11. Architectural Drafter and Architect
Mentions – 2
Rank – 74
Salary – $52,245
As a straight out architect, you’d earn more, as CareerCast puts the income at over $75,000, but the overall score of this type of job puts it at nearly double the rank than you’d get as an architectural drafter. To make it simpler – the architect plans and designs structures, such as home, office buildings and so on, while the architectural drafter uses software to turn those designs into technical drawings. This means such a job would be better suited for those who also have a talent for such drawings since you’d be doing that quite a lot. The work environment is also qualified as better, and the stress levels are lower, too.
