Kyiv’s employment centre compiled the list of the most in-demand job positions in the Ukrainian capital. Low-skilled jobs are the hardest to find workers for, it appears.
Kyiv’s top jobs
The highest number of vacancies in Kyiv in the summer period is offered to drivers, Finance.ua reported.
- Driver (1841 vacancies)
- Office cleaner (1566 vacancies)
- Specialist (1482 vacancies)
- Domestic cleaner, housekeeper (1310 vacancies)
- Removalist (1134 vacancies)
The job of a “specialist” seems rather vague, in Ukraine it could be anything from sales or marketing to a medical professional. Looking at the list, it seems like cleaners in Ukraine can definitely earn a living.
Unskilled labour is in demand
The employment agency pointed out that demand for seasonal workers outpaced the supply. It is evidenced by the situation in the labour market.
In general, the base of vacancies comprises 12.4 thousand offers. At the same time, the number of the unemployed in Kyiv for May 1 stands for 8.5 thousand people, as reported by local city job centre.
“Considering that about 9,000 vacancies are offered also from other sources, so for today, there are clear advantages in the job offer. However, the offered kind of work is generally seasonal and for low qualification levels with the corresponding salary which is slightly lower than average – 7.5 thousand [hryvnia]”, – noted the press service of the employment agency.
Experts counted that representatives of the simplest professions are fewer among the unemployed of the Ukrainian capital. Their quantity constitutes only 1.6% of the general structure of applicants.
The largest number of unemployed is among office clerks and executives – approximately 44%.
Women in Ukraine earn substantially less than men, the publication also points out. Women’s wages in the country are about 72% of a men’s average remuneration.
