Sources and how we did this

For each role we read the newest research we could find and checked every number on its source page in October 2026. Most growth figures are US projections from the Bureau of Labor Statistics for 2025 to 2035. Where a role has no figure of its own, we used the closest occupation and say so. Each role's sources are linked on its card.
