Job Search Tip: Don’t forget that when thinking about a new job, you also want to consider other aspects that can make it enjoyable – this includes reading company reviews to see what a company culture is like, reading up on the benefits offered and getting more details into compensation i.e. bonuses, equity, commission, etc.

* MethodologyGlassdoor’s 25 Best Jobs in America report identifies specific jobs with the highest overall Glassdoor Job Score. The Glassdoor Job Score is determined by weighting three factors equally: earning potential (average annual base salary), career opportunities rating, and number of job openings. Results represent job titles that rate highly among all three categories. The Glassdoor Job Score is based on a 5-point scale (5.0=best job, 1.0=bad job). For a job title to be considered, it must receive at least 75 salary reports and at least 75 career opportunities ratings shared by U.S.-based employees over the past year (1/10/14–1/9/15). The number of job openings per job title represents the total number posted on Glassdoor over the past three months (10/21/14-1/20/15). This report takes into account job title normalization that groups similar job titles.
