The US Department of Labor issued a report yesterday detailing expected changes in US job growth or employment over the next decade.

Employment in Services to Dominate US Job Growth

The US expects service related jobs to constitute virtually all (96%) jobs created through 2018. The health care industry employment constituting a significant portion.

In addition, the US expects a third of new job openings to require educational attainments past the high school level.
