Over the past two years, the pandemic has caused record numbers of people across the world to experience layoffs and job shifts.

As businesses close or change shape, thousands have found themselves going back to the drawing board as they rethink the employment and career opportunities that may be available to them.

If you’re one of the masses who has experienced a job shift, or you’re doubting your future job security if you stay in your current field, there is some good news.

While hospitality jobs, travel and transportation jobs, and jobs in the arts have all taken a hard hit, there are other fields that are actually booming in the wake of the global pandemic.

Today, Infinity Staffing will help you explore 5 of the most in demand jobs for the future so that you can make the best career decisions for you in 2022.

1) Computer Related Occupations 

According to Business Insider, computer occupations like web administrators, computer systems analysts, online marketing and advertising experts, and software developers are at an all-time high.

As more businesses move online, the demand for these jobs of the future will continue to rise in 2022 and is predicted to continue that trajectory into the next decade.

Generally, a bachelor’s degree or equivalent experience is needed to gain entry into these fields, but in some cases a certification and/or job training may be available.

If you’re technically minded, love marketing, or have other experience in software development or online business growth, now may be a great time to make the shift into a computer related field!

2) Sales Representatives

While sales in some markets have seen a major decrease (like travel and hospitality) others are seeing quite a spike. Pharmaceutical sales, real estate sales, and software sales remain high paying careers…and are also fast growing.

That being said, if you’re looking for a solid entry level path into a sales career, companies like Zoom, Amazon, and Adobe are often recruiting new talent at a competitive salary.

3) Home Health Aids 

Several careers in the health field are expected to continue growing, including nurse practitioners and registered nurses. But even if you don’t have a degree in nursing, a great and fast-growing option for jobs of the future is the home health aid worker.

More often than not home health aides work in private homes to assist elderly or ill patients and clients through their activities of daily living. And as your experience grows, you can take on private clients and increase your rates over time.

A formal education is not usually a precondition, but if you work as an aid in a nursing home or assisted living facility, on the job training and testing may be required.

4) Wind Turbine Technicians 

According to CNBC one of the fastest growing trade jobs in 2022 will be the wind turbine technician.

These professionals install, inspect, and maintain wind turbines across the country. If you enjoy working with your hands outdoors, and aren’t afraid of heights, there are certifications available for this field.

Depending on the program you enter, you can expect to be certified in 6 months – 2 years time. This is one of the most in demand jobs for the future, and almost always offers a competitive salary, great benefits, and of course beautiful views!

5) Human Resources 

If you’ve ever helped a company recruit, hire, onboard, and manage the benefits and well being of staff, a career in human resources may be perfect for you.

As businesses tackle complex and ever changing employment laws in 2022, this profession is expected to remain one of the high demand jobs of the future over the next decade.

In some cases, a bachelor’s degree is required, but with some past on the job hiring and recruiting experience, you may be able to land a position without a formal degree.
