Jobs

1)Marketing Managers
While most manufacturing jobs will keep moving to the country with the lowest labor cost, the marketing of products and services usually has to be done locally. For this reason I think that there will always be a good demand for sharp marketing managers. Often the best marketing jobs are for those people who have worked in the technical end of the business and who know the products and the customers well. Thus the best marketing managers for software products probably worked as a software engineer creating those products. The best marketing managers for the latest cell phone or book reader probably worked on creating those products. So I would get a technical background rather than a business background if you want to be a marketing manager.
