What jobs seem to be holding there own?

Which jobs in this new economy seem to be doing better or holding there own? This is also a good question and there is another good answer from the people at market watch. Check them out and see the statistics it will probably surprise you. It might not but some of the rates were surprising to me that these people are getting paid. Another interesting point is the temp jobs part. Any way enjoy and don't forget to subscribe. Thanks.

 

Tempered view of professional hiring

The segment of the economy that has added the most jobs since the recession ended in June 2009 is classified as “professional and business services.” About 2.12 million jobs have been created for architects, engineers, scientists, managers, computer geeks, and yes, journalists.

This is normally high-paying work with an average hourly wage of $28.41 an hour, which translates into $1,136 a week. But there is a wide range. Some occupations such as computer design pay more than $40 an hour and others like upholstery cleaning pay less than $20 an hour.

Unfortunately, almost half of the new professional jobs since mid-2009 were created at temporary-hiring agencies. The work doesn’t always lead to a full-time job and these positions pay far less: $15.74 an hour. Many people clearly like temp jobs, but others have no choice.

The percentage of temps in the private-sector workforce has nearly matched an all-time high of 2.4% set at the end of the Internet boom in early 2000.
