White collar, blue collar … new collar? There’s a new job classification that has emerged over the past few years and has been appearing in career conversations with increasing frequency: new collar jobs.
Unlike traditional office jobs (white collar) or labor jobs (blue collar), new collar jobs are newer, mostly technical jobs that require a specialized skill set. These jobs don’t necessarily require a four-year college degree. In addition to tech roles, new collar workers can also be found in health care positions such as certain types of nursing and in the mortgage industry.
