PART II

The Best Jobs Lists:
Jobs Not Sensitive
to Recessions

This part contains many interesting lists, and it’s a good place for you to start using the book. Here are some suggestions for using the lists to explore career options that are likely to be less sensitive than most to economic slowdowns:

   The table of contents at the beginning of this book presents a complete listing of the list titles in this section. You can browse the lists or use the table of contents to find those that interest you most.

   We gave the lists clear titles, so most require little explanation. We provide comments for each group of lists.

   As you review the lists of jobs, one or more of the jobs may appeal to you enough that you want to seek additional information. As this happens, mark that job (or, if someone else will be using this book, write it on a separate sheet of paper) so that you can look up the description of the job in Part III.
