Stress isn't just about meeting deadlines these days, it could be about losing your job, CareerCast has decided.
The US job site's annual Job Stress report rates working as a newspaper reporter as the sixth most stressful job, with broadcasters coming in at number ten. Both jobs have negative job outlooks, minus nine per cent for broadcasters, and minus eight per cent for reporters.
You might want to consider being a firefighter or police officer, which with military personnel and airline pilots, make up the top four most stressful jobs. Or move to being a diagnostic medical sonographer, information security analyst or university professor if you want a quieter life.
CareerCast analysed 11 factors including deadlines, hazards, public scrutiny, physical demands, competition, and career growth potential. "Even though they may be stressful, these professions are crucial to America's democracy," says CareerCast's Kyle Kensing. "Newspaper reporters and broadcasters have a big impact in showing us the truth amidst the trend of 'fake news'."
