The best career to have this year is nurse practitioner, according to U.S. News & World Report’s annual rankings of top jobs. The media company credited an increase in demand for health care roles for pushing nurse practitioners into the top spot for 2024. 

Last year, the top job was a software developer, but health care jobs have consistently dominated the list. 

“Health care workers are critical to our overall well-being,” said Erika Giovanetti, money expert at U.S. News & World Report. “The 10-year outlook for the occupation is strong with one in three of the top 100 jobs being in health care — an increase from one in four in the 2023 rankings.”
