Currently, there is increased interest from employers in economists on the Belarusian labor market.
In just one database of the state employment service, over 780 vacancies relevant for specialists have been posted recently.
The popularity of these professionals is explained by the fact that their knowledge, skills and abilities largely determine the economic success of companies, enterprises, shopping centers, retail facilities, etc.
Peculiarities
A good specialist directly influences the stability and level of income of his organization, the development of its business, optimizing and minimizing costs.
Therefore, economists are in demand in many areas: industry, trade, healthcare, construction, agriculture, education, business, the transport industry, etc.
Economists work in ministries, banks, housing and communal services organizations, factories and plants, hospitals and clinics...
What do they do? In short, they are responsible for the economic activity of the organization.
A special feature of the profession is that an economist must not only have a perfect command of the issues within his competence, but also those related to the specifics of the entire industry in which his company operates.
For this reason, the specialist is engaged in the analysis of markets (consumer, sales, services, distribution, etc.), determining the most optimal conditions for the development of his organization.
Often, leading (chief) economists perform the functions of managers, organizing and controlling the work of, sometimes, entire departments that are subordinate to them.
Other specifics
The main task of the specialist is to collect economic data and then systematize it.
Based on the information received, plans and calculations are made regarding the company's expenses from the point of view of greatest efficiency (for example, acquisitions, advertising, investments, etc.).
In addition, the economist is involved in work related to financial and technical documentation.
Hence, another specific “feature” of the profession – there is access to commercial secrets, which the employee must carefully protect from competitors.
It is clear that one of the most important features in this field is excellent knowledge of both economic and legal nuances, including relevant legislation.
Other specific job characteristics include certain personal qualities that employers define for an employee.
Most often, the following are mentioned among these: responsibility, perseverance, resistance to stress, attentiveness, efficiency, and communication skills.
