This is a fairly straight forward request. I need a link to a current
list of the 100 most popular jobs/careers in the U.S. NOTE -- I'm not
looking for a list of the top companies to work for, but the job
titles themselves. I'd like the source to be a recognizable one (i.e.
Forbes, Time Magazine, etc.)

If you need any clarification, ask away.

Thanks!

Hello bernhime-ga,

I don't know what criteria one might use to figure out the most
popular jobs in the US. I  was able to find a list of the top 500 most
popular job searches for the past week. Will this meet your needs?
Thanks.

Rainbow,

You found what I need -- the question is yours. 

Do whatever you need to do on your end to collect your $$$$ (I have no
idea what the process is as I'm not a researcher on Google Questions)

Thanks!

Most popular could mean the job titles which receive the most
applications. Assistant manager, laborer and salesman likely are high
on the list as they cover a broad range of different jobs. Reasonably
you want to be more specific, but just how specific? Most ads have a
rather long list of qualifications which rarely repeat in an other ad.
Even in rather well defined careers several job titles over lap, such
as teacher and instructor, both of which likely make the top 500 list.
