List of profitable professions. The most prestigious professions. Guys should also take a closer look at the professions.

Despite the fact that the unemployment rate in Russia has slightly decreased over the past few years, large-scale optimizations in the state and industrial sectors create prerequisites for an increase in the indicator. Therefore, the question: what professions in 2018 will be most in demand now is relevant. Graduates of schools who choose their specialty study the ratings especially scrupulously.

Ministry of Labor statistics

Those for whom it is important official employment, the payment of all compensations and the provision of benefits prescribed by law, should pay attention to the statistics government centers employment. Depending on the region, the first places may change, but in general, the list of specialties with the largest number of open vacancies is rather monotonous and will not undergo significant changes in 2018.

Most of all in Russia in 2018 is lacking:

builders;
drivers;
doctors of various fields;
teachers;
engineers
qualified locksmiths and mechanics.

Most often, employers are looking for unskilled workers: security guards, lifters, cleaners, watchmen. That is, if desired, even people who do not have a specialty can earn money.

But still, the most demanded professions in 2018 require graduation from an institute, or at least a technical school. You can safely get a doctor's or teacher's diploma, since these areas will allow you to receive a stable (albeit small) income for many years.

Advice! If it is not possible to graduate from the institute, then you can get a secondary specialized education. The labor market lacks nurses and builders with a specific specialization (roofers, fitters, concrete workers).

It should be borne in mind that trends in the labor market are constantly changing. The popularity of certain specialties can suddenly increase and just as quickly, in 3-5 years, lose its relevance. Before making a decision, we advise you to analyze not only the labor market, but also the general trends in the development of the economy.

What specialists will be in demand according to the largest job aggregators?

Due to the fact that state-owned enterprises mostly do not use private sites to find employees, and private employers are less likely to post vacancies for low-skilled workers, the unofficial list of in-demand professions 2018 is slightly different.

In terms of the number of open vacancies, the following categories are in the lead:

Sales (requires sales managers, distributors and sales representatives);
IT-technologies (enterprises are especially in need of programmers);
Accounting and accounting (looking for both simple accountants and financial analysts).

Recruiters note the high demand for engineers and technologists. Moreover technical specialists are required in literally all areas: from agriculture to pharmaceuticals. The builders also got into the rating. But if through employment centers they are looking for workers for a construction site, then requests for management personnel prevail on the sites. Employers are looking for managers with a construction profession.

As for blue-collar occupations, on the sites you can find current vacancies with a level wages ten times higher than the supply of state employment centers. The fact is that employers put forward high demands on job seekers. To earn 60-70 thousand rubles (as opposed to 15-20 thousand offered state enterprises), an ordinary worker must find an approach to customers, independently communicate with suppliers and contractors, and be able to read drawings. And this is not counting the practical skills of working with specialized tools and equipment.

What professions are recognized as the highest paid in 2018?

No matter how popular the specialty of builders is, everyone knows that the biggest money can be earned in other areas. The highest paid professions are concentrated in the IT industry. Reading the list, you need to take into account that the proposed fixed salaries are indicated, otherwise sales managers would be in the lead (with a small rate, employers promise stunning percentages from each transaction).

IT specialist

Dozens of new devices developed domestically will enter the Russian market in 2018. In connection with the rejection of foreign experience, employers are already actively looking for their own, "full-time" programmers. Key skills: JavaScript, CSS, JMS, and XML, will allow you to receive 80-100 thousand rubles a month. But the ability to develop multi-threaded and highload applications, independently analyze and correct mistakes (yours and others'), coordinate a team of specialists will bring you up to 300,000 rubles a month.

Lawyer

Despite the fact that the market is already oversaturated with representatives of legal specialties, the level of the offered salary does not decrease from year to year. Jurisprudence offers hundreds of career options: from an ordinary legal adviser to a representative in international courts. The final salary level depends on the geographical location of the employer, the experience of the applicant and even the presence of connections. Chief lawyers and heads of departments dealing with legal issues... The formula is simple: the larger the corporation, the higher the salary. In Moscow, the average monthly salary of a manager top echelon can reach 300,000 rubles.

Chef

Previously, the work of a cook belonged to the category of work directions and was low paid. But along with the development of the leisure and entertainment industry, I had to admit that the chef - promising profession... In order to take the position of a chef in a prestigious restaurant and receive 200-250 thousand rubles, in addition to preparing gourmet dishes, you need to be able to:

establish and maintain normal work commands;
calculate the cost of dishes:
develop technological maps;
control the quality of dishes;
work with customer complaints.

