Hot jobs now

"Yes, it's been a jobless recovery to date. But that doesn't mean there's been no hiring.
August 29, 2003: 12:59 PM EDT
NEW YORK (CNN/Money) - Dismal though the labor market has been, there are some industries that are have job opportunities thanks to geopolitical, business or demographic trends.
Among them are health care, agriculture, energy, consumer financial services, insurance, security and energy.
Now you may be thinking, "Yeah, yeah, I know, healthcare's hot. But I'm not a nurse."
Well, you're probably not a farmer, either. But that doesn't mean you might not find a fertile career in agriculture.

That's because the jobs available in some of the hottest industries today aren't necessarily poster-children for those areas.
Take healthcare. Yes, there is an acute shortage of nurses, but that's not the only job available. "There are opportunities for many skills sets and fields," said Steve Pogorzelski, North America president for the job site Monster.com, which has seen a 30 percent increase in postings related to health care over the past six months. Among them are jobs for accountants, information technology specialists or administrative workers. "
(excerpted)
This was actually a pretty encouraging article, indicating which industries had job opportunities, and IT consultants were in demand (though the salary range was a little alarming).

Which is to say, the jobs which are being offshored. IT and BPO.
We're going to have to keep digging, I think.
