Along with Guyana’s economic boom is the surge in employment opportunities. For jobseekers, it is important to be well-equipped in terms of competencies and skills to land their dream jobs. However, according to experts, career pathing is also knowing the top industries with the best career opportunities. In Guyana, here are the top choices.
Agriculture and manufacturing
Guyana’s recent breakthroughs in trade have seen a rise in the exportation of local produce. Also, as more international investors establish their operations in the country, Guyana is also seeing an increase in its population. With these developments, both the agriculture and manufacturing sectors will have to beef up their workforce to keep up with this demand. This will open long-term opportunities for farmers, food scientists and technologists, agronomists, and specialists in agriculture, fisheries, livestock, aquaculture, canning, drying, preserving, and the like.

These alone will keep the construction and engineering sector busy. Possible employment opportunities include those for architects, drafters, engineers, and surveyors as well as skilled workers for mason, welding, carpentry, and fabrication works.
