that
are glamorized
on television
and books.But
there are far
more jobs than
those that make
good reading
and television.
Some of the
most interesting
and unusual
jobs are those
that most third
graders have
never heard
of - unless,
of course, a
relative happens
to be a flavorist
or a research
chef.A flavorist
will go through
five years of
intensive post-
degree training,
take a certification
test and spend
two more years
as a junior
flavorist before
having a chance
at,
one of the lucrative
jobs as a full-fledged
flavorist for
a major flavor
house. What's
a flavor house,
you're wondering?It's
a research lab
that develops
flavors that
are then purchased
by soft drink
manufacturers,
baking companies,
cereal companies
and many other
food manufacturers.
Earnings prospects?
In the neighborhood
of $50,000 to
$80,000 annually
at entry level.Perfusionist
Since I brought
it up - a perfusionist
is a specialist
in keeping the
heart functioning
with,
heart/lung devices
during, before
and after heart
surgery, as
well as in some
circumstances
when the heart
is failing.
It's one of
those jobs that
offer many exciting
moments - the
perfusionist
interviewed
may work in
the back of
an ambulance,
in an operating
theater or even
in a foreign
country. There
are only 21
schools in the
country that
offer the specialized
training needed
to complete
program requirements
for a perfusionist,
and altogether
they graduate
less than 150
students a year.
An entry level
perfusionist
can expect to
earn $58,000
to $61,000 a
year, and one
with ten years
experience can
earn $85,000
to $100,000
a year.Click

rest.
