Choosing a profession is a question that everyone faces. WITH early childhood a person is trying to understand what place he will occupy in adult life. Some sincerely believed in a career as a firefighter, some wanted to become a ballet actor, and some dreamed of selling sweets to children. Unfortunately or fortunately, not all children's wishes come true. With age comes understanding: ideal profession- this is not only a favorite, but also a sought-after business. Today's schoolchildren and applicants must anticipate changes in the labor market. In this regard, you should understand the list of in-demand professions in 2020-2025. It must be capacious and justified - then it will be possible to take advantage of freedom of choice.
What was relevant before
The first professions appeared even before the emergence of civilization. Then among the ancient people it had a clear, specific character. The man's task was to ensure the safety of the "home", women and children. He also had to provide the tribe with food. Women raised children and made sure that the fire in the family hearth always warmed the household. The redistribution of responsibilities appeared when humanity began to change its usual way of life. Nomadic tribes became sedentary, development began Agriculture. A profession such as tillage appeared.
The hard physical labor with which people cultivated the land pushed society to invent more convenient devices. A craft appeared. Over time, the specialties of potters and blacksmiths arose - these were professions associated with the future. Dynasties of masters constantly improved their skills, which triggered progress. Ultimately, this led to what are now about forty thousand different professions.
The emergence of narrow specialization
Already in the twentieth century, an urgent need arose for the division of labor. If previously “jacks of all trades” were irreplaceable and in great demand, then in conditions of an overloaded labor market and a constant increase in demand for goods, narrow specialists were needed. The first to understand this was Henry Ford, who divided car production into conventional workshops. Each of them produced a separate part of the general mechanism. People worked where they were more successful. The result was an increase in output finished products several times. Ford's example was followed by other major manufacturers, and now every enterprise uses the assembly line method.
How was the progress
In industrial Russia throughout the twentieth century, traditional factory workers were popular; they received good salaries, and young people, wanting to be useful, gladly went to work for large enterprises. However, after the breakup Soviet Union many factories have lost their stability. Started new era in the labor market - the development of the service sector. Construction was no less active - big cities built up with high-rise buildings. Thus, at the beginning of the 2000s, new, promising professions became the professions of a builder, mason, plasterer, as well as managers, waiters, specialists in the field of restaurant and tourism business and other service workers.
In 2007, society increasingly wondered what professions would be in demand in 10 years. The applicants understood that their entire subsequent life depended on their choice. Then the ratings of the professions of the future were full of sales managers, marketers, customer service specialists, IT engineers, lawyers, economists and some others. This suggests that at that time the service sector continued to develop and the demand for qualified specialists was constantly increasing. But even then, a development trend in the field of scientific research began.
Scientific development today
Now scientific research is given a decisive place. The future development of the country and society depends entirely on the daily achievements of scientists. Peculiarities scientific development are that there is a clear division of science into several independent disciplines. This allows you to decide in more detail current issues. Research and experiments on at this stage development of mankind are aimed primarily at solving environmental problems. Thus, an expert in the field of alternative energy will be in great demand on the labor market in just a few years. The field of medicine is no less important, since prolonging life and improving its quality are paramount issues of our time.
Medical professions
The development of technology allows specialists to constantly improve. However, there is another side to this coin: workers need to improve their skills and undergo retraining programs. Undoubtedly, the results are worth all the effort - because they prolong human life.
The future is theirs
It is easier to present the list of in-demand professions in 2020-2025 as a list:
- Surgeon. This specialist must keep up with the times. Thus, already in 2012, an operation was performed to implant a lower jaw implant, which was pre-printed on a 3D printer. Surgeries to implant artificial organs such as kidneys, liver and even heart are well known. The ability to use completely new technologies is the most important skill of a successful specialist of the future.
- Healthcare Manager. A representative of this profession will have to select and coordinate a team of scientists, engineers, developers and researchers working together to achieve commercially promising goals.
- Medical device architect. This is a symbiosis of the profession of an engineer and a medical worker. This specialist will develop the design of medical equipment, as well as ensure its normal functioning. This profession is also called "bioengineer". Where to study? In universities that have areas of “medical photonics”, “biotechnical and medical devices and systems”, “computer technologies in medical physics”.
- Genetic consultant. This is a specialist in the field of genetics who identifies hereditary diseases, defines individual characteristics metabolism and studies diseases that cause viral and bacterial infections.
- Molecular nutritionist. The responsibilities of a representative of this profession will include studying the molecular composition of food and developing an individual nutrition plan for each patient.
Industry
In order to understand the question of what professions will be in demand in 10 years, you should analyze economic development countries at present. The leading sector of the economy in Russia is industry. This is the most important factor influencing the development of the state. A specialist who has connected his life with this field will never be left without work.
Where to go?
Types of industry:
- Food.
- Easy.
- Chemical.
- Mining.
- Metallurgy (ferrous and non-ferrous).
- Mechanical engineering and metalworking.
- Fuel and electricity.
- Coal, oil and gas.
- Lesnaya.
Thus, industry provides society with everything that is necessary for its normal functioning. Food industry of the future, for example, is engaged in breeding new varieties of plants that humanity eats. The number of vacancies in industry is always higher than in other industries. In addition, there is a need to optimize production, so, in addition to representatives of blue-collar professions, the work of economists, biologists, and many other specialists will be useful here.
Indispensable in industry
So what are the most in-demand professions in 2020-2025? The list will look like this:
- Design engineers, who will design new equipment and invent more modern technology.
- Nanotechnologies, whose area of work is cutting-edge nanotechnology.
- Chemists, biotechnologists, petrochemists, employed in all industries chemical industry: from household chemicals to complex chemical substances used in production.
- Seamstresses, textile workers, cutters, whose work will always be in demand in
- Lumberjacks, mechanics, sawyers, ensuring the correct distribution of forest resources.
Professions in demand in 2020-2025: list for men
Many traditionally male professions have been mastered by women over time. So, now ladies can be not only drivers and bosses, but also politicians, police officers, and installers. But, despite the widespread prevalence of such professions among the fairer sex, some areas are much more suitable for men. These include the professions of a sailor, pilot, miner, lumberjack, plumber, bodyguard, security specialist, firefighter, military man, as well as a builder or scientist. Most promising areas for men are considered:
- Programming.
- Design.
- Engineering.
- Cyberprosthetics.
- City farming (organization of production of farm products in a metropolis).
- Space industry - piloting spaceships, cosmogeology and galactic architecture.
It so happened that technical warehouse More men are endowed with intelligence than women. This plays into the hands of the stronger sex: the rapid development of science and industry requires not only an increase in the number of workers, but also the involvement of technical minds. Designing, drawing, planning, organizing and optimizing production require a strong and strong-willed person at the head of the table. Often such positions are occupied by men.
Professions in demand in 2020: list for girls
Representatives of the fair half of humanity are not inferior to the male part of the population. Hard work, punctuality, clarity of action and non-standard approach distinguish female specialists from the vast majority of male colleagues. Nowadays, the ability to overcome difficulties at work with dignity is also inherent in women. Thus, the areas of work for women are very diverse: from creative professions, in which girls are traditionally considered professionals, to complex technical sciences. This may include the work of a teacher, a marketing, tourism or advertising manager, a realtor, a designer of all kinds, as well as a psychologist and even a security specialist.
The most popular “female” professions in ten years will be the following professions:
- Journalist.
- Editor.
- Nanomedica.
- Space tourism manager.
- Game teacher (specialist in teaching children through games).
- Mind fitness trainer (brain training).
Women will not be left without work. Sustainable life position, activity, enterprise, which calmly coexists with tenderness and complaisance, will always be useful in the labor market. No direction is complete without participation female hand. In addition, among the students at the country's leading universities, the vast majority are representatives of the fairer sex. Educated girls are capable of not only building brilliant career, but also teach important knowledge to your children.
How to choose the ideal profession?
Applicants are faced with a difficult choice: to go to study in the direction in which their heart lies, or to choose an unloved but in-demand profession? Everyone decides this for themselves. However, careerists who are successful in their field advise finding a middle ground. Not a single profession, even the most relevant one in the future, guarantees complete material security. The way it turns out future life a person depends only on his desire to move and develop within his direction. But do you want to grow in something you don’t love? Definitely not. Therefore, you need to go where it will be interesting to work first, and the rest will follow.
Development of science and technology
The speed of progress is impressive. Just ten years ago, humanity could not imagine what science would be capable of. today. Even now it’s hard to believe that implants are vital important organs can be printed on a 3D printer that the space tourism industry not only exists, but is also actively developing. That nanotechnology occupies a leading place in industrial development. It is difficult to imagine what in-demand professions will be in 2020-2025. The list can only be conditional. But one thing is clear: the future cannot manage without qualified specialists. This means you need to learn, develop and work hard on yourself.
With the development of technological progress, many professions are no longer necessary, because now they are replaced by automated devices and various gadgets. But in the last century, these professions were very useful and in demand.

