The U.S. economy is still grappling with labor shortages and record-high inflation rates on the heels of a global pandemic — but not all hope is lost. Many industries may make an impressive recovery. 

LendingTree, an online lending marketplace, analyzed the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics data on nearly 760 jobs, scoring occupations out of 100 based on which are likely to have the best outlook by 2030. By examining the projected percentage of employees in each occupation by 2030, how many workers will be added in the next decade, the annual number of job openings and median annual wages, LendingTree found that most industries will likely grow in the coming years. But some jobs will outpace others.

The number of workers is predicted to grow by 32.5% by 2030, with an average number of annual job openings of 51,800. The median annual wage in 2021 was $101,340. 

Score: 100.00
