Despite the news of job losses and unemployment numbers, there is indeed\u00a0strong employment opportunity\u00a0in selected parts of this economy. In fact several industry segments have actually continued to add jobs throughout this whole recession. Indeed the\u00a0jobs data shows bright spots\u00a0\u2014 expanding industries that promise new, stable career opportunities.<\/p>\n

\u2022 Health care<\/strong><\/p>\n

Hiring has continued non-stop at hospital, medical clinics and doctors’ offices.<\/p>\n

Jobs in demand: nurses, lab technicians, physician assistants.<\/em><\/p>\n

\u2022 Government<\/strong><\/p>\n

Cities, counties and school districts continue to\u00a0add a great number of jobs\u00a0— seven times as many as the federal government.<\/p>\n

Jobs in demand: educators, police, firefighters and workers connected to infrastructure such as roads.<\/em><\/p>\n

\u2022 Energy<\/strong><\/p>\n

Oil, gas, coal and electricity production have kept adding jobs, although the pace has slowed since energy prices declined last year. City utility jobs have also continued to increase.<\/p>\n

According to\u00a0BLS data, about 4.4 million people got hired into new jobs in January (2009), and 3 million more openings were available. Granted, those numbers are down sharply from the start of the recession, but don’t let anyone tell you there are “no jobs.”<\/p>\n
