IN BRIEF: 7 Lucrative Jobs from Obama’s Stimulus Plan

Tuesday, June 23, 2009

A recent article posted by Yahoo! HotJobs gives insight about the top paying jobs that will result from Obama's Stimulus Plan. According to the article, he has recently signed two bills to improve funding and create more jobs - in a wide variety of fields and with good salaries.  And the best news? Many of the jobs don't require a four-year degree, so job searchers can break into these fields quickly, with an associates degree or just a certification program. One example is a Solar Panel Installer.

Solar Panel Installer
President Obama has made cleaner, greener energy use a top administration priority. The ARRA includes funding for the installation of solar panels to cut energy use at many federal buildings ... and that means someone with an understanding of electric, water and heating systems will need to climb up on the rooftops and put up these systems. Training programs may be as short as six months, Shatkin notes.
Median annual salary: $44,460

Obama's new plan is going to make more jobs like this available. Make sure your resume and cover letter are updated, and be ready to attack the job market as more positions become available.
