Summary of high paying careers in each state of the United States

　Many students studying in the U.S. choose finance and STEM majors, but when it comes to graduation, those who want to stay in the U.S. to find a job will mostly feel the pressure. International students are concentrated in a few specialties, and before competing with the locals, they have to compete with their own people, and this situation is really a bit depressing. In fact, the line of work, and according to the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics released a hundreds of categories of jobs throughout the United States income survey shows that the original states have a number of occupations to be much higher than the national average annual salary level of this occupation. For example, in mineral-rich Texas, mining and geological engineers and mine safety engineers earn a national average of $100,970/year, which can be as high as $143,370/year in Texas, a full 42% higher.

The fact that these jobs are so much higher than the national average shows that they are in short supply in every state. So before choosing a major, international students may want to look at the data to see what kind of talent is in demand where they want to go.
