Any casual raid group won't give a damn about what you play. "Play what you prefer." In a serious hardcore group, they pick the best job. Let's see what we have right now.

TANKS:
Paladin
Warrior
Warrior has Storm Path and outdps Bards, it's silly to not get one. Paladin is the only job with Strength debuff. No matter how you see Dark knight with Int debuff, Monk can do it.

HEALERS:
White Mage
Astrologian
Not because Scholar is bad. White mage is really OP right now and can pull 900 dps on a dummy. They heal stronger than SCH and AST buffs are just too good.

DPS:
Monk
Dragoon/Ninja
Bard
Summoner
Monk has Int Debuff. I don't know what is stronger between Battle Litany or Trick Attack. Bard still provide superior support than Machinist. Summoner is the best choice for caster.
