Parents always want their children to be employed in the future, and therefore, when a child graduates from school, a caring father and mother want him to enter an educational institution that will provide a prestigious, in-demand and highly paid profession. Consequently, many closely monitor the relevance of a particular profession in the labor market, because the situation in this market changes quite often, and if a few years ago employers were literally hunting for employees of certain specialties, now the attention of business owners, companies and headhunters completely different specialists.

Older people probably remember how prestigious it was during the Soviet Union to work at one enterprise for a long time - 20 or, for example, 30 years. Such specialists were set as an example to everyone, they were awarded diplomas and various kinds of valuable gifts. Today, times are different - the USSR is long gone, and the planned Soviet economy has been replaced by a market economy, which requires universalism and flexibility from workers.

The situation in the national economy, trying to get out of the crisis, is constantly changing, and following it, changes occur in the labor market. Accordingly, the professions for which there is an increased demand from employers are also changing. Therefore, it is quite difficult to give an exact answer to the question of which professions will be most in demand in 2020, since various studies conducted, including by sociologists, show different results. Moreover, even considering a specific period, for example, 2018, one can see a change in the preferences of employers - this is evidenced by detailed research. Therefore, it is not difficult to guess that it is now unlikely that anyone can predict with 100 percent accuracy which professions will be most in demand in 2020. However, certain trends can still be traced here.

State order is being revived in the Russian Federation

Today in the Russian Federation, such a slightly forgotten concept as state order is being revived, when professions for which a certain number of specialists should be trained are compiled at the government level, and then this list is “released” to the country’s educational institutions. The logic of the country’s leadership in this case is quite clear - private universities make their own decisions about what professions they will train, while a number of specialties simply cannot attract applicants otherwise due to the deplorable state of the industries in which they will work after receiving the appropriate education .

Taking into account the state order and data from a number of studies, it is possible, for example, to compile a list of the most relevant professions for women in the Russian Federation, starting from 2018 and currently:

• psychologists, including family psychologists;
• ecologists;
• service workers;
• marketers;
• experts in the field of nanotechnology;
• IT specialists;
• doctors;
• engineers;
• teachers (schools and secondary educational institutions).

One point should be particularly emphasized here - engineers and teachers today are among the most in-demand professions in the country, however, the level of payment for specialists here is quite low. At the same time, top managers and workers in the oil and gas industry receive fairly high salaries, but the demand for them is not very high. The exception is top managers of the highest level - headhunters are constantly hunting for such specialists, trying to lure them away with more favorable conditions or broader prospects. Taking this circumstance into account, we can conclude: in today’s Russia it is too early to equate the most in-demand and highest-paid professions.

The most in-demand professions in 2020 – forecast

As mentioned above, it is quite difficult to give a clear forecast as to which professions will be most in demand on the Russian labor market in 2020, for a number of reasons. However, based, for example, on data for 2018, and after carefully studying the trends observed both in the labor market and in the national economy, it is still possible to make an approximate forecast.

Here it is worth considering that the modern Russian labor market is quite flexible and dynamic, and the demand for labor depends on the direction in which technology is developing and on the macroeconomic situation. But here one should also take into account such an important point as the duration of the reorganization of professional training areas by educational institutions - this takes a lot of time.

Taking into account all the above circumstances, 4 professions will be in high demand in the Russian Federation in 2020:

• builders;
• specialists in the field of PR and advertising;
• service workers;
• engineers.

Builders will be the most in demand in 2020, as the demographic situation in the country is gradually improving. Yes, the pace of this process is slow, but there are still changes for the better. Naturally, with the improvement of the demographic situation, the need for new housing will increase, and accordingly, builders will be in increased demand in the labor market. High demand for builders will also contribute to the development of business, which will need new production facilities, retail space, warehouse space, and so on.

However, the most in-demand professions in Russia in 2020 will still be related to intellectual work. There is nothing surprising here, since the country is gradually moving from the industrial stage of its development to the information one, therefore, after 4 years, the highest demand in the labor market should be for specialists who can work with their heads:

• sales managers;
• translators and linguists;
• IT specialists and experts in the field of computer software;
• scientists - in particular, in the fields of space research, aircraft manufacturing, mechanical engineering, medicine, and programming.

Specialists working in the service sector will be in high demand. Until humans are replaced by robots, these professions can safely be called eternal. The demand for such professions increases as business develops, and the requirements put forward by employers to those wishing to get a job change quite dynamically, depending on the current economic situation.

Of course, choosing a profession is an important stage in the life of every person, because work will not only feed you, but will also allow you to enjoy life.

Your choice should be based both on your own abilities and inclinations, and on market conditions. For example, there is currently an acute shortage of blue-collar skills on the market; they will be able to find employment without difficulty drivers, food sellers, cooks and construction workers, among highly qualified workers there is a demand for doctors, teachers, engineers and accountants.

If you are the owner of the named profession, then any labor exchange will find a vacancy for you, but if you are just choosing your calling, then you should familiarize yourself with the list of promising professions for the next 5 years.
