TYPES OF VOCATIONAL GUIDANCE WORK IN THE ECONOMIC UNIVERSITY AND ITS EFFICIENCY
The problems of self-determination and identification of oneself as a representative of civil society are now especially urgent. Modern information technology facilitates the burden of finding solutions to many life problems, but can create illusory perception of easy solutions. This also affected the search for a future profession, and, most importantly, a conscious and motivated choice. Surveys of students at universities show that many of them are not sure of the choice made and look at the future with a share of uncertainty. In modern conditions, it is necessary not only to strengthen vocational guidance work, but also to diversify the ways of its implementation as much as possible. The authors conducted a study on the basis of the management’s faculty’s contingent of the Plekhanov Russian University of Economics for the purpose of determining of the awareness’s degree of choosing economic and management as a future specialty, as well as the distribution of the types of vocational guidance activities noted by the respondents as interesting. The importance for future students of the maximum information about the directions of education and the degree of compliance with the expected results was noted. The authors proposed to expand the forms of providing such information, including in connection with the geographical sign: motivated young people who do not have the opportunity to attend events on the presentation of University activities should be provided with an online version or a remote version of such events.
