Selected

sought after

... so that it may become a profession that is sought after.
or
... so that it may become a profession people aspire to work in.

I don't think you need to translate الجميع here, it would just sound a bit odd in English.

neutral Nesrin : My only problem with that is that we have "مهنة منافسة" right before that, so it'll be "a competitive profession everyone competes for".

Everyone is dashing for.

everyone strives for

This way the sentence would be 'a competative profession everyone strives for',which will also allay Nesrin's concern.
