　　The world is going digital, and Software Engineers who can help with that transformation are reaping the benefits. Their pay is great, hiring demand for their skills is through the roof, and working conditions have never been better. And that’s why the job of Software Engineer ranks tops in our annual Jobs Rated report on the nation’s best and worst jobs for 2012.

　　世界正在进行数字化的变革，推动此变革的软件工程师正从中获益。他们的薪水丰厚，所在行业的就业需求也在飞速增长，工作条件也是好的没话说。这就是为什么在我们的年度职业评估报告上，软件工程师会登顶2012年的最佳工作。

　　Of course, any job may seem like the best job if you’re unemployed and the improving economy hasn’t ushered you back into the workforce. But there are qualities that make some professions more desirable than the rest of the pack. Again this year our researchers looked high and low to find those occupations that ranked the best in five key areas: Work Environment, Physical Demands, Job Outlook, Income Levels and Stress. And it should be no surprise that Software Engineer ranks No. 1, followed by Actuary, Human Resources Manager, Dental Hygienist and Financial Planner。

　　当然如果你失业了，而正在好转的经济形势也没能让你重新找到工作，那任何职业对你来说都是最佳职业。但是有一些特征使得其中的一些职业更吸引人。今年我们的研究人员再次四处调研，根据工作环境、体能要求、工作前景、收入层次和压力这五个关键标准对职业进行排名。不出所料排名第一的是软件工程师。接下来的排名依次是：精算师、人力资源经理、洁牙师和理财规划师。

　　This year, there are several professions that are making their inaugural appearance on our Jobs Rated Top 10 Best Jobs list. Human Resources Manager , Financial Planner , Occupational Therapist and Online Advertising Manager are all rated as a Top 10 Best Job for the first time due to a combination of high incomes, great environments, good job growth and relatively low unemployment rates。

　　今年，有几个职业是初次在我们的十佳职业清单上露面。人力资源经理、理财规划师、职业理疗师、互联网广告销售经理，这些职业由于收入高、工作环境好、有良好的发展前景和失业率相对较低，第一次出现在了榜单上。

　　With the increase in digital computing demands and healthcare needs, it makes sense that most of the professions on our Best Jobs list this year are related to the fields of math, science and healthcare。

　　计算机相关需求和健康护理需求正日益增长，在我们今年的最佳职业排行榜上，大部分职业都是与数学、科学、和健康护理这些领域相关，这也是合情合理的。
