Introvert jobs: every occupation scored for social demands
Every list of jobs for introverts is somebody's opinion. This table is built from numbers. O*NET, the US Department of Labor's occupation database, rates 760 occupations on seven kinds of social demand. We combined those into one score from 0 to 100, then matched each job to its median pay, projected growth and typical entry education from the Bureau of Labor Statistics.
A lower score means the work asks for less contact, talking and teamwork. Search for a job, or click a column heading to sort.

How the score works
For each occupation, O*NET publishes a rating from 1 to 5 on each of these seven items. We rescaled each to 0 to 100 and took the average. Where O*NET splits an occupation into several detailed versions, we averaged those.
| O*NET item | What it measures |
|---|---|
| Contact With Others | How much the job requires being in contact with others by any means. |
| Face-to-Face Discussions | How often the job involves face-to-face discussions with individuals and teams. |
| Telephone Conversations | How often the job involves talking on the telephone. |
| Public Speaking | How often the job involves speaking to groups. |
| Deal With External Customers or the Public | How much the job involves serving customers or the general public. |
| Work With or Contribute to a Work Group or Team | How important teamwork is to the job. |
| Conflict Situations | How often the job involves dealing with conflict. |
What this can't tell you
- The scores describe what a job asks of workers. They do not measure personality, and they are not medical or psychological advice.
- O*NET does not measure remote work, so the table can't show which jobs can be done from home.
- Pay, growth and openings are national figures. Local pay varies a lot.
- We left out 5 occupations that O*NET flags as unreliable, and 4 with no published annual median wage. 13 occupations in all are not ranked.
- Social scores are one input. A quiet job can still be a poor fit for other reasons, such as hours, location or stress.
