What are the most-searched jobs in the U.S?

It’s no secret that the digital age has changed the way we look for jobs and careers, but it can still be useful to see which jobs have been going strong throughout this period of technological advancement. According to Google’s 2021 job trends report, here are the top 10 most-searched jobs in the U.S.

1. Real estate agent

In states like Michigan, Louisiana, and South Carolina where housing prices have been on a decline for several years, real estate agents have become incredibly popular among unemployed workers who are looking to make ends meet during a difficult economic climate. In fact, many people in these states claim that it’s nearly impossible to buy or sell property without an agent by your side to help negotiate with potential buyers or sellers and act as an intermediary between buyer and seller.

2. Flight attendant

Many flight attendants begin their careers with an airline as a way to see if flying is for them. However, they do not have to be pilots to become flight attendants, and they do not need any formal training because they receive on-the-job training from their airlines.

 3.Notary

Notaries public are appointed by a state government to serve as impartial witnesses to important documents, such as a will or loan documents. The position is typically part-time and allows people with flexible schedules to have an income stream while working other jobs or pursuing other interests. State requirements vary, but many notaries must have some education—such as a high school diploma or associate’s degree—and pass an exam before being certified by their state government.

4. Therapist 

The number of people searching for jobs as a therapist is increasing by 10% each year, so it’s no surprise that salary rates can also increase by an average of 5% each year, which means you could be earning a higher wage every time you renew your contract with Google. This job isn’t going anywhere anytime soon—in fact, if more and more people continue to search for therapist on Google, chances are we will see even higher increases in salary over time!

5. Pilot 

Many pilots enjoy high salaries and may even become CEOs or small business owners once they start their own aviation company, so it’s no surprise that pilot is one of America’s top searches on Google. And, as an added bonus, you don’t necessarily need a degree to get your foot in a door—in fact, there are many piloting schools where you can learn everything you need to know on your way up to that coveted captain’s chair.

6. Firefighter

The top job in 2019, with 15,910 job postings and a median base salary of $48,000 (or $23.42 per hour), was for firefighters, according to Indeed data scientist David Galenson . Firefighters run into burning buildings and help people get out; they don’t need to have any special skills or educational background. Still, they deal with traumatic situations every day.

7. Personal trainer

The BLS estimates that job opportunities for personal trainers will increase by 40 percent between 2020 and 2025, an excellent rate of growth compared to all other occupations (11 percent).

Therefore, if you’re a fitness buff with a good knowledge of exercise and nutrition and you want to start working out or even just get started as a career then being a Personal trainer may be just what you have been looking for!