In addition to high pay, a pleasant bonus of such a profession is the opportunity to eat right at work, as well as constantly improve their qualifications at the expense of the employer.

Aircraft commander

The demand for this profession is not too high. There are many more flight school graduates than vacancies. To become an aircraft commander and earn about 250,000 rubles, you will have to graduate from a university, spend about 10 years to fly 3000-4000 hours and get everything. required permissions, certificates and certificates. The advantage of the profession is the opportunity to see literally the whole world. And if you wish, you can try to find a job outside of Russia, with a minimum wage of 400-450 thousand rubles.

Designer

The highest paid design professionals work in the oil and gas industry... Despite the precipitous drop in oil prices, the demand for people with design skills is projected to rise in 2018. Heads of design departments earn the most (about 200,000 rubles). At the start of their careers, graduates of technical universities are offered 40-50 thousand rubles. Moreover, most orders can be fulfilled at home.

It should be remembered that highly paid professions in Russia are not always the most demanded. When entering a university, it is better to be guided by your own preferences and interests.

They began to prepare students for non-core specialties and dubious programs.

Due to the low quality of education and the excess of supply over demand, graduates had to retrain and look for another job. Some mastered working specialties, others went into the service sector.

Let's remember what was relevant in 2017

In September last year, the Ministry of Labor named engineers the most demanded specialists in the labor market. The ministry also noted the demand for doctors and nurses (despite the introduction of automation systems) and skilled workers: electricians, welders, turners. According to the information of the department, entrepreneurs, managers and document specialists more often than others remain unemployed in Russia.

The Ministry of Labor also provided a list of high-paying professions based on vacancies that appeared in the first half of the year.

But what awaited young professionals in the labor market, according to Career.ru.

Customer service operator - a leading position for young professionals for 2017

But when choosing a specialty, it is important to think ahead.

Looking into the future: what awaits us after 2020

The recruitment agency "Unity" interviewed Russian companies and compiled a list of professions that will be in demand already in 2021. The top 5 includes the following specialties:

Food production technologist.

Mobile Application Architect.

Biochemist.

Financial analyst.

Strategist in the field of search and personnel management.

Also, according to respondents, companies will continue to look for specialists in Big Data, Java and Python developers, mobile application designers.

Companies well-known in the labor market are also conducting a survey. According to the recruiting company Hays: more than half of the respondents believe that their profession will change dramatically in 10 years and will require new skills.

The Moscow School of Management Skolkovo and the Agency for Strategic Initiatives have compiled a list of “dying” professions. The list included the following specialties:

notary, librarian, copywriter;

tester, System Administrator;

bank teller, analyst;

secretary, logistician;

driver, dispatcher, journalist.

Also, the Agency for Strategic Initiatives and the Moscow School of Management Skolkovo created the Atlas of New Professions. It includes over 100 new specialties, most of which will appear only after 2020. The developers identify 5 future trends: automation, globalization, more complex control systems, increased competition and environmental requirements.

However, while universities do not teach IT geneticists, space tourism managers and medical robot operators, it is worth paying attention to the list of professions adopted by the Government of the Russian Federation.

Which profession should I choose?

Nobody will make the choice for you: you need to make an informed decision taking into account forecasts, market conditions and, of course, your abilities.

What to do:

Take a career guidance test and consult with a specialist.
Study the list of professions approved by the Government of the Russian Federation and Atlas.
Monitor vacancies: mark the demanded requirements for applicants, the level of wages.
Listen to the forecasts of experts and monitor the labor market. For example, HeadHunter periodically publishes reports for specific regions and industries. An example is on the website hh.ru.

P. S. We do not live in the USSR: it is unlikely that it will be possible to study, then get a job in one place and work the whole life. You must always keep your finger on the pulse.

1. From the very beginning, I would like to talk about IT specialists... In view of the introduction of more and more perfect and new software Most companies need trained programmers. Those who can always tell and show by example, train employees in these innovations. There are a lot of directions in the IT sphere, and even a beginner programmer can find a job here, with a certain skill and mindset. Design skills are most valued as well as web site modeling skills. With a lot of knowledge, you can get an excellent and profitable job in foreign companies such as Google or Microsoft.

2. Second on my list are engineers. This profession are chosen by those people who want to go with the progress "toe-to-toe". At the present time, there is a very rapid development of the construction industry and production automation. More and more companies are in need of qualified specialists in the field of engineering. Having a bright mind and a good education, such people easily achieve the position of leaders. Technical knowledge of English plays a significant role in this matter, because of which such specialists are "taken off with their hands" by foreign companies. This is the key to a successful life and earnings.

