Who is in demand in the labor market. "Centaurs" will come to the digital school. How was progress

Highly paid professions are an interesting topic for any graduate, applicant or even a student who decides to assess whether his direction is promising. Due to technological progress, some professions are becoming less in demand, while others are gaining popularity. Consider which professions are the highest paid and most promising in 2019.

The list of the most popular and highly paid professions in Russia is diverse, which makes it possible for people with any mindset to prove themselves. For convenience, consider topical directions in several categories:

  • technical;
  • social;
  • "business";
  • working professions.

Technical professions

What is the most popular and highly paid profession? Many will say with confidence that these are professions related to programming. People with a technical profession create, improve and monitor normal work certain technologies, systems, devices, etc. Since more and more of the work once performed by a person is automated, such areas are the most promising and highly paid. The income of people with a technical profession will not be low either in 2019, or in 20 or even 50 years.

The top ten highest paid technical jobs in Russia in 2019 include:

  • programmers;
  • robotics - specialists in the creation, programming and maintenance of robots, must be engineers and programmers at the same time;
  • nanotechnologists - specialists who study negligible small units (atoms and molecules) and create new structures from them;
  • designers - engineers developing projects of buildings and engineering communications;
  • architects,
  • web designers.

Despite the demand for the listed jobs in the labor market, there are not enough specialists in some of them. Design engineers or robotics are rare. This is due to the fact that technical professions require a long and in-depth study and only people with a certain mentality master them at the level. But if you've always been interested in technology and decided to put in the effort to learn, it will definitely pay off.

Social professions

In connection with technological progress, the standard of living of the population is also improving. Improving the quality of life leads to a desire to take better care of health and get a better education, therefore, representatives of social professions are guaranteed to be provided with work in the near future. The most demanded and highest paid ones in 2019:

  • psychologists;
  • psychotherapists;
  • dentists;
  • pharmacists;
  • coaches;
  • lawyers.

An increasing number of people in Russian society are willing to pay for psychological and psychotherapeutic support in connection with the increased awareness of the benefits of such assistance. In these matters, people who are not inclined to an interest in technology find themselves. The work of a coach is also gaining popularity - a person who studies any issue at an expert level and transfers his knowledge to people. Such services, like the services of a lawyer, are in demand both among individuals and among large enterprises, so a specialist will definitely not be left without work.

Specialized doctors, in particular dentists, dermatologists, cosmetologists, etc., will also receive decent wages. It is not easy to get such an education, but with a certain qualification it will be very easy for a physician to find a job.

"Business" profession

Many professions in demand in 2019 remain associated with business support, despite the fact that some of these jobs will disappear in the future. Thus, a risk manager (evaluating the feasibility of the entrepreneurial risk that an organization takes and looking for measures to minimize such risk) is among the top most highly paid professions in the Russian Federation. Also, the specialties in demand are:

  • analysts analyzing the work of a business to make proposals for its improvement;

  • financiers;
  • business trainers;
  • lawyers.

Business professions have a wide profile. They can only go deeper into analysis. financial side business, or only manage personnel or work with customers and partners, or make proposals to improve the quality of products. But the most appreciated are multidisciplinary specialists who know the basics of IT, economics, and are able to manage personnel. Their salary depends on the amount of profit they bring to the organization.

Working professions

There is a very popular opinion that a profitable business now is only an activity related to IT. However, people involved in " manual labor»Are also very highly valued by employers if they have the proper qualifications and experience. Apply for a high level of earnings:

  • electricians;
  • locksmiths;
  • welders.

This sample was made taking into account the vacancies offered by employers, but in the field of private business, any “working” specialist with the appropriate qualifications has a good profit.

Secondary education

Even without getting a higher education, you can provide yourself with a decent standard of living if you choose the right profession. Consider the top 5 highly paid professions after grade 9, when a graduate prefers to get a secondary specialized education:

  1. Electrician - with work experience and qualifications, he receives a salary of up to 100 thousand rubles.
  2. Plumber - a salary of about 70 thousand per month.
  3. Professional crane operator has an income above the regional average.

