In-demand professions of the future. Professions of the future are new and promising where to go to study Promising professions in the future

Hello, dear readers! I am very glad to see you!

In previous articles, we began to talk about alternative education, especially in IT professions and new professions that are not yet taught in universities (article), about the most in-demand and highly paid professions today (article). From this article you will learn how choose the right professions of the future new and promising in our rapidly changing information, digital world. To be in demand by specialists in the next decade.

What profession do you need to master today in order to be in demand as a specialist in the future?

Now every schoolchild, but not every adult, knows that humanity has stepped from the industrial era into the post-industrial (or digital, information) era. A new technological revolution has occurred. High technologies are changing the needs of humanity at an extremely fast pace. Therefore, many professions of the industrial era became unclaimed.

They were replaced by new professions that no one had heard of 5 or 10 years ago, for example, trend hunter, life coach, QA engineer, SMM manager and many others.

If so many new professions have appeared today, then what will happen in 10-20 years? Who should you study today to become a sought-after specialist in the future, to be in trend?

What skills will the professions of the future require from specialists?

We can answer this question easily by noticing the trend of a shortage of specialists in the labor market at the intersection of specialties. Analysts from recruiting companies talk about the shortage of such universal specialists.

Examples from my experience: in an IT company a business analyst and a systems analyst work together, on TV - a video designer and editor, in the field of Internet marketing - a web site designer and layout designer. There are many examples of specialists working at the intersection of professions. So, increasingly, the labor market requires professionals who can cover both professions.

We see that IT, bio- and other technologies have rapidly entered our lives, so analysts, researchers, futurologists predict the emergence of many professions at the intersection of sciences: molecular nutritionist, bioengineer, energy auditor, city farmer, etc.

The trends are such that the professions of the future will require the following skills from specialists:

• Cross-functionality, work at the intersection of professions
• Ability to think creatively
• Willingness to retrain throughout your life
• Willingness to change profession every 10 years
• Knowledge of several languages
• Willingness to move cross-culturally (willingness to work in different countries ah in connection with globalization)
• Knowledge of the basics of IT technologies
• Ability to work remotely
• Be a big date professional (collect and work with a large amount of information)
• Be able to self-learn, because technology development will be rapid
• Have a soft skill (think softly, positively, patiently, kindly achieve goals)

What professions will be needed in the next decade according to Sparks & Honey, an American research company

The research company's report has left many parents wondering if they are giving their children the right knowledge. More than 60% of the most in-demand jobs of the coming decade do not yet exist!

So, in the next 10 years there will be demand for:

• Productivity consultants
• Corporate disruptors
• Alternative currency traders
• Managing social media accounts after death
• Personal digital curators
• Specialists in the treatment of network and gadget addiction
• Virtual reality architects
• Drone management managers (delivery service)
• 3D printing template designers
• 3D printer specialists

In no era there are no professions with a great future, but only professionals with a great future. And one more thing: at all times You must choose a profession according to your liking and calling. Then your whole life will be bright and full and work will not be a burden, but a joy!

Read about how to choose a profession based on your talents and inclinations in this article.

See you soon!

Choose a profession you like!

I wish you courage and inspiration when choosing!

P.S.2 Write your questions and thoughts in the comments.

P.S.3 Subscribe to the blog - there is a subscription form below - there will be many more articles on this topic. Stay up to date with the latest trends in the labor market for yourself and your children!

Internet, after all?

Can you imagine having to look up the translation of a word in a regular paper dictionary? Or a trip to the library for the latest edition Harry Potter?

Probably not.

Most of your life is filled with all sorts of technology, but the truth is that most of the tools you use are not even fifteen years old!

Yes, you heard that right. There were no iPhones 15 years ago. Want to know something even more shocking?

By 2025, we will lose more than five million jobs as they are automated and the need for human participation will disappear, if not completely, then almost completely.

The profession of the future will be different even before you graduate from university!

But worries aside! There is some good news. What we will be doing in the future is much more interesting than the work that was offered in the past and what the majority of the population is doing today.

The time for factory workers and physical production is over... Let's let the machines do all of this.

What in return? New knowledge and innovation. In a way, machines are even doing us a favor. They free up time for research, experimentation and the ability to find interesting solutions to complex problems, such as environmental pollution.

Just look at what the student engineers on Northwestern University's mechanical engineering team are up to at solar powered(USA). They got the opportunity to design and build environmentally friendly racing cars!

Say goodbye to desk work and hello to the world of creation!

