Odds of Hanging On

Career outlook is pretty good for psychology, since more and more hands are needed to stem the tide of mental illness. Health care is starting to encourage multiple points of view in medicine, and you may find yourself collaborating with a team of other specialists.

Schools will also need a steady crop of psychologists in their quest to provide kids with a safe place to learn. It's a good idea to focus on a particular area you're interested in, and pursue as much training in it as possible. The more schooling you have, the more attractive you'll be to a prospective employer.
