High school and college students in the United States today, as well as others who plan to work in this country, have one important question about their futures: Will they find a job? There’s no easy answer, of course. But let’s look at some of the recent changes in the U.S. job market and see if we can make some predictions for future job hunters.
A. good way to begin is to look at the American work force and how it’s changing. Clearly, the most important change has been the shift from a manufacturing economy to a service economy. Let’s define both of these terms. First, a service economy is one in which most workers provide services--that is they do something instead of making something. They don’t produce a specific product; they serve customers or clients, like your doctor does, or your hair stylist, or airline pilots, salesclerks, etc. Now, in contrast, people who actually produce things -- like cars, furniture or clothing--are part of the manufacturing economy.
So again, the point here is that we have changed from a manufacturing economy to a service economy. The following numbers will show you just how big a change this has been. One hundred years ago, 80% of workers produced goods; today only about 20% do. Economists predict that this change is going to continue in the same direction, in fact, by the year 2000, nine out of ten workers will supply services.
