The once prestigious professions of lawyer, manager and accountant are now on the list of the least in demand. There are too many representatives of these specialties on the market, and their experience and qualifications often leave much to be desired.
Modern applicants should choose specialties that are more popular among employers. The current top ten includes the most scarce professions in Russia according to leading headhunters.

Machine-building enterprises, where production is increasingly associated with complex electronics, are experiencing no less shortage.
9. IR manager
Investor relations specialists are highly regarded in large companies. Only a highly qualified specialist can correctly present a project and receive funding.
8. Marketers
The shortage of specialists in demand forecasting is noted by all recruiting agencies without exception. IT marketing specialists are especially appreciated.

Professional managers are most in demand in IT projects, real estate management, large trading companies, design and research institutes and centers.

According to headhunters, no more than 1.5 resumes are received for one engineer vacancy, while not all applicants meet the qualification requirements. In the 1990s, a strong cohort of engineering specialists left factories in favor of commerce and entrepreneurship, and specialists without proper experience came to replace them.
