2014美国薪资最高/增长最快的职业
美國勞工統計局（Bureau of Labor Statistics）發布其年度職業前景手冊，該國薪資最高和增長最快的職業可能會讓人頗為驚訝今年的職業手冊詳細介紹了大約580個職業，涉及職位描述、學歷要求和培訓、薪資和未來增長潛力；這些職業被劃分為25個領域。
今年在商業和金融領域中，管理分析師工作的薪資最高。據勞工統計局稱，2012年5月，管理分析師年度工資中位數是78,600美元，在未來10年，該工作預計增長19%，相比之下，所有職業的增長幅度預計為11%。
管理分析師究竟是做什麼工作的？他們往往是就如何通過削減成本和增加營收提高盈利提供意見的諮詢公司。
在商業和金融領域中下一個最高薪工作是金融分析師。它的薪資中位數是76,950美元，預計增長速度是16%。
以下是薪資中位數最高的前十大商業和金融類工作：
管理分析師：78,600美元
金融分析師：76,950美元
金融考官：75,800美元
後勤人員：72,780美元
預算分析師：69,280美元
個人理財顧問：67,520美元
會計師、審計師：63,550美元
保險承包人：62,870美元

被勞工統計局列入「證券、大宗商品和金融理財銷售代理」的金融證券師歸入銷售領域。這一職位的薪資中位數是71,720美元，增長潛力與該國的平均水平大致相當，不過要落後於個人理財顧問。
縱觀所有領域，醫療保健領域的工作佔據了增長最快和薪資最高的大多數席位。
勞工統計局表示，該國薪資最高的工作是口腔頜面外科醫生，2012年，他們的薪資中位數是187,200美元。 與他們處於同等水平的還有主治醫生、外科醫生、產科醫生、婦科醫生、內科醫生、麻醉師和牙齒矯正醫師，他們的薪資中位數同樣是187,200美元。
該國增長最快的工作是什麼？據勞工統計局稱，是心理學家，並預計這一職位從現在到2022年將實現53%的增長。他們的年均薪資中位數：83,580美元。

另外, The Wall Street Journal也根据美国劳工统计局的统计，发表了文章”Orthodontists Earn More Than CEOs: 10 Facts About Wages in America“表示在美国，牙齿矫正医生的薪资比CEO还高，平均收入在USD196,270/year，CEO是USD178,400.

The average U.S. orthodontist earns $196,270. The average CEO makes $178,400.

Those numbers, released Tuesday by the Labor Department, might come as a shock in some boardrooms. But they probably don’t catch parents of crooked-teeth teenagers off guard. Both positions counted among the nation’s ten best-paying occupations last year, according to a ranking of 821 jobs tracked by the government.
The discrepancy likely reflects the fact that U.S. chief executives (248,760) far outnumber orthodontists (5,570). A good number of those CEOs likely earn modest salaries at small companies.
The comparison is among several tidbits found in the latest data covering 2013. Here are 10 more:
1. The median pay for an athlete or sports competitor is $39,050, which is less than the Miami Heat pays LeBron James per quarter (of a basketball game.)
2. One out of every 17 jobs in America is held by a retail salesperson or a cashier. There are 4.5 million retail salespeople, the most of any occupation. That’s followed by cashiers at 3.3 million. Average pay for those jobs: $12.20 per hour for retail sales and $9.82 for cashiers.
3. Anesthesiologists make the highest average salary of any profession: $235,070 a year. They even earn more than the doctors performing the operations. Surgeons have the second-highest average salary at $233,150.
4. The average annual pay of a nonfarm animal caretaker ($22,510) exceeds that of a child-care worker ($21,490).
5. Of the 10 largest occupations, only registered nurses — with an average annual salary of $68,910 — earn more than the national average for all occupations ($46,440).
6. Both athletic trainers and service-unit operators in the oil, gas and mining industry are precisely at the median annual salary for all U.S. occupations: $42,790.
7. The job with the lowest average hourly pay is a fast-food cook, at $9.07. Those burger flippers (and their peers) are in one of just three occupations with average annual pay of less than $19,000 a year. The others are shampooers – yes, shampooers — and fast-food servers.
8. Operators of nuclear-power reactors earn an average of $78,410 annually. That’s less than real-estate brokers ($82,380) and funeral-service managers ($80,250).
9. The U.S. boasts 4.6 public-relations specialists for every reporter or correspondent. Those PR pros earn 40% more a year on average than journalists.
10. The median annual salary for economists is $93,070, which they’d probably say is more meaningful than their average salary of $101,450.
