The Best and Worst Jobs in 2011

I don't remember when the job outlook was as bad for graduates as it is today. Career Cast has posted their annual listing of 200 of the best and worst jobs in 2011. Software Engineer was named the top job with an annual income of $87,000. Teachers were #100 on the list, and the worst job was Roustabout, a person who labors on an oil rig or pipeline.

If you know a teacher who is looking for a job, tell them about this super section on Jobs for Teachers. Resources include resume templates, interview tips and much more!
