If you're itching for a career change in 2015, here are some fast-growing, high-paying options that have yet to hit the mainstream.
Good news, job seekers: employment opportunities look bright in 2015. Staffing levels are expected to rise 19%, according to ManpowerGroup’s annual Employment Outlook Survey. Robust hiring gains are forecast for the “usual suspects,” says Payscale.com’s vice president Tim Low—namely retail, healthcare, and technology. But peel back those broad categories, and you’ll uncover high demand for unique talents and skill sets and a bunch of new jobs you may not even know existed.
“As we shift away from conventional jobs and move forward into the information economy, there are a growing number of opportunities for workers to transfer skills in seemingly unrelated fields,” says Stephanie Thomas, researcher and program director at the Institute for Compensation Studies at Cornell University.
Additionally, job titles are becoming more diverse, says Scott Dobroski, career trends analyst at Glassdoor, an employer review website. “Employers are looking for innovative ways to do business and are therefore [allocating money] to brand-new positions,” he says.
So if you’re itching for a change in 2015, here are some ways to break into these high-paying, still-under-the-radar careers—all of which are growing at a rate far greater than the 11% national average.

NUCLEAR MEDICINE TECHNOLOGIST
방사능 의료기술자
병원에서 주로 쓰는 컴퓨터단층촬영기(CT), 자기공명영상(MRI) 장비를 다루는 전문가를 말한다. 한 번의 실수로도 본인이나 환자에게 방사선 노출이라는 심각한 의료사고를 일으킬 수 있지만, 정해진 사용법을 지키면 전혀 문제가 없다. 보건·의료 분야에 대한 관심이 높아지고 있어 유망직종으로 꼽힌다.
특히 의학전문대학원을 졸업하지 않고도 4년제 관련 학과를 마친 뒤 자격증을 취득하면 된다는 점도 장점이다. 미국 내 평균 연봉은 7만1120달러(7692만 원) 정도로 2022년까지 20% 이상 성장할 분야로 분석됐다.
What it is: Don’t let the title scare you off; the position only calls for a degree from an accredited program, so no med school required. This health care professional operates specialized equipment to do computed tomography (CT) scans, magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), and other imaging tests that physicians and surgeons use to diagnose conditions and plan treatments.
How your skills translate: Attention to detail and good interpersonal skills—already at the heart of your current job—are crucial. Nuclear medicine technologists must follow instructions to the letter when operating equipment; even a minor error can result in overexposure to radiation. A background in math and/or science is a plus.
Why it’s growing: “Jobs are developing rapidly at the intersection of health care and technology,” says John Reed, senior executive director at IT staffing firm Robert Half Technology.
Education requirements: 1- to 4-year accreditation. For more information on requirements, check out the Society of Nuclear Medicine and Molecular Imaging (SNMMI), or use this state-by-state map for a list of accredited programs in your region.
Average salary: $71,120
Projected job growth through 2022: 20%

MEDICAL EQUIPMENT REPAIRER
의료장비 수리전문가
병원 등 의료기관에서 사용되는 각종 첨단 의료장비를 관리하는 사람들이다. 2년제 전문대학교에서 의료장비 관련 전공을 이수하는 게 필수다. 역시 보건·웰빙에 대한 관심이 높아지는 추세 덕분에 2022년까지 30% 이상 성장할 분야로 꼽혔다. 미국내 평균 연봉은 4만4180달러(4778만 원) 정도다.
What it is: Someone who installs, maintains, and repairs patient care equipment. However, given the sensitive nature of medical technology, specialized repair skills are required. These can be obtained through an associate’s degree in biomedical equipment technology or engineering; workers who operate less-complicated equipment (e.g., hospital beds and electric wheelchairs), meanwhile, can typically learn entirely on the job.
How your skills translate: Troubleshooting, dexterity, analytical thinking, and technical expertise—skills already in your toolbox—make for an efficient medical equipment repairer.
Why it’s growing: The increasing demand for health care services assures rapid growth for this specialty.
Education requirements: Typically a 2-year degree in biomedical equipment technology or engineering. Go here for information about obtaining a certification for Biomedical Equipment Technician (BMET).
Average salary: $44,180
Projected job growth through 2022: 30%

