What professions are the most in demand on the Internet?
When I started working on the Internet, I was thinking about what profession to choose, I also asked myself this question and tried to understand which professions are popular, in demand and highly paid? I tried to change direction several times, thinking that I could earn more in that profession.
Everyone who makes good money now has gone through this stage. Let's think about who makes good money, what does he do? After several months of changing types of activities, I realized that professionals who like what they do, no matter what profession, earn good money.
In any profession you can become a highly sought after and highly paid specialist, no matter if you are a designer, programmer or copywriter.
I even know administrators of VKontakte groups who earn from $1,000 a month and all year round travel with this money.
To choose your Internet profession, you need to proceed from what you like to do most, what brings you pleasure. If you choose a profession in which you think you will earn more, but it will not be fun, then you understand that you will have less desire, inspiration and motivation, and this is precisely the main factor of success.

The labor market changes every year, so it is difficult to predict what the most in-demand professions will be in 10 years. The directions that will lead in Russia by 2019 can only be guessed at, because the need for professionals depends on several factors.
Top 10 most in-demand professions in Russia in 2019
It is possible to accurately answer the question of what are the most in-demand and highly paid professions in Russia from two positions: in terms of government orders for specialties and in terms of research. Based on the number of budget (free) places in the country’s universities, it is easy to guess which specialists are currently in greater demand.
According to independent studies, the demand for workers directly depends on the pace of development of a particular industry, the level of wages, and the shortage of specialized workers.
Based on these indicators, it is possible to predict which professions will be in demand in Russia by 2019.

Construction and design specialists
A study of labor market trends showed that due to large-scale construction projects initiated by the state, there is a shortage of construction and design workers. The greatest demand is for professions.
There are a lot of different specialties and professions in Russia. Let's figure out what professions are the most popular in Russia.
The period when the professions of geologist, astronaut, and pilot were popular has sunk into oblivion. The era of admiration for the ubiquitous and now unclaimed lawyers and economists is already upon us.
And there was a time when girls with a comb instead of a microphone in their hands sang songs in front of the mirror, dreaming of being the second Anna German, and it was cute. And the boys lived with the dream of becoming a tractor driver, or simply a driver of something, and flying into space.
Who are our heroes today? Although heroes may differ in goals... Who do young people want to be today?
Of the several children I interviewed aged 10 years and a little older, many strive for completely earthly ideals: they want to become photographers, “computer specialists”, doctors. But the children are very unspoiled. After all, a lot depends on the parents: those who have seen selfishness and dream of embodying an imprinted pattern of behavior in everything in life, including in their work. Are there not enough girls who dream of a career as a fashion model, of a seemingly easy and carefree life, and at kindergarten age spend most of their time taking selfies with everything? Are there not enough boys who prioritize money in life and grow up on this “leap”? And this is all our future, in 15 years... a generation that will show the fruits of today's public education.
And today, first of all, IT specialists are in demand, of course.. This is due to the fact that the Internet and means of communication occupy more and more space in people’s lives. Information technologies have shrouded the entire space of the planet in invisible threads. And, naturally, expanding the horizons of any commercial area entails an increase in profits, which is reflected in the salaries of employees attracted to this area. There is a prospect, and the Internet will disappear with the same probability as electricity throughout the world, which means it will only grow and prosper, in the near future for sure; this is interesting to many: and therefore truly attractive, it creates the illusion that you are at the helm of world events, that you are involved in something great and global, if you understand buttons, diagrams, advertising, etc. A combination of fashion and profit.
However, it is worth noting that the popularity and demand for IT specialists are not constant values, judging by the trends of the last 5-6 years. One thing is clear: workers will always be needed here, in the future more than now. And despite the abundance of resumes (we are talking about workers in this field), few are able to work; only a few are worthy of a good position. So a worthwhile employee still needs to be found, and there are thousands who are ready to do anything—often ready to do anything in words only. Most of the capable ones find work while still studying at the university, quickly becoming experienced and in demand. The salaries of IT specialists (and good professionals) are the highest among the national averages. In addition, it increases annually by 25-30%, according to statistics.