  5. Cook - average salary chefs - from 70 thousand.

You can also complete short courses of programmers, designers, massage therapists, etc. and try to find a job.

Skilled labor in 2019 will be very valuable due to the development of production in the country. But among the lucrative jobs there are not only "male" jobs associated with work with technology. So, almost any girl can become a cook, make-up artist, designer, beautician. But the main thing when choosing a profession after grade 9 is to be guided by the tastes of a student, since in order to achieve success in work, you must at least show interest in your occupation and strive to develop in it. And labor good specialists in any business it pays well.

What professions will be in demand in 5 years

Already in 5 years, many new professions will appear that do not exist today, and the demand for types of work that are quite rare today will significantly increase. Consider the top professions needed in 2020, which in 5 years will be more in demand than they are now:

  1. IT specialist. Despite the fact that this work is in demand today, it has not yet reached its peak of popularity, and over time, more and more people will be needed.
  2. Robotics. Production is becoming more and more automated and the number of specialists able to control the operation of new mechanisms, create and improve them should also increase.
  3. Medics of a narrow profile. In 5 years, the services of doctors, who are rarely consulted now, will become more in demand. For example, on good income are calculated by psychiatrists or gerontologists (studying the issues of slowing aging).
  4. Marketer. The variety of companies offering almost identical goods and services on the market is already large, but in the coming years competition will only increase, so the demand for people who can distinguish an organization from among competitors will increase.
  5. Risk managers. There are few specialists of this kind today, and in the future the demand for them will only increase.

In addition, the work of an architect, designer, PR specialist, dentist analyst and other previously described works will definitely not lose their relevance.

Professions in demand at all times

In the early 20th century, telephones were provided by trained telephone operators, connecting wires, and dentures were made by dental technicians. These types of work were very skilled and widespread, so the people of that time did not imagine that soon such professionals would no longer be needed. However, technological advances have rendered the skills of such specialists useless. No one would like this situation to happen again with him, so many people choose a profession with an eye to how relevant it will be in the future.

The work related to meeting the basic needs of people and working with them will never lose their relevance. So, at all times people wanted to be healthy and beautiful, well-fed and cheerful. The professions associated with meeting these needs have existed since ancient times, but not all of them are highly paid. Consider high-paying professions that presumably will not lose their relevance in the near future:

  1. Doctors. Due to the nature of the human body, the need for treatment is unlikely to ever disappear. It will not be possible to completely replace human diagnostics and treatment with technical methods, so the doctor will never be left without work. Today the doctor's work is not paid very high, but there are already quite good vacancies and in the near future the situation is expected to improve.
  2. Teachers. Not only children, but also adults have a need to learn and receive information about the world around them. It is the people who can teach adults a highly specialized income-generating skill that claim the highest pay.
  3. Stylists, makeup artists and beauticians. Every person has the desire to look beautiful, but it is most acutely expressed in people with high level income, so it is easy for famous professionals in the beauty industry to find clients willing to pay money for their services.

Actors, cooks, engineers, psychologists, architects are also in demand at all times. But remember, it's not just stats that matter. future profession but also your ability and interest in the industry. Only your favorite work brings success to a person.


While we are mastering the professions of lawyers, economists, locksmiths and chefs Elon Musk dreams of flying to Mars, 3D printers begin to print human organs, and the UK is investing millions of pounds sterling to train assistants and assistants for robots. Be prepared for the fact that in the near future, cars will take up to 75% of jobs. Perhaps the boom in robotics in Russia will happen a little later, but it will definitely happen. Let's talk about the professions of the future - new and promising ones. Because it is worth thinking about them now.

In what areas robots will not replace humans

Robotics is advancing faster than experts thought. In Japan, machines no longer only perform ordinary operations in factories, cook and do house cleaning - they dance well, play chess, and most importantly learn. It is the trained artificial intelligence that becomes the main human competitor in the struggle for workplace... Why would an employer hire a CNC operator if the machine does not need to pay a salary and there is no need to control it - robots will hardly try to steal something, they will hardly be negligent.

