Massachusetts is one of the smallest states in the United States, but it is the third most densely populated. Eleven of 2012′s Fortune 500 companies call Massachusetts home. The state’s New England location and historical significance give Massachusetts a variety of industries for job seekers to investigate.

Education is a big industry in Massachusetts, particularly higher education, with over one hundred institutions of higher learning in the state. With the historical significance of Massachusetts, tourism has become a big industry, particularly in large cities and other cities of historical note such as Boston, Cape Cod, Salem, and Plymouth.

Boston and Springfield make up the major metropolitan areas in Massachusetts. Both of these areas contain many institutions of higher learning, with the latter’s metropolitan area known as the Knowledge Corridor. Boston also has large sectors in biotechnology and insurance.
