If you’re graduating this year, there’s a good chance you’re already thinking hard about what’s next. Graduate school is one appealing option––a chance to engage in higher learning and put the job hunt off for a couple more years––but many more of 2023’s graduating class will be thinking about how to get straight into the workforce.

The good news for college students is that a recent report from the National Center for Education Statistics (NCES) found that those with a college degree have both better employment prospects and greater annual earnings than those without that diploma.

The report found that between 2010 and 2021, the percentage of people with a Bachelor’s or higher degree increased from 32% to 39%, and the percentage with a master’s or higher degree increased from 7% to 9%.

College grads earn more, too: the average earnings for those with a Bachelor’s degree is $59,600, whereas those with a Master’s degree or higher is $69,700.

To target your post-college job even more, it’s useful to know what sectors are good bets for a strong and lasting future career. While it is easy to look at last year’s tech layoffs––1,024 tech companies laid off 154,336 employees––and worry about future prospects, the reality is that there is plenty of growth and vigor in the labor market.

Here are the growth sectors to look at for 2023.

  1. Cybersecurity

Demand far outstrips supply here currently: A global shortage of 3.4 million cybersecurity workers means 43% of organizations are struggling to find and hire the right talent. The U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS) says that the number of information security analysts is projected to grow 35%, Between 2021 and 2031, making it the eighth-fastest-growing occupation in the country.

  1. AR and VR

The success of Meta’s Quest 2 VR headset shows the increasing importance and understanding of the augmented reality (AR) and virtual reality (VR) fields.

These more immersive and interactive methods of communication are on the cusp of exploding into the mainstream. There will be 1.4 billion mobile AR users worldwide by 2023, up one billion from the 44 million documented in 2019, according to Statista. GlobalData reports that the AR marketplace should hit $60 billion in 2023.

  1. Blockchain

Cryptocurrency had a volatile, and in some cases, disastrous 2022, but the blockchain technology it is built on has many other applications. As a result, blockchain is predicted to become one of the fastest growing sectors this decade.

Glassdoor says that the worldwide yearly growth in blockchain job postings was around 300% in 2021. The expected growth of Web3.0 and its reliance on blockchain technology to power its applications should spell even more employment opportunities.

  1. Cloud computing

For those interested in looking for a new role in 2023, the cloud computing space which has experienced unprecedented growth over the past three years. The BLS predicts that employment opportunities in cloud computing will grow by 15% up to 2031, which is much faster than the average for all occupations.

  1. Artificial intelligence (AI)

AI and machine learning (ML) jobs are also in demand: OpenAI’s recent launch of ChatGPT was a mainstream success, catapulting artificial intelligence into wider conversations, increasing awareness and knowledge about the technology. Thinktank Emsi Burning Glass, collected and analyzed millions of job postings from across the country, and has predicted that the number of job postings requesting A.I. skills will increase 297% over the next two years.
