The following industries usually hire the most project managers.
1. Engineering and Construction
2. Healthcare
3. Financial Services
4. Energy
5. Technology
I am assuming there is a good chance of exposure to project management when you get to work in these industries. There are no easy/quick ways though. if you want to acquire PM skills and want to become a project manager in the future, get involved now and seek project management opportunities in your current company.

IT has been good for me over the years to get experience. I found that it has a lot of parallels to other industries. But as the point was made earlier, a PM should be able to lead a project no matter what the industry is.
