Marty Nemko’s job ratings are based on both objective and subjective criteria, from the Occupational Outlook Handbook, to conversations with various people. This article includes lists for excellent, good, fair, and poor careers for 2006. Among his top picks are librarians, social workers, physical therapists, registered nurses, and scientists — that’s good news for Simmons students in these programs!

To further explore a career on this list, visit the Simmons Career Resource e-Library pate at http://my.simmons.edu/libraries/collections/career/
