Most Overrated Jobs of 2012

A common trait shared among the CareerCast.com most overrated jobs of 2012 is allure. None are without their appeal – they wouldn’t be deemed overrated otherwise.

They also share high levels of stress. Some face dwindling job markets among growing candidate pools, while others have been hit hard amid economic turbulence.

Advertising agency executive topped our most overrated list. A potentially lucrative job, there’s an aura of glamour to it that the popular cable TV showMad Men has helped precipitate. But being an advertising agency executive isn’t all high fashion and scotches at lunch – hardly.