(2013, website working-papers.ru)
According to FOM surveys (Fund public opinion, mid-2013):
Parents consider the medical profession to be the most prestigious for their children.. Fathers and mothers want to see their sons: military, builders, programmers; daughters - teachers, designers, artists. “And in both groups there is such a “specialty” as “ good man" Russians themselves are generally satisfied with their profession and do not want to change it. Those few who would still like to change their specialty dream of becoming businessmen, designers or doctors" (fom.ru)
To the question “What professions today, in your opinion, are the most popular, what do today’s young people most often want to become? Please name three professions (specialties).” FOM respondents answered:
9% - businessman, entrepreneur,
8% programmer,
7% doctor, medic,
6% seller,
6% director, manager,
5% banker
4% police officer, Ministry of Internal Affairs, Ministry of Emergency Situations.
According to respondents, such professions as engineer, welder, oil worker, journalist, etc. are not very popular.
And at the same time (despite the lack of prestige of blue-collar professions, for example) the same respondents believe that what the country needs most are representatives of blue-collar professions, and answer the question accordingly to the question “Representatives of what professions and specialties, in your opinion, are most needed by Russia, our society as a whole?
37% are aware of the shortage of workers (turners, mechanics, welders, machine operators, electricians, milling operators),
21% believe that there are not enough doctors,
18% - teachers, pedagogues,
10% - builders,
9% - engineers,
5% are agricultural workers.
And an amazing thing was noted by 10% of respondents: they believe that the country lacks good, competent, intelligent, highly qualified specialists in general.
To the FOM’s question, “Are there professions whose representatives cause you wariness and hostility? If yes, then name these professions.” respondents answered that they most often experience these feelings in relation to:
9% to a police officer, Ministry of Internal Affairs, FSB,
in 4% to a doctor, medic,
3% to the seller,
2% to the politician deputy,
at 2 to a lawyer, judge, prosecutor
That is, it turns out that we (or the children of Russians) want to become those whom we fear? Or become better than those who currently occupy these professional niches? Moreover, a doctor is the most respected profession, and a lawyer still occupies one of the first places in the ranking of prestigious and profitable specialties.
When choosing between a profession that they like and one that generates income, the majority choose the one that generates income: 37 to 56% in age category 18-30 years old, 34 to 58% in the age category 31-45 years old.
50% changed their field of activity, 39% were satisfied with their profession.
An interesting opinion (survey data) is published by the website moeobrazovanie.ru (despite the prestige of the professions of a doctor, teacher, programmer, many more young people dream of becoming a director):
Technical professions are also popular among Russian graduates: for example, engineers and technicians in various fields of production. We can also conclude that many applicants want to work in the field of science, choosing professions such as microbiologist, biophysicist, chemist, bionicist, ecologist, geophysicist and others. They also see work in the field of IT technologies as prestigious. In addition, applicants are not averse to working as managers and managers. It is worth noting that these professions are included in the ranking of the most in demand today and will be just as in demand by 2020.
Modern schoolchildren do not lose interest in medical professions. There are many doctors of various specializations in the top 300: surgeon, therapist, dentist, veterinarian, orthopedist, virologist, nurse and so on. But teaching professions are clearly not in favor with today’s youth, although they are not included in the ranking of unclaimed professions.
Director 100%
Surgeon 99%
Architect 99%
Biochemist 97%
Astronomer 96%
Researcher 94%
Private detective 94%
Design engineer 94%
Engineer 93%
Civil Engineer 93%
Photographer 93%
Sound engineer 93%