3. The third and one of the most important professions in our life is a doctor... Doctors are different, from venereologists to surgeons. In the XXI century, very high requirements are put forward for doctors, in order to obtain the necessary qualifications, it will take a lot of effort, patience and time. However, in most Western countries, good doctors are worth their weight in gold. They always have great wealth and demand. In our country, doctors receive a penny and work, for the most part, only for the idea. But in a number of Western countries, many medical centers want to get themselves a well-specialized doctor. Currently, the need for this profession has not decreased by a drop, but even increased, due to the appearance of various fatal and serious diseases, as well as viruses.

4. For centuries, people have always loved travel and outdoor activities.... This has not changed in the 21st century either. A person always wants to go to some warm country, especially closer to the sea. In this difficult issue, specialists in the field of tourism help us. The managers of this profession earn a lot and for the most part live in five-star hotels and always have income. Correctly adjust the course, organize comfortable accommodation and an interesting program - only professional tourism managers can do it. For this, they have such a demand in the labor market and are highly valued by various foreign companies.

5. The next specialization on my list is logistics... Difficult, laborious and nervous profession. But for people who have an economic instinct and a good knowledge of the transport infrastructure, it will not be difficult, but interesting. For this raises the question of managing various product flows and material assets... For specialists who own topographic companies in practice, they queue up one after another to get such a professional.

6. Since the 19th century, mankind has not polluted the environment and soil by whatever methods... Millions of factories, exhaust of poisonous gases, nuclear and chemical weapons - all this causes irreparable harm to our world. It is for the rights of nature that environmentalists are fighting. By their actions, they try to slow down the destruction of the world as much as possible. To save the world, many charitable foundations and companies pay huge sums of money to environmentalists, just so that they can cope with the consequences of us and our ancestors.

7. For a long time, people believed that the natural resources of the world would be enough for an unlimited time.... But each time you have to drill new wells for oil production, because any source begins to grind and ends. All the forces of science are thrown into methods of producing alternative energy, as well as on increasing energy efficiency. The specialists of power engineering and chemistry have found their place here. Creation of new solar panels, fuel, the search for a replacement for most of the resources, the supply of which is gradually dying out. All this requires implementation the latest technologies and their further development. People who have graduated in chemistry or power engineering do not have to worry about where to work. Such specialists will be 100% hired for a highly paid and prestigious position.

8. Another profession is nanotechnology... For the first time, nanotechnology was applied in space and over time began to come into use in our world. Today nanotechnology is used almost everywhere: in production, in medicine, as well as in Food Industry... And this is not the limit, the opportunities are growing every day. And along with them, the demand for these specialists is growing.

9. Every year, in the world, the demand for various goods is growing... Competitors are constantly pushing prices down to meet customer needs. It is marketers who are engaged in forecasting, analyzing and monitoring the market. Experts in this field understand what kind of product is in demand now, what price should be set and after what time the cost of the product will grow. There are few real professionals in this craft and they are highly valued not only by foreign companies, but also by ours, domestic ones.

10. And on the last issue of my list, I want to talk about such a profession as a PR specialist... Each company is interested in selling its product and selling it at a higher price. It is thanks to advertising that they have a large list of buyers and good success... In this profession, it happens that higher education is not enough, most specialists rely on their intuition and creative mindset. It is thanks to their interest in their own business that they have a lot of money, getting it, practically out of thin air, because they earn on their own and original ideas.

In this article, I tried to tell you about what kind of profession you should choose, but listen to me or not - you decide, I just give advice. I would like to say that now in our world there are very great opportunities for good earnings... Many companies now have a shortage of certain jobs. And, perhaps, it is you who will help them get rid of this problem, providing the company and yourself with good income for several years to come.

The prestige of the profession is determined not only by high income and social status, but also by such indicators as stability, prospects career growth, demand in the distant future.

Let's look into the future and find out what these professions are and what skills the representatives of each of them have.

IT specialist

The Internet is taking up more and more space in people's lives.

Doctor

The medical sector suffers from a deficit of professionals more than ever. Heavy workloads and scanty salaries forced many specialists to change their favorite profession to a more profitable one.

Now this profession is no longer prestigious, but by right it has become the most respected. Love for people, patience and good education are the main qualities of a modern doctor.

This promising and demanded profession belongs to the category of difficult ones. Not everyone will be able to succeed in this field.