Skills for future professions

No one can say exactly what a highly paid and in-demand profession will look like in the future. However, there is 7 mandatory “skills” that you need to master to achieve success in the future.

1 Flexibilitymind and complex solution of problems/problems:

The future will present problems that you have not previously encountered, for which there are no ready-made solutions. In order to cope with them, you will have to show flexibility of mind, go “outside the box,” step back a little to see the whole picture and reorganize everything. This search is highly effective. It’s great that this skill is easy to develop and easy to practice. With each new, more complex problem, your brain will be pumped up.

2 Critical thinking:

Thanks to technology, much of today's work will be automated, but you probably won't trust it to shape your critical thinking. You must have this skill, be able to analyze different situations, consider several at once possible solutions and accept them on the fly, “passing” them through logic and reasoning.

3 Ingenuity:

Worried about robots stealing your job and profession? The more creative you are, the less likely you are to lose your job to machines. Yes it's possible artificial intelligence will surpass you in the field of calculations and diagnostics, but it is not so good at what requires creating original content, going beyond the usual. Robots can't think abstract. For now…

4 Ability to work with other people:

Eventually, machines will take over and technology will become much more advanced, so we humans will have to stick together! If you want to succeed in the future job market, you need to learn how to manage people (and robots), and also empathize with them, listen to what they have to say! You will have to work with them, which means being emotionally involved.

5 STEM education

The components of STEM are science, technology, engineering and mathematics (*STEM is an abbreviation for English words: science, technology, engineering, maths), are now in great demand as areas of development, and they will not lose their relevance in the future. You definitely shouldn't hope for this. As technology progresses, you need to hone your craft (the foundation for future success) by developing yourself in these four areas. And also, programming! Learn programming!

6 SMAC

You already understand the meaning of the word STEM, but you probably don’t know what this abbreviation means. Translated from English, SMAC sounds like: social, mobile, analytics, cloud. Learning all these skills/platforms will help you stand out in the future job market!

7 Interdisciplinary knowledge / multidisciplinary:

A future career will require “pulling” information from many areas. This will be essential to finding creative solutions to problems that arise on the path to a successful life. Great news: this skill is easy to “pump up”. To do this, you need to start reading as much as you can handle, about everything that interests you. When you go to college or university, think about a double major or two in completely different areas. Believe me, in the long run it will pay off 100%.

Professions of the future

Now you know everything you need about the skills that would be good to acquire or develop in order to, at a minimum, make good money in the near future. Now let’s look at the professions of the future.

A small warning-disclaimer: there are no such professions now, it may happen that there won’t be, so don’t be angry if your parents, hearing from you that you want to become, for example, a garbage technologist, laugh in your face.

Garbage technologist

This is probably the most unusual job, but it is vital! Think about her.

Humans generate about 1.2 million tons of waste per year, and what should we do with so much of it?

Throw it in a landfill? This is not a sustainable practice and we need to come up with another way to dispose of it.

Unfortunately, compacting garbage in the style of the robot Valli will not reduce its amount in any way, and therefore will not solve the problem.

You can learn to turn garbage into clean gas or, for example, turn it into the strongest material for constructing buildings! The possibilities are truly endless, but it's up to you to come up with the winning ideas.

Organ/Body Part Creator

Have you ever heard of the black market for organs?

Well, it really does exist, it is illegal and it is a huge problem.

Why?

Because people all over the world spend years waiting for a miracle to happen and they will be selected from the list for an eye, kidney or heart transplant.

Eventually, these people simply get tired of waiting (and for some, waiting too long means dying) and find help on the black market for organ donations, where they can buy everything they need... for a price.

Every 12 minutes, another name is added to the already gigantic waiting list, and every day approximately 21 people die because they did not receive the organ they needed to live in a timely manner.

In this situation, it is not at all surprising why the black market still exists (it is in demand)!

However, in a few years, it will be possible to create new organs and body parts from patient stem cells or other materials that we do not yet know about.

Be prepared: such a mega-demand profession will soon become available for development (as well as career growth in this area). And this time is closer than you think!

Required Skills: Strong STEM foundation, critical thinking, mental flexibility, complex problem solving and creative inclinations.

Best educational background: Biology, Genetics, Biomedical Engineering.

Memory surgeon

This is where things start to take on a sci-fi “tinge”.

What if there was a way to remove bad memories from memory, if a surgeon could eliminate mental illness or destructive behavior through intervention?

Is this possible? If so, would such a method be ethical? Will it rid the world of terrorism?

