You may not have dreamed of being a logistics manager when you were a kid, but we've been having a look through all of the data collected in our anonymous employee reviews and it turns out that employees in Transport, Logistics & Distribution gave their roles the highest ratings for job enjoyment out of every career on the site!
We talk a lot about which are the Top Companies To Work For, so we thought that it was high time that we trawled through all of our data to find out which were the best careers to work in as well, so that we could share the info with you – and hopefully help you to find the perfect job to apply for. We're kicking things off by looking at the answers to the question: "How Much Do You Enjoy What You Do?" – which we ask every employee who adds an anonymous review to the site, and we think that the result may come as quite a surprise as it probably isn't the first career that comes to mind when you think of dream jobs. But when you read the individual job reviews on TheJobCrowd for roles such as Cabin Crew at British Airways, who describe their job as "travelling the world and staying in some amazing hotels and locations" or even employees of Network Rail, the train operator, who say things like "I have only been working for Network Rail for two months but I have fallen in love with trains", it's less hard to see why they give their jobs such high enjoyment scores!
You will probably be less surprised to hear that Actors and Musicians also hugely enjoy their jobs, meaning that Performing Arts & Music comes in 2nd place, closely followed by Construction & Property.
