Why healthcare jobs rank so well
The team at U.S. News describes good jobs are those that “pay well, challenge us, are a good match for our talents and skills, aren't too stressful, offer room to advance and provide a satisfying work-life balance.”
They say that their annual list of the top 100 jobs are ranked according to their ability to offer this mix of qualities. These careers are also ones that are hiring, so the number of allied healthcare jobs is part of the reason.
