💼 20 Jobs That Will Be in Demand in 2026 and Beyond (AARP Article)

Seasonal opportunities expected to spike with the World Cup and a milestone July 4th looming.

By Kenneth Terrell, AARP. Published December 23, 2025.

In November, the nation’s unemployment rate rose slightly to 4.6 percent, and 25.1 percent of job seekers 55 and older were long-term unemployed, meaning they have been looking for work for more than six months. Economic uncertainty over the Trump administration tariffs, generative AI and other factors has made employers hesitant to hire.
