Summary/Abstract: For the last several years, the situation of young people in the labor market has been difficult. On the onset of their careers, they have to cope with numerous challenges and requirements; they have to adapt their skills to the capacity and needs of the challenging labor market. Thence, it is important for the young generation to make the right decisions concerning the choice of future professions. This choice is frequently made as a result of common opinions rather than actual skills and interests. This article aims to provide guidelines for the decision-making process connected with the choice of profession. The analysis focuses on the professional situation of sociologists.
