Professions English

Even as a child, we have tried to instill respect for the phrase «All professions are needed, all professions are important.» Indeed, any profession (profession) and the absence of significant employees in a particular area affects the population. Who of us in childhood did not dream of becoming an astronaut (cosmonaut) or pilot (pilot)? We grew up, dreams are over. Although if someone was able to make the dream a reality, he deserves only the approval and praise. Now we choose a profession, focusing on its demand in society and adequate payment. But the best option is a combination of the two causes and satisfaction from what you’re doing (job satisfaction). If you have already started to learn English, you probably already know that the work is the word work and job. The first — the word of the broader significance, indicating a regular working life for different purposes, and the second word denotes a particular activity, it is closer Russian translation for «work, office, position.» Many people decide to go to master the profession in a foreign university, and therefore the need for knowledge of occupations in English at the moment is very relevant.

Basic concepts of jobs

Before you proceed directly to the study of occupations in English, look at a few points about the job search and work process itself. People either get a job on their own, or resort to the help of employment agencies (employment office). Do not confuse the name of the employer and the applicant. In English they sound almost the same — employer and employee. You can hire (hire) and fire (fire). You can work full or part time (full — / part — time job), overtime (work overtime). Today is very popular and belonging to a liberal profession (interpreters — interpreters / translators, artists — painters / artists, journalists — journalists, and others.). Such people are called self-employed or a freelancer. They choose with whom to work and how much.

Main profession in English

Just as in Russian, professions in English vast. All study not work, so remember only those that are mentioned in the school, as well as modern, appeared in a period of intense technological development. Every day we are confronted with the drivers (drivers), sellers (salesmen / shop-assistants), employees (clerks). At school, the children are waiting for the teacher (teachers), and the Institute of teachers (professors). Medical care we provide physicians (doctors) and nurses (nurses). Free time we spend in the theater, watching a game of actors (actor / actress), or at concerts, listening to musicians (musicians), singers (singers), or assessing the performance of dance (dancers). Our home design architects (architects), the builders erected (builders) and carpenters (carpenters), and service engineers (engineers), electrical (electricians) and fitters (plumbers). In beauty salons we serve hairdressers (hair-dressers) and dentists (dentists). Our rights to protect the police (policemen) and lawyers (lawyers). A restaurant we are served by waiters (waiter / waitress), offering dishes from the chef (cook, chef). Now very popular professions such as economist (economist), secretary (secretary), programmer (programmer), manager of information technology (IT manager). But such professions in the English language, as the supervisor (inspector) and merchandiser (Trade Representative) has become part of our language! This is only a small part of the trades in the English language! If desired, you can continue this list!
