A new survey has revealed the dream jobs of Americans, ranging from children's book illustrator to stay-at-home dad. Conducted by Talker Research between October 21 and 24,, the survey asked 1,000 Americans about their dream jobs. Results found that 43 percent of Americans have a "dream job" in mind, while 46 percent said they do not, while 12 percent were unsure.
Almost 400 respondents took the time to write out specific job titles, roles, or fields they longed for, offering insights into the varied and often personal career dreams of Americans today. The responses revealed a mix of traditional and modern roles, flexible work ideals and a particular interest in owning your own business. What Are American's Dream Jobs? Self-Employment and Entrepreneurship : Many dream of autonomy, hoping to run their own businesses or be their own boss.
From running a jewelry store to launching a cleaning business or small restaurant. "Owning my own business with several cash-flowing assets so that I can be financially free" was one respondent's dream. Creative Arts and Media : Others said they envision a life in the arts, such as working as a music producer, YouTuber, fashion designer, or novelist.
One respondent hopes to "collaborate on innovative projects that make a positive impact." Helping Professions : For many respondents, dreams aren't just about them, with responses from people who said their dream job was to help others by becoming a nurse, teacher, social worker, or veterinarian. .