Instead of machines, special people were previously used to set the pins
The work was difficult, noisy and poorly paid
As a rule, little boys were hired for this work. The guys setting the pins in the bowling alley have been replaced by machines
Alarm Clock Man
These people walked along a certain route, knocking on the windows of their clients with a long stick, throwing stones and screaming at the top of their lungs until they were sure that they had woken up people who did not want to sleep through work
The alarm clock man has also become unnecessary. Various gadgets now help us wake up on time
Nowadays such people are called hooligans
Computer
IN English dictionary Webster's 1828 definition of the word computer is: "A person who does calculations." Before it was a thing, it was a person, usually a young woman. As you may have guessed, they were engaged in various calculations and calculations, because someone had to do this work. Now this word has a completely different definition

Currently, “lecturers” have been replaced by players, radios and other passive entertainment gadgets
Ice Cutter
Before the invention of the refrigerator, to preserve food, you had to collect ice in the winter to use it in the summer. Ice collection was carried out by special carvers
They cut blocks of ice from frozen lakes, risking death from hypothermia if they fell into an ice hole.
Nowadays ice is not transported from place to place, but rather special refrigeration equipment is used.
Pre-radar listening to enemy aircraft
Soon after the invention of airplanes, armies around the world developed methods to detect the sound of engines approaching from the horizon.
Before radar was invented, people relied on workers' sensitive ears and acoustic mirrors. Hearing the approach of an enemy aircraft, these listeners sounded the alarm. Detection of enemy aircraft has become fully automated
Probably the professional listeners were very bored, and they could have used the services of lecturers, but, unfortunately, this was contrary to the peculiarities of their work
Pied Piper
When Europe suffered from massive rat infestations, this work was one of the most popular
The rats often carried diseases, and these people risked getting sick from being bitten, but their work was an important public service
This was the best "trap" for rats since guaranteed result, but at the same time it was also the most expensive
Lantern Lighter

People divided into groups and looked after problem areas where logs could get stuck, forming some semblance of a dam

In cases where they were unable to do this, workers used dynamite to clear large congestions.
Working with dynamite, standing above the water on logs connected to each other, deaths on the job were a common occurrence for timber raftsmen, as they were often overwhelmed by logs or drowned in the water when they found themselves underneath them. At the same time, their work was considered prestigious and highly respected

This is how special protection for graves called “Mortsafe” appeared.
Daguerreotypist
The daggerotype was the predecessor of photography, only in their case the final image was obtained not on photographic paper, but on a polished silver-plated copper plate.
