Certain job markets may increase in 2009 especially with a new president and administration. With president-elect Barack Obama's economic stimulus policies, new job trends will most likely appear, according to Jobfox, an online career site. Obama hopes to establish or keep 2.5 million working positions during the next two years.
Jobfox provides Obama's top plans with the significant jobs:
-- Building of roads, bridges, transit and rural broadband: Increased positions include construction managers, project managers, civil engineers or telecommunications engineers.
-- Improved supervision of financial markets: Important jobs include compliance accountants, internal auditors, tax accountants or government regulators.
-- Energy independence: Key positions include electrical engineers, mechanical engineers, power grid managers or biofuels chemists.
-- Health care transformation: Significant jobs include nurses, information technology specialists, bioinformatics specialists or information security specialists.
-- Volunteering: Important positions include social workers, administrators or translators.
"Epic changes are ahead throughout the professional landscape," says Rob McGovern, CEO of Jobfox. "It's like in 1991, when we didn't know the Internet was coming. New job titles will emerge, many of which haven't been invented yet. Savvy professionals will be prepared to take advantage of new opportunities."
