The number of management and executive positions across the United States is expected to rise 13.6 percent within this decade, according to the Bureau of Labor Statistics. Based on this information, the Bureau of Labor Statistics expects that this growth will result in the creation of more than 5 million management and executive positions by 2010. Recognizing the growing potential to advance their careers, many professionals are wondering how they can land one of these high-level positions.
Indianapolis, IN (PRWeb) January 16, 2007 -- Climbing the corporate ladder may be getting easier. According to the U.S. Department of Labor's Bureau of Labor Statistics, the number of management and executive positions across the United States is expected to rise 13.6 percent within this decade. The Bureau of Labor Statistics also estimates that this growth will result in the creation of more than 5 million management and executive positions. This comes as promising news for professionals hoping to land just one of these opportunities, according to Wendy Enelow and Louise Kursmark, co-authors of the new book Expert Resumes for Managers and Executives, Second Edition.
In addition to the growth of high-level positions, the avenues available to pursue these opportunities are broader than ever. "Today's jobs are everywhere--from multinational manufacturing conglomerates to the small retail sales companies in your neighborhood; from high-tech electronics firms to 100-year-old farming operations in rural communities; from financial institutions to health-care facilities in every city and town. The jobs are everywhere," say Enelow and Kursmark.
One career avenue, in particular, offers job seekers of all employment levels, from entry-level to executive, opportunities to land a hot job in a booming industry. According to Enelow and Kursmark, the technology industry is the front runner as the number-one growth industry over the next 10 years and offers job seekers the most management opportunities. Despite being the leading industry for growth, technology is hardly the only avenue offering job seekers the opportunity to advance their careers. Other opportunities include positions in health care, real estate, sales, associations, non-for-profits, human resources, accounting, and many more fields and industries.
"Management and executive career opportunities are on the rise, and opportunities are everywhere. It might take a bit more time than in years past to find the 'right' positions, but the positions are there," say Enelow and Kursmark.
What's the key to landing one of these high-level positions? Enelow and Kursmark say, "Arm yourself with a powerful resume and cover letter, identify your most appropriate marketing channels, and start your search today. You're destined to reach the next rung on your career ladder."
