Do Americans Think Your Job is Prestigious?

Let’s admit it: We all need to feel special sometimes. Well, if you’re a firefighter, scientist or teacher, you should. After all, a new Harris poll indicates that plenty of Americans already think you are.

U.S. adults, according to a recent survey by Harris Interactive, see firefighters, scientists and teachers as the most prestigious occupations while bankers, actors and real estate agents are the least prestigious occupations. The 2007 “Most Prestigious Occupations” poll measured the public perceptions of 23 professions.

Among the least prestigious occupations are real estate brokers, actors and bankers.
