When looking for a promising place of work or in an effort to get a relevant education, many people look at the top paid professions in Russia. After all, everyone wants to have a profitable, sought after and prestigious profession.
American rating
Doctors occupy seven first places in the list of the most prestigious and profitable professions in America. For example, an anesthetist in the United States earns an average of 290 thousand dollars a year. The salary of the surgeon is 260 thousand dollars, the gynecologist - 210 thousand and so on. Even the director of a store in America receives a more modest salary than an anesthetist's nurse.
The specialty of the doctor was included in the list of highly paid professions in Russia. With us, it is in third place in terms of prestige, but it is not considered profitable. According to sociologists, the profession of a doctor is considered prestigious due to the demand for good specialists. In addition, she belongs to important and moral specialties.
VTsIOM data
The highest paid professions in Russia are listed as follows:
1. Judge, lawyer, lawyer, notary.
2. Top manager, director.
3. Pharmacist, doctor.
4. Bank employee.
5. Financier, economist.
6. Businessman.
7. Deputy, minister, civil servant.
8. An employee of a computer company, a programmer.
9. Auditor, accountant.
10. Worker of show business.
True, it is worth noting that the highest paid professions in Russia are constantly changing, as their demand is changing. Today, lawyers are no longer specialists who earn the most. Many legal workers have very low salaries. Yes, and finding a job in the specialty immediately after graduation is very problematic. So, girls who graduated from a law school have to work as secretaries in the courts, where there is neither prestige nor profit.
Prestigious and highest paid professions in Russia
What specialties are guaranteed to bring income? One can argue with the VTsIOM rating, because the salary of a minister cannot be less than the salary of a lawyer or even a director. The highest income in our country comes from the profession of a "senior official", and it is unlikely that anyone will dare to argue with this.
In the next place on the list of “Highest paid professions in Russia” is a leading position in the field of gold, oil production, aluminum, nickel and copper. These professions have always brought good profit, and this will continue until natural reserves run out on Earth. Entrepreneurs take the third place of honor in the list. Fourth - bankers and those close to them.
The salary of a bank employee has always been high, and to this day the situation has remained the same. But getting the job of managing a large organization is not so simple. Fifth place in the ranking is given to the profession "programmer" and specialists working in the field of innovation. And according to the forecasts of sociologists, very soon it will be possible to rely on technical specialties, the profitability and prestige of which will increase significantly.
In general, we can conclude that the profitability of the profession, of course, matters, but still it is better to focus not only on this factor. You should like the work and match your interests and character. Indeed, everything is constantly changing in the world, and it is quite possible that the profession that you have chosen for yourself will become the most profitable and in demand.
