Agriculture, service, and IT - the spheres of most popular professions in Armenia

Agriculture, service, and information technologies: these areas dictate the professions that are in greatest demand on the Armenian labor market. Director of the Professional Orientation Methodic Center of the Ministry of Labor and Social Affairs of the Republic of Armenia Haykuhi Gevorgyan adds that in addition to the demand for the profession, it is also necessary to take into account the demand for capacities.

“For instance, a child prefers the sphere of tourism, service, but does not possess the necessary skills of productive communication. But would he be a specialist in-demand? Certainly not. Therefore, it is necessary to compare each profession with a range of skills represented on the labor market,” the director of the center says. 

Haykuհi Gevorgyan considers the main mission of the center to ensure the availability of services and the system of professional orientation of the person throughout his/her life. What does the structure for the implementation of this mission? What strange requirements do the employers have? The answers to these and many other questions in the program “Questioning the Powerholder”.