As part of a lecture on human capital after the 4th industrial revolution, Christopher Pissarides (laureate Nobel Prize in economics) identified only 6 industries in which robots cannot completely replace humans. At least for the next 20-30 years. It:

  1. Medicine.
  2. Education.
  3. Real estate.
  4. The household.
  5. Hospitality.
  6. Personalized services.

With medicine, education and real estate, everything is clear. Household means not only household chores, but also family budget planning, decision-making when creating the comfort of an apartment or house, choosing an optimal place of residence, and so on. Hospitality is understood as the hotel, restaurant and tourism management, as well as the entertainment industry.

Personal services include, for example, the services of a psychologist, nanny, nurse, and other professionals that robots cannot replace for practical and ethical reasons. This also includes several areas, which are also partly professions. A striking example is the clergy. It is difficult to imagine a robot in the person of a church minister, unless it will be a separate new cult, a new religion.

It is also a field of art - presumably the value of human labor will not disappear here and, on the contrary, will continue to grow.

Professions of the future: TOP-20 specialties

Among the assumptions of the futurists, there are many specialties that may seem utopian or outright nonsense. When forecasting, it is especially important to rely on trends in science. If we know that robotics and the IT sphere are developing rapidly, then the position of a lawyer in robotethics no longer looks so unrealistic. Let us draw your attention to the list of professions published by American, European and Russian researchers.

The choice of a profession that will be in demand throughout a person's life is one of the most pressing issues facing those who graduate from school and their parents. Naturally, few of yesterday's schoolchildren can conduct a deep analysis of the labor market - and get promising profession, which will be in demand for many years to come and bring a stable high income, everyone wants.

Professions of the future: forecasts, hopes, fears

The labor market is a very dynamic and rapidly changing system. Today hardly anyone can talk with absolute certainty about all the changes over the next 10 years, not to mention more distant periods.

Watch a video about the future of popular professions and prospects in the labor market.

The emergence of new technologies and other processes can both raise the professions that are not very popular today, and, conversely, reduce the popularity of the currently demanded areas to zero. Nevertheless, the general trends in the development of the market are such that some conclusions can be drawn.

Decrease in the number of jobs is expected

The reasons for this forecast lie in the rate of demographic growth of the population, which already today is much higher than the rate of economic growth. Also, scientific and technological progress plays an important role in this process.

Automation of various spheres of activity, previously traditionally considered the prerogative of a person, leads to job cuts. Popularity trading platforms located on the Internet allow business owners to abandon the ownership or lease of commercial premises for shops, warehouses and hiring service personnel.

IT-sphere is becoming more and more in demand

Taking into account the increasing introduction of Internet technologies into the daily life of a modern person, it can be confidently asserted that professions, one way or another related to, will be more and more in demand over time.

On the contrary, the share of professions with a humanitarian orientation will decline. Many humanitarians no longer work in their specialty.

Is the qualification of the employee so important?

Paradoxically, in the near future, low-skilled occupations, which are traditionally the worst paid, will not go anywhere. At the same time, the gap in wages for unskilled labor and highly qualified specialists will grow. As a result, there may be fewer average employees. It makes sense to improve your qualifications and move to “ major league" in the labor market.

Where to go to study after school and how not to be left on the sidelines of life? About this we now let's talk.

How to become a sought-after specialist

Fully agreeing with the saying: "It is better to be rich and healthy than poor and sick", let us try to draw up a plan of action, which with a high degree of probability will allow not to turn out to be useless "penguin flipper" in a few years.
You should always try to improve your skills and qualifications. It is necessary to look for any opportunities to become a real professional in the chosen field of activity, because the incomes of a professional and an ordinary employee differ at times, and sometimes dozens of times.
For example, take the situation with lawyers. Today supply in the sector professional services several times exceeds the demand for them. For any vacancy, many applicants are responding who agree to receive minimum payment, if only to work by profession.

However, do not forget that there is another type of lawyer. They make exorbitant sums, deal with large multinationals and manufacturing giants, and know their worth.

