The once prestigious professions of lawyer, manager and accountant are now listed in the list of the least sought after. There were too many representatives of these specialties on the market, and their experience and qualifications often left much to be desired.
Modern applicants should choose for themselves more popular specialties among employers. The current ten are represented the most scarce professions in Russia according to leading headhunters.
10. Electronics Specialists
A long lack of interest in technical specialties has led to the fact that when purchasing high-tech equipment, for example, a production line, Russian companies cannot find a specialist in setting it up. Machine-building enterprises also experience a similar deficit, where production is increasingly associated with complex electronics.
9. IR manager
Investor Relations Specialists are highly regarded in large companies. Only a truly highly qualified specialist can present the project correctly and receive financing.
8. Marketers
The shortage of demand forecasting specialists is noted by all recruitment agencies without exception. IT marketers are especially valued.
7. Derivative Lawyers
There are practically no specialists in derivative financial instruments on the market. Those who can accompany transactions on the international market are especially appreciated.
6. Top managers
Professional managers are most in demand in IT projects, property management, in large trading companies, design and research institutes and centers.
5. Medical managers
Private clinics have recently begun to appear in Russia, where medicine has always been considered the public sector. And today, these institutions experience an acute shortage of professional managers who know the medical specifics.
4. Engineers
According to headhunters, no more than 1.5 resumes are received per engineer vacancy, and far from all applicants meet the qualification requirements. In the 1990s, a strong cohort of engineering specialists left the plants in favor of commerce and entrepreneurship, and replaced by specialists without the proper experience.
3. Aircraft
Most of the fleet of domestic airlines undergoes maintenance abroad. In our country, aviation technicians and engineers are in great demand. Almost all graduates of the only specialized MAI faculty in Russia are provided with 200% work.
2. Skilled workers
The vocational education system in Russia has been practically eliminated. And many companies are faced with the problem of finding qualified workers. Most professionals have almost reached retirement age, and there is practically no one to transfer experience. Naturally, this situation negatively affects the state of domestic industry.
1. IT specialists
Demand for programmers and software administrators is growing steadily. The market offers many vacancies for banking IT specialists, IT project managers, specialists in setting up sophisticated electronic equipment, etc. A lot of work for a good IT-employee and on the Internet.
