Features of Professional Self-Determination of Modern Youth
The article presents some results of the study "Russian Youth in Nonlinear Socio-Cultural Dynamics: New Risks and Aspects of Social Tension" on the problem of professional self-determination of modern youth. This problem is considered in the context of finding yourself and your place in life, attitude to learning and aspirations for the future. The results of the study conclude that for young people is still very important issue of finding a good job, which will bring not only material comfort, but also emotional. However, the lack of knowledge about the chosen profession often leads to a loss of desire to continue training, which prolongs the process of self-determination. Young people continue to search for themselves for a long time, leaving the possibility of a change of orientation in the future. As one of the main root causes of this problem, young people point to the shortage of career guidance in schools, as well as the rapidly changing modern world.
