CNNMoney and PayScale teamed up to list the 100 best jobs in America, based on growth, pay and job satisfaction, and 15 healthcare-related jobs made the top 100 — with three even breaking into the top 10.
To compile the list, CNNMoney and experts from PayScale.com looked at job growth prospects from the Bureau of Labor Statistics, overall job satisfaction from a PayScale.com survey, median pay for experienced workers and how big the field is, among other factors.
