How To Find A Career You Can Fall Head Over Heels For 
Small Business Bookkeeping – What Are Your Options? 
One of the most important things to look out for when choosing a profession is whether or not you are passionate for it. It is always better to let your heart pull you towards something lucrative. With this in mind, here are several jobs that are expected to continue gaining in popularity in 2018. We are, of course, considering factors such as median salary, the demand and the prospects of professional growth.
Data analysts
The fact is that the world we live in today is becoming more and more data-driven. Now, with growing trends such as big data and the Internet of Things, it is safe to assume that the job of data analyst might become a major prospect for those looking for career opportunities in 2018. This career path, however, is best for those good at research and documentation, as well as those who are great at discerning patterns and correlations.
Translators and interpreters
As the national boundaries are quickly getting erased from the landscape of the modern business world, the only barrier separating people with same interest is often the logistic one. Although translation gadgets and software have made some significant advancements over the last couple of years, the human role in translation and interpretation industry is still irreplaceable. Subtle contextual variances and hints can make all the difference, especially when it comes to multi-million dollar contracts, which is yet another reason why these jobs are so well paid and in such a high demand.
Financial advisor
The position of a financial advisor is growing in popularity year after year and there are strong indications that this trend will continue in the following year. The median income for a financial advisor is just short of $65,000 making it a more than a lucrative opportunity. While the first association with this profession might be related to startups and SMBs, individuals are in need of financial advisors like they never were before. Issues like savings, retirement provisions, wills and even things as mundane as taxes can all be handled much more efficiently with a financial advisor on your side.
Human resources
As the number of SMBs and startups reaches its all-time high, the number of people needed for human resources is approaching its peak. In fact, this massive demand for these professionals resulted in the rise in the number of companies which outsource their HR. Needless to say, this only opened more and more HR workplaces.
Civil engineers
At the end of the day, the job of a civil engineer is also more popular than it ever was before. Nowadays, no decent construction company can wrap up a major public work without a civil engineer to monitor the project. Their main job is to watch closely over the impact that a construction of infrastructures like roads, dams, power plants and sewerage systems has on the environment.
Furthermore, different regions have different environmental laws and regulations. For instance, if a major construction company was hired to do a major work in Australia, they would have to look for an Australian civil engineer, same as they would look for the local workforce, equipment and even look to hire a crane in Australia.
Of course, this list is far from complete, seeing as how no list would be elaborate enough to encompass all industries and occupations worth considering in 2018. The reasons why we picked these exact five job opportunities is due to the fact that they all belong to different spheres of interest. What this means for you is that you have a great variety of choice and a unique opportunity to pick something right from the intersection of your passion and your financial needs.
