OK. You know you deserve a job promotion! You've earned it. So, now what do you do? A nice job promotion is one of those things almost everyone wants. But no one is bold enough to ask for it. If you're determined to get ahead and are willing to follow some simple steps, you can move the odds of a job promotion significantly in your favor. Here are 9 proven steps that can set you on the path to a good job promotion: 1. Under NO circumstances do you ever ask for a job promotion! 2. Get yourself a mentor. Someone a level or two above you that you feel comfortable with . . . with whom you can talk and get advice. 3. Determine the factors that go into promotions where you work? For example, does your boss select person she feels comfortable with -- that she hangs out with? Or does she base decisions solely on performance? You need to develop that skills that match up with your boss' expectations. 4. Let your boss know you have more to offer. For example during a performance review you can ask, "What more can I do for the organization." Or "What more can I do to make myself more valuable?" 5. Write down a list of your accomplishments. Be very precise and use quantifiable results. Then give the list to your boss for review in advance of your performance review. 6. Tell your boss you're looking for further training, e.g. a computer course or specialty seminar. Send an unspoken message that you're interested in moving up the ladder. 7. Get involved in civic or philanthropic activities supported by those at the top of your organization. 8. Show your initiative by recommending new ideas or projects. Send a message to your boss that you have something more of value to offer. 9. Look for ways to make a contribution by volunteering your extra time, e.g. after work hours. As I was reviewing these important steps, it occurred to me that many of these requirement apply to acquiring a new job in the first place. For example, when we're in the job market we put most of our emphasis on writing and distributing a good resume. In fact, an employer is much more interested in what you bring to the table going forward. He/she could care less what you used to for someone else. So, whether you're looking to advance yourself on the job--or trying to land and exciting new job--the emphasis is the same. You have to offer an employer solutions to his/her problems and show how you bring value to the organization.

Top US Jobs
Our list of top ten jobs in demand in the U.S. was based on the Bureau of Labor Statistics’ (BLS) overview of current job occupations with the largest numerical growth. (See screenshot image of BLS list – click for a larger view). Unfortunately however, the turnover rates for some of these jobs are also high; workers often leave to look for less strenuous jobs or where there are better salary offers. Hence, employers are frequently seeking suitable replacements.
Find out the details as well as the benefits and drawbacks about each of them to serve as your career planning guide.
Find out the details as well as the benefits and drawbacks about each of them to serve as your career planning guide.
(1) Registered Nurses
Registered Nurses (RN) continue to top the list, inasmuch as the shortage for this profession is still unmet. According to labor market indicators, although the number of US NCLEX-RN Board passers doubled to 134,000, this was not enough to meet the 581,500 new RN jobs that was estimated in 2008.
Pay Rates
The National Pay DATA disclose that average hourly rates range from $22.08 - $30.80, while the annualized figures range from $46,477 to $67,195. Compensation packages include bonuses and profit sharing as well as health care benefits. Jobs are usually found in companies engaged in providing health care services, hospitals and providers of long-term or home-care rehabilitation and nursing.
Career Outlook
RNs with impeccable performances are being offered better career options in private offices operated by independent physicians and as private nurses for outpatient treatments. Offers include family-friendly work hours, a better working environment and in some cases, travel opportunities in accordance with the patient’s lifestyle.
Competition is stiff, hence, it would be best for those who take up nursing degrees to acquire as much skills and knowledge as possible, including that of advanced practice nursing. Those who manifest excellence in early internship engagements are being retained, and signed-in as soon as they graduate and pass the board.
Others are being offered teaching jobs to supplement the post-secondary institute's faculty resources, as more and more students are becoming interested in finding high-paying jobs as Registered Nurses.
Places/US Cities with Most Demand and Highest Salary Offers
The top US cities with the highest demand for registered nurses are (1) Rochester, MN; (2) Gainesville, FL; (3) Ann Arbor MI; (4) Morgantown, WY and (5) Durham, NC; where pay rates range from $27.49 to $ 32.00.
The US states with the highest paying RN job opportunities are led by California, offering the highest rate at $40.90 per hour, followed by Massachusetts, Hawaii, Maryland and New Jersey at $36.05 per hour.
(2) Home Health Aides
Home health aides find work in licensed home care hospices that usually receive government or charitable funding as financial support. Their main responsibility is to assist the hospices' clients who may be chronically ill, disabled, a senior citizen or cognitively impaired. Clients are usually outpatients requiring medical and other forms of health care assistance on a short-term basis.
Tasks include performing housekeeping work as well as assisting the patient in personal grooming and hygiene. Depending on their personal capacities, home health aides can work part-time or in full and take care of more than one patient. Hence, flexibility of time is possible.
Pay Rate
The National Pay Data for home health aides discloses average hourly pay rates that range from $8.35 - $11.14, and annualized at $17,556 - $24,530, which includes overtime pay, bonuses and profit sharing. About 79% of those hiring home health aides do not include health care benefits as part of compensation package.
Career Outlook
A home health aide is required to undergo on the job training under a registered nurse or other experienced health care workers. An aide may be a high school graduate, but it is important for him or her to be emotionally stable and with a generally cheerful disposition. He or she should also pass certain medical tests as well as possess a clean slate in driving records.
In 2008, about 1.7 million found work as home health aide; hence, making it one of the top jobs in demand. However, job vacancies are high due to faster turnover rates. Most individuals who left their jobs found the tasks involved too taxing both physically and emotionally, while compensation is too low.
Home health aide workers could advance as Certified Nurse Assistants and earn at a range of $19,950- $27,076. Others take up additional BS Nursing courses; pass the NCLEX exams to become Registered Nurses, in order to find better paying job opportunities.

What field has he best-rated job, and 5 of the top 10 highest paid, highest growth jobs? …
What field has…
•
…the best-rated job, and 5 of the top 10 highest paid, highest growth
jobs?
•
…shown strong job growth in the face of outsourcing?
•
…a looming severe shortage in college graduates?
Computer Science!
Computer Science (CS) jobs are among the highest paid, highest satisfaction jobs of the
projected highest growth jobs through 2014. Growth rates for CS jobs have solidly
exceeded the outsourcing rate and employment has exceeded the dot-com boom, yet
students listing CS as a probable major have dropped by 70% because outsourcing is
perceived as a threat. A severe shortage of CS graduates looms, and promises excellent
opportunities for savvy students.
Noteworthy Facts:

In April 2006, more Americans were employed in IT than at any time in the
nation’s history. [3]
•
In May 2004, “U.S. IT employment was 17% higher than in 1999 – 5% higher
than the bubble in 2000 and showing an 8% growth in the [following] year …
the compound annual growth rate of IT wages has been about 4% since 1999
while inflation has been just 2% per year… Such growth rates swamp predictions
of the outsourcing job loss in the U.S., which most studies estimate to be 2% to
3% per year for the next decade.” [4]
•
“According to the National Science Foundation, the need for science and
engineering graduates will grow 26%, or 1.25 million, between now and
2012. The number of jobs requiring technical training is growing at five times the
rate of other occupations. And U.S. schools are nowhere near meeting the
demand, according to multiple studies.” [5]
•
The percentage of college freshmen listing computer science as their
probable major fell 70% between 2000 and 2004. [6]
Considering decreasing supply and increasing demand, there is much promise for today’s
CS majors!