DIGITAL RISK OFFICER
인터넷 보안전문가
각종 해킹으로부터 기업 내 비밀과 고객 정보 등을 보호하는 일을 전담하는 인력들이다. 각종 소매업체는 물론 금융사들의 고객정보 유출 사고가 잦은 현실에서 없어서는 안 되기 때문에 수요가 폭증할 것으로 보인다.
최근 관심을 끌었던 ‘소니 해킹’ 사건도 이 분야 전문가의 존재감을 높여준다. 2∼4년제 대학에서 정보기술(IT) 보안 분야를 전공한 뒤 자격증을 취득하면 된다.
디지털·인터넷 분야 관련 기업이라면 반드시 이들을 필요로 하기 때문에 유망 직종이다. 미국 내 평균 연봉은 15만3602달러(1억6612만 원)나 된다
What it is: To prevent data breaches—and better protect sensitive client and customer information—employers are beefing up their cyber security forces. A digital risk officer proactively assesses risks and implements security measures.
Why it’s growing: Recent hacks at Sony, Target, and Home Depot have put more companies on high alert. “Regardless of industry or size, if you have sensitive client information, you have to look carefully at what your security threats are,” says Cornell’s Thomas.
How your skills translate: Your analytical mindset, computer savvy, and problem-solving skills apply to the core responsibility of a digital risk officer: outthinking cybercriminals.
Education requirements: 2- or 4-year degree in IT and digital analytics certification. You’ll likely start as an information security analyst and need to complete a risk assessment training program as well.
Average salary: $153,602 for a chief risk officer, according to Payscale estimates.
Projected job growth: The field is so new that specific data isn’t available, but by 2017, one-third of large employers with a digital component will employ a digital risk officer, reports IT research firm Gartner.
4. If you’re a nutritionist, rehabilitation counselor, or athletic trainer, consider becoming a…
HEALTH-AND-WELLNESS EDUCATOR
보건·웰빙 교육전문가
각 기업에서 직원들의 사내 복지, 업무 환경 등 직업 만족도를 높여주는 방안을 연구하는 전문가들이다. 일부 기업은 ‘아웃소싱’ 형태로 이들 전문가로부터 조언을 구한다. 직업 만족도가 높은 직장일수록 매출과 순익이 높아진다는 점에서 기업들이 관심을 가질 수밖에 없는 직업이다.
4년제 대학에서 보건 관련 전공을 이수하고서 관련 자격증을 취득하면 이 분야에 진출할 수 있다. 미국 내 평균 연봉은 6만2280달러(6736만 원)로 2022년까지 최소 20% 이상 신장할 것으로 점쳐지고 있다
What it is: Previously outsourced, many companies are now hiring in-house specialists to offer health-and-wellness advice and services, says Brie Reynolds, director of online content at FlexJobs.com, which saw a spike in job postings for this position. The educator works with employees individually to assess personal health issues and create strategies tailored to each person’s needs.
Why it’s growing. Health improvements made by employees not only curb insurance costs but also boost job satisfaction, a key ingredient to retaining talent. Some employers are tying financial incentives to health-and-wellness achievements—discounting health insurance premiums for employees who lose weight, quit smoking, or lower blood pressure, among other behavioral changes.
How your skills translate: Pure and simple, you’re a “people person.” Your ability to connect with individuals and motivate them to make behavioral changes will come in handy when promoting healthy living strategies to workers.
Education requirements: 4-year degree and health education specialist certification. The National Commission for Health Education Credentialing has information on requirements and eligibility.
Average salary: $62,280
Projected job growth through 2022: 21%

INDUSTRIAL-ORGANIZATIONAL PSYCHOLOGIST
상담 심리치료사
직장 내에서 직원들의 겪는 고충과 애로사항을 파악해 심리·상담 치료를 해주는 사람들이다. 각 기업은 업무만족도와 효율성을 높이고자 이들 전문가를 앞다퉈 고용하는 추세다. 특히 직원들에 대한 심리·상담 치료나 조언만으로도 일할 맛나는 직장을 만들 수 있다는 장점 때문에 2022년까지 무려 53%나 성장할 분야로 꼽혔다.
미국 내 평균 연봉은 8만330달러(8688만 원)이다
What it is: Companies hire industrial-organizational psychologists to improve work performance, job satisfaction, and skills training. This person is responsible for managing and developing a range of programs, including hiring systems, performance measurement, and health-and-safety policies.
How your skills translate: Your ability to assess an organization’s structural efficiency will serve you well in your new job. Like you, an industrial-organizational psychologist must work well with corporate clients to identify areas for improvement and increased profitability.
Why it’s growing: While not new, this lesser-known job tops the BLS’s list of the fastest-growing occupations. Chalk it up to its track record of success; surveys show the position effectively boosts work performance and improves employee retention rates.
Education requirements: Master’s degree. Check out Careers in Psychology for more information.