Only you can unlock access to the answers to these burning questions if you become a memory surgeon yourself.

Your future career will certainly cause controversy, but if you don't give up, it will change our world beyond recognition.

The only thing is that you will have to be careful and be 100% sure that you are removing from the person’s memory exactly those memories, “diseases,” behavior patterns that really require it. And when your friend asks you if you can delete the memories of last night’s failed night, you were able to refuse him categorically.

Personal Productivity Specialist

In order for people to compete with robots and the looming total automation of almost all work, they need to maximize their efficiency.

But it's easier said than done.

Think about the things that are holding you back from reaching your highest potential:

1. Facebook (other social networks).
2. Instagram.
3. Snapchat.
4. Netflix or YouTube.
5. Hulu (and any other website that acts as an online movie theater).
6. 24-hour news broadcast.
7. ... many other similar things.

Technologies continue to develop, and with them the number of different “distractions” increases. So if we don't maintain and maximize our efficiency, machines could really take our jobs away. They will help you raise your level!

Your job as a personal effectiveness specialist will be to analyze people's daily lives and coach them. They will have to show how to make their day more productive, how and which time destructors (chronophages) they need to immediately get rid of, how not to procrastinate, and how to train themselves to work more assertively and with greater intelligence.

P.S. Work on the name of this profession of the future is not yet finished. Offer your options.

Personal Internet of Things security specialist

We're used to calling a plumber or repairman (or doing it ourselves) if something breaks in the house, but who will you call if your smart refrigerator is hacked and it starts “signaling” the coffee maker to make 100,500 servings of coffee, and the lighting “order” to turn on and off every 5 minutes?

A personal specialist in the restoration and security of smart devices! (Long title, if you have ideas, suggest a shorter one :)

An attackable smart device is just one of many problems that the world will face when the devices we use become “smart”, able to communicate with each other wirelessly, controlled by a smartphone, etc.

As a specialist in this field, you will be responsible for a hacker attack before it causes any damage, i.e. for the very fact that the criminal managed to hack the device.

Pilot instructor

You've probably wondered what kind of flight instructor is this? Does this profession already exist?!

You are, of course, right, but we are talking about a flying human instructor.

Flying cars (we're not talking about airplanes) will exist sooner or later, but what do you think of the idea of ​​a self-flying person?

It is not a fact that people will learn to fly by 2030, but it is a matter of time and nothing more. Someday a device will be built that will allow people to fly independently.

It may be very short distances at first, but eventually people will be able to fly from one city to another, even if they are in different parts of the country!

Once this flight revolution happens, everyone will want to learn, but why are you worse than others?

And if you become one of the first, you can earn cool money.

Required Skills: STEM, critical thinking, creativity, mental flexibility, versatility, ability to approach problem solving holistically.

Best educational background: Communications, Astrology, Physics, Computer Science, Entrepreneurship.

Commercial space pilot

Elon Musk and Richard Branson will soon go into space, which means its public exploration will become a reality.

However, there is one small problem... who will fly with us?

We can't become astronauts before we explore the Moon (or Mars); it would take too much time, plus it wouldn't be practical at all.

We need someone who has experience as an astronaut, but is also trained to handle huge rockets with a lot of people on board.

It sounds like an incredibly difficult job, but if you become a space expert, you've always dreamed of being an astronaut, it's time to start thinking bigger!

You can become the best space pilot the world has ever seen!

The question “Where should I go to study?” This problem is acute for graduates: often, upon entering an educational institution, they do not fully understand what kind of profession they are choosing. This misunderstanding may persist until graduation.

Unlike Russian schools, students abroad are not only prepared for admission to specific universities, but also carry out serious work on career guidance, identifying their talents and inclinations. Students of foreign schools study a wide range of subjects: from classical civilization and psychology to robotics and the latest business technologies. They can practice rowing or debating, play chess, or attend a Shakespeare club.

The older students get, the more disciplines they try. This means that the greater the choice - what they are interested in as a future profession, what they have an inclination for. As a result, by the age of 16, 90% of foreign schoolchildren already know what they want to become.
In addition, career consultants work with students in high schools in Europe and America. Educational institutions also cooperate with large companies. Schoolchildren get the opportunity to work in starting positions during the holidays and set specific career goals for themselves.

But enrolling in an interesting specialty is not enough - it is important to understand how and where to apply the acquired knowledge. Often, Russian graduates with deep fundamental knowledge lack practice. This leads to the fact that more than half of our graduates lose interest in studying by the end of their studies and work outside their specialty.
