10 Jobs Where Women Are Taking Over

Forbes recently published their list of 20 Surprising Jobs Women Are Taking Over.

These positions usually require at least a college degree, and as women in the United States continue to make greater educational strides, the gender-pay gap continues to shrink. In fact, according to the U.S. Department of Education, women are currently outpacing men when it comes to earning bachelor's degrees at a rate of 3 to 2.
