This year, doctors and nurses, foremen and foremen, construction managers, foremen and foremen, teachers of basic and secondary education and special needs, social workers, and warehousing staff will have great employment opportunities.
“The aging of the population is increasing the need for medical professionals. The need for nursing assistants or similar professions will continue in the future. They are also more often chosen by older jobseekers who are willing to participate in retraining programs that allow them to return to the labor market, ”said the Deputy Director of the Employment Service.
