Lesson 7. Top Ten Jobs in Ukraine

Project Work

1. Read the information from the Ukrainian magazine. Say what the most demanded jobs in Ukraine are.

According to the recent research, we may say that, during the previous year the most demanded job in Ukraine was the job of a sales manager (38 thousand vacancies were offered).

The second group of jobs in demand is: builders, mechanics, metal workers, drivers, cooks and so on. In the year 2013 there were 26 thousand vacancies.

As a rule, the majority of 25 thousand vacancies for economists and financiers were offered by banks and insurance companies. Here is the list of jobs demanded in 2013-2014 in Ukraine:

2. You’ve read a piece of information about the most popular jobs in Ukraine.

a) Work in groups. Make a list of 3-4 questions to do a survey. You can ask about:

• jobs that are popular in Ukraine today;

• jobs which will be popular in the future;

• professions that are out-of-date.

b) Interview a few people in English. You can talk to the teachers in your school, or members of your family who can speak English, your elder brother or sister. (You can look through the advertisements in the newspapers or magazines about the vacancies in the place where you live and then exchange the facts you’ve found out with your classmates). c) Prepare a leaflet or write a short report on your survey.

3. Gallery Walk. Make a short presentation in class. Answer your friends’ questions about the professions you’ve prepared the information about. Do all the groups get nearly the same results?
