We have
apps for everything under the sun now. Whether you want the superstore brought at your doorstep or a free professional
accountant always in your pocket, one click on your smartphone, and you get it all!
With the
app revolution capturing various verticals of our daily life at its full strength, certain categories of jobs are at risk of becoming history. Here is a list of a few.
1. Shopkeepers- With the growing number of online grocery shopping and delivery apps like
Grofers,
Peppertap, Big Basket etc physical shops will soon become a thing of the past.
2. Accountants- Who would want to spend money on a hired accountant when there are apps like Book Keeping Accounting for the same purpose and it is efficient too.
3. Call centre employees- When there are apps like Book my Show and Zomato which gives you the details of anything and everything near your place, call centre employees will have to upgrade their skills for other jobs.
4. Real Estate agents-
MagicBricks would soon replace real estate agents in the market. Bribe and unreal broker fees have helped in the process.
5. Travel agents- While
Make my Trip,
Clear Trip do the work and that too while offering discounts, no one would go through the hassle of booking a ticket via a travel agent anymore.
