Want to Improve your Prospects for Jobs? Become Better Educated!

For every job opening on October 4, 2010, there were 4.4 unemployed people reports Time magazine in its January 17 issue. Who is getting these jobs? Those who are better educated.

According to Moddy's, an analytical service working with figures provided by the Bureau of Labor and Statistics, workers with a graduate, bachelor's, associate degree, or even some college experience, will get an increasing share of all jobs that are created. Time says that in 2011, the better educated control 60.1% of all new jobs. By 2015, the projection rises to 66.4%.

Women have the edge over men because they are better educated and are more likely to enter the careers expanding the men by 3 to 2 margin, earn college degrees. Whether you are a male or a female, those who reach the top positions will be well educated, technically competent, and prepared for the global
workplace.
