When you register with Trip you are asked to select your profession, the current list is shown below:

The above 9 options are simply not good enough as around a quarter of users select the ‘Other’ option (and I can’t imagine these users are made to feel particularly special!).  Also, as we want to offer increasingly personalised information, the more granular the detail we have on a person the better.  So, in our recent surveys I asked people to tell us their profession and from that I have come up with a more comprehensive list:

Academic researcher
Dentist
Dental – other
Dietician/nutritionist
Doctor/physician – other
Doctor/physician – primary care
Doctor/physician – secondary care
Educator
Librarian/Information specialist
Medical laboratory scientist
Midwife
Nurse
Nurse lecturer
Nurse practitioner
Nurse, clinical specialist
Ophthalmologist
Optometrist
Paramedic
Patient/carer
Public health professional
Pharmacist
Physical therapist/physiotherapist
Physician assistant
Retired
Speech and language
Student
Other

Expect to see the changes in early 2015