Manager 93%"
The most popular creative professions in Russia (according to the portal proprof.ru) are:
Web designer
Presenter or artist
Model
Florist
Artist
Dancer
Interior designer
Stylist and hairdresser
Journalist
Photographer
One of the most necessary professions, which will be in demand in the future, according to the site proprof.ru, will be:
Specialists in the field of programming and information technology
Psychoanalysts
Environmentalists
Landscape designers
Logistics specialists
TV producer,
HR Manager,
Biotechnologist,
Auditor,
Image maker.
Due to the fact that for a long time in our society there has been a tendency for the younger generation to prefer the legal and economic spheres as the main labor activity— the niche of blue-collar jobs turned out to be almost empty. There was a shortage of “ordinary hard workers”, engineers, professionals in hard work, and representatives of “blue collar” workers.. It was also completely “out of fashion” to be a doctor or a teacher, as we see now - the situation is being corrected.
Today they are trying to compensate for this failure: universities are opening new “working” areas of study, competitions for them are not as difficult as for more popular specialties.
According to statistics, approximately a third of the Russian population are office workers: 40-45 million for 143 million people (2014). And of the share of the working population, in general, office personnel occupy ⅔: 45 million out of 71 million working people.
Average wages office clerks make 35 thousand rubles, while the average salary of “hard workers” is almost twice as much.
The former spend an average of 9 hours a day at their workplace, the latter - 7 hours” (Droplak.ru, article “Offices are houses of cards of illusions”)
But in practice it turns out, that regardless of what faculty a person graduated from, what he became upon leaving the university, about 80% of newly graduated specialists go to work in the field of management, most often becoming sales managers. Here the most unpleasant thing becomes clear: your higher education no one needs it (this doesn’t mean you don’t need to study!)... and that if you can’t find a job with your two higher degrees, you’ll have to go work as a courier along with those who barely finished school. Brains, as we see, are not always a guarantee of monetary profit; you need luck, acumen, strength and something else. Many of those who are actually capable, already at the learning stage, cling to any opportunities to earn money.
« According to Forbes,The top ten includes the following prestigious professions: firefighter,
doctor, nurse, scientist, teacher, military man, policeman, clergyman, collective farmer, engineer. According to the results of a sociological study by VTsIOM, among
respected include such professions as lawyer, doctor, economist, banker, programmer, civil servant, businessman, worker, teacher, artist" (information from the study, website teoria-practica.ru)
The most popular part-time jobs among students (data from the website working-papers.ru):
Courier,
Waiter,
Sales consultant,
Loader,
Promoter,
Merchandiser,
Interviewer,
Copywriter,
Sales Manager,
PC operator, call center.
The Russians’ opinion that “clergyman” and “good person” are professions is pleasing and at the same time causes conflicting feelings...
The most popular areas of study at universities
What a person wants to become should, in theory, determine what profession he will study. But here it’s a little different, I’ll repeat the data again: about 80% of university graduates go to work outside their specialty. The point, of course, is partly that crusts are not a ticket to the world, but also that for many a stable, warm place is much preferable to risk and search for oneself, self-realization.
At the beginning of the 21st century the picture was like this:
About the trend of applicants (not only from Khabarovsk) choosing humanitarian and creative professions that has been persisting for many years, and about other things in the story of a local TV channel:
According to data for 2013: the most popular universities: MGIMO, MIPT, Higher Research University (with admission to budget places of more than 300 people per place) and the corresponding specialties in them, the picture below shows the most popular areas;
in favor medical universities, only 4 out of 48 Russian medical universities enrolled those with a Unified State Examination score below 70 (not excellent students, but good students); technical and natural science groups of areas began to actively accept: “Nuclear Physics and Technology”, “Chemistry”, “Oil and Gas Business”, “Information Security”, a little less active: “Aviation systems (operation)”, “Construction”, “Chemical” biotechnology", "Physics"; Agrarian universities lag far behind other universities in terms of admission quality.
Among Moscow applicants, the most prestigious and interesting areas of training were: management, economics, information technology, foreign languages and jurisprudence. Economics and management were preferred by about 85% of the surveyed visitors to the 24th International Moscow Exhibition “Education and Career - 21st Century”. The reasons for this choice, in the opinion of young people, are simple: the specialties are universal and in demand.
In our society, there have long been debates about whether we need higher education, and even more so whether we need it if most of those who want to become diploma holders go to work in other fields. Of course, no matter what we say now, the one who makes the decisions is unlikely to listen, but still... We need higher education! Naturally, the best education is self-education, and no fake exams or grades given for anything will improve your intelligence, but among this mass of those who went to study, because everyone did, many became at least a little better. And with higher education losing its universal accessibility and popularity, some will remain doomed to exist in the unenlightened darkness of ignorance. People will not be able to make the choice to be smarter if everyone around them has made the opposite choice; more precisely, a few will comprehend the heights of education, and 99% will be mired in freedom from the mind.
While you have the opportunity, it’s worth learning.
The period has passed when the professions of astronauts and pilots were popular and every schoolchild dreamed of them. The time of admiration for the ubiquitous lawyers and economists is also behind us. Every year there are dramatic changes in the labor market, and 2016 was no exception. Forecasting experts have revealed a ranking of the most popular and in-demand professions for the next decade. Let's look into the future and find out what these professions are and what skills the representatives of each of them have.

In addition to “golden hands”, a modern automotive technician must possess foreign languages, keep abreast of the latest technical developments and have a broad outlook.
Doctor
The medical field is suffering more than ever from a shortage of professionals. Heavy workloads and meager salaries have forced many specialists to change their favorite profession to a more profitable one.

Beauty specialists
The earnings of professional hairdressers and makeup artists tempt school graduates; they bypass higher education and, after completing courses, go to work. But it’s unlikely that they’ll make it good craftsmen, because they are obtained only from well-educated people, with knowledge of psychology, marketing and an excellent technical base.
Logisticians
People are coordinators, capable of solving several problems at once. They carry out the complete delivery chain: coordinating the warehouse, purchasing and transport. It is not easy to get such a job; employers place high demands on candidates: in addition to knowledge of languages, specialized education and good work experience, they must know the specifics of the production process and customs legislation.
Marketers
The oversaturation of the market with goods and services has led to the emergence of this interesting profession. There is a need to track consumer preferences and, thereby, increase the level of turnover of the company. Excellent marketers will be people who have a strategic mindset and are able to manage the system.
Sales Representative
This promising and in-demand profession is classified as difficult. Not everyone can succeed in this field. Constant stress, psychological work with customers, constant driving through city traffic jams - this is only a small part of everything that a sales representative will have to face. This job is created for positive people who can be liked and are ready for daily stress.
Cook
Chefs are still not giving up their leading positions. Their average salary remains at the level of 50-70 thousand rubles. But ordinary chefs have become truly popular; their salaries have increased by more than 12 thousand rubles in just a year, this makes it possible to start earning money now with a good prospect in the future. Talent, enthusiasm and good aesthetic taste- a good start to start a career.
Whatever profession you choose, it is important to remember that specialists with basic skills and knowledge are always in demand. Enthusiasts, capable of learning and possessing vital energy, will be able to try their hand at any field and achieve success in it, making a dizzying career.
