If you are a cautious person and like to play it safe, then any of the below jobs will suit you very well. These jobs are always in demand regardless of the economic situation. Even though they are easy to find and always needed even in recession periods, the competition is relatively high, so nothing is perfect.

Food
As if you didn't figure it out by now, people always need to eat. In difficult times and recessions, people tend to spend less on everything including food but they never stop eating. So jobs like chefs, butchers, bakers, waiters, waitresses, and restaurant supervisors are here to stay.

Maintenance
Because these jobs are considered crafts and rarely require a degree, there is a huge shortage of them. Also, these jobs revolve around the most critical things in our lives that we can't afford to live without. These include but are not limited to plumbers, electricians, gas technicians, mechanics, painters, carpenters, welders, and power line technicians.

Law Enforcement
We will always need people to enforce the laws we make. As long as people will try to work around them, these jobs will remain: security officers, police officers, firefighters, and CCTV surveillance officers.
