Clinical Laboratory
Scientist (Lab Technologist) - Ranked in Top 50 Jobs in America by CNN Money.com!
April 12, 2006: 10:03 AM EDT
NEW YORK (MONEY) - To find the best jobs in America, MONEY Magazine and Salary.com, a leading provider of employee
compensation data and software, began by assembling a list of positions that the Bureau of Labor Statistics projects will
grow at an above-average rate over 10 years and that require at least a bachelor's degree.
Using Salary.com compensation data, Money eliminated jobs with average pay below $50,000; total employment of
less than 15,000; dangerous work environments; or fewer than 800 annual job openings, including both new and replacement positions.
Next they rated positions by stress levels, flexibility in hours and working environment, creativity, and how easy it
is to enter and advance in the field.
Money then ranked the jobs, giving double weight to compensation and percentage growth. Data for "the
Top 50 Jobs" can be seen by clicking the link below.
Any job that fell in the bottom third of two job-satisfaction categories, or in the pay or growth category, was removed from
consideration for the top 10.