So what makes some lawyers different from others? Someone might say - luck, but the lion's share of success still depends on the professionalism of the lawyer himself. Therefore, not knowing in advance when fate will present you with this or that opportunity, you should be ready to use the chance at any moment. And this means that you need to continuously improve, push the boundaries of your knowledge and skills, gaining a competitive advantage over representatives of a similar profession.

You need to be able to analyze the market, study the prospects of certain areas and try to act in their field. For example, now one of the most promising areas of the market can be called cryptocurrencies, blockchain, various digital technologies which show a steady upward trend in demand.


We live in a dynamic, rapidly changing world. What is considered new advanced technology today becomes hopelessly obsolete in a year. To remain in demand as a specialist, you must not only be able to change and acquire new skills in accordance with changes in realities, but also try to anticipate these very changes and always be one step ahead.

Let's try to move from general concepts to more specific ones and already talk in detail about the possibilities of the emergence of new professions and specialties in the foreseeable future.

Forward to the future: the most in-demand professions of 2025

Today's analysis Russian market labor shows its oversaturation with young specialists in the field of jurisprudence, design and psychology and, at the same time, reveals a lack of doctors of various profiles, engineers and representatives of agricultural professions.

There are several areas human activity, in which, according to experts, artificial intelligence and robotization will not soon supplant humans. These include, first of all, educational professions, housekeeping, different areas health care.

In addition, some of the professions that exist today only in science fiction novels may become really in demand in the near future. Full list there are 136 such professions, compiled by analysts.

Here are just a few of the possible directions that will be in demand in the foreseeable future:

  • airship design;
  • bioethics;
  • engineering of robotic systems;
  • IT medicine;
  • architecture of energy-zero highways;
  • cosmogeology.

Today these names sound more than exotic, however, if you look at the pace at which our world has developed in the last 30 years and how many new revolutionary technologies that have never even dreamed of science fictions of the past have become commonplace for us, the imminent appearance of cosmogeologists does not seem so unrealistic.


But there is no need to rush to design airships, especially since it is difficult to get the corresponding profession so far. It is better to think in detail about what to do now and where to go to study after school (or even after college, if you decide to get a new specialty). To do this, it is necessary to rely on two main factors. The first and by far the most important is personal preferences... If you hate biology, then it is unlikely that you will be able to become an outstanding biologist, or at least a sought-after specialist in this field.

At the same time, one should not ignore the forecasts of futurologists and, if possible, choose promising areas, so that, firstly, if necessary, you can quickly get additional knowledge, and secondly, they mastered the necessary skills for the fastest possible adaptation to the requirements of the labor market in the future.

What professions will die out

In fact, the extinction of any profession is a rather arbitrary concept. For a long time a similar fate has been predicted, for example, for librarians, however, nevertheless, they still have a job. True, every year there are indeed fewer librarians.

Scientists predict a drop in demand for representatives of the following professions:

Sellers

In view of the increasing transfer of the selling business to Internet sites, the services of sellers will be less and less in demand from year to year.

Service staff

Soon, such irrelevant professions as watchmen, lifters and even postmen should disappear.

Media professionals

The threat of lack of demand in the foreseeable future will affect such ancient professions as reporters and journalists, proofreaders and editors, and even very popular now copywriting profession... The functions of the media are increasingly taking over social networks, and the functions of writers of all stripes are automatic systems overgrowing with intelligence.


Traumatic professions

The demand for such traumatic professions as stuntmen and stunt doubles will also decrease, due to the rapid development computer technology and web design.

Office plankton

In the longer term, entire branches of professions related to accounting and clerical work, jurisprudence and management may come under attack.

For example, Sberbank of Russia announced a plan according to which it is planned to replace about three thousand units of the current staff with robots.

Who to go to study after graduation

So, which professions, according to experts, will remain relevant in the near future?

  • engineers of various specialties;
  • technical specialists;
  • biologists, chemists and related disciplines;
  • programmers;
  • web designers;
  • ecologists;
  • specialists in the field of nanotechnology.
