One job that was recommended for me was a zoologist and wildlife biologist. I would like to have a job like this because I love animals and wildlife, so it would be great to study and learn more about them for a career.
Salary: MEDIAN for 1 year- $71,440
HOURLY wage median- $34.35

Job Outlook: Biological scientists held somewhere around 91,300 jobs in 2008. Forty percent of them were employed through federal, state, and local governments. Some worked in testing labratories while others rokred in educational institutions, the National Institutes of Health, and other places too.

Education needed: A Bachealor's degree is typical and more than five years of experience is usually required.

Working conditions: Most biologists spend their time in labratories doing research or in offices writing their work. Zoologists, though, generally spend their time in the "field" doing strenuous activity and in primitive living conditions for long periods at a time. A forty-hour week is most common.

I would prefer to be a Zoologist when it comes down to the working conditions. I don't want to spend most of my days inside.


Another job that appeals to me from the recommendatins is a Phsycologist. I like to help people and generally pick my own hours and who I work with.

Salary: MEDIAN for one year- $101,550
HOURLY wage median- $41.41

Job Outlook: Government agencies employed psychologists in correctional facilities, hospitals, teaching, and many other places too. Thirty-four percent were their own boss in 2008, having their own business.

Education Needed: Masters Degree and Bachelor's degree are required plus more than five years of training/experience.

Working Conditions: Depending on the level and field that you are in, you have the option of setting your own hours, working weekends or weekdays, and choosing your clients. You will most likely work in an office setting.
