3. Firefighter
Percentage of prestige: 80%
The third place on our list of most respected jobs in America in 2017 goes to firefighters that are loved all over the country; a child’s dream to meet one, a woman’s dream to date one, a man’s dream to become one. That is not to say that women cannot be firefighters but the unfortunate truth is that merely 7% of firefighters in the country are female.
