While corporate downsizing, computerization, and changes in business practices will limit job growth in this large industry, numerous job openings are expected, enabling new workers to replace those who leave or retire.

Growing areas of the insurance industry are medical services and health insurance and the industry’s expansion into the broader financial services field.

Office and administrative occupations usually require a high school diploma, whereas employers prefer college graduates for sales, managerial, and professional jobs.
