The job market is never really great, but it's certainly trickier amidst a pandemic. Financial advice site WalletHub has a history of telling early career job seekers what positions are the most promising to apply to, and this year's report has just been released.

To determine the best entry-level jobs in the nation, WalletHub identified 108 common entry-level positions and ranked them based on 12 key metrics in three major categories: immediate opportunitygrowth potential, and job hazards. In other words, the company asked questions like: Are there plenty of open roles right now? Is the starting salary adequate? How will the job growth look over the next decade? Is the position good for your body and soul?

Whether you're graduating this spring, finishing up a gap year, or realizing you need a career change, here are the best and worst entry-level jobs to consider applying to right now, according to the report.

If you compare this year's report to those of past years, you'll find a handful of similarities. Welder, boilermaker, and floor assembler, for example, are no strangers to being the worst three jobs in today's market, and engineer roles pretty consistently dominate the top jobs list.

When you break down the positions by specific criteria, you'll see a different set of jobs shine.

Based on starting salary alone, tax attorney ranks first and college teaching assistant comes in last. Based on income growth potential, employee relations specialists have the highest chance of getting a salary spike and tellers have the lowest chance of getting a raise.

In terms of current job openings, you'll find plenty of systems engineer roles and very few available programmer roles. In terms of projected job growth by 2029, certified occupational therapist assistant roles are the most promising, and aircraft painter roles are the least promising.

If safety is your top priority, consider becoming a claims processing clerk and steer clear of becoming a floor assembler.
