30-Dec-16 13:30

2016 was a fleeting year of highs and lows. This year, we covered the many facets of jobs unseen and unknown to the masses; from a Hot Air Balloonist, Flirtologist, Swordsmith and Soundscape Ecologist, all the way up to an Embalmer, Cockroach Scientist and even SIRI herself. In today’s Careers Unusual Flashback Friday, we conclude the year by presenting the very best of careers in 2016.
