Abstract: The purpose of the work is to analyze the state and structure of the labor market using the example of the category of young professionals, to identify the main trends that have formed in recent years, after the end of the pandemic and with the beginning of a special military operation, to assess how the labor attitudes of employees have changed. Research methods: secondary analysis of the results of sociological research conducted by various research centers and recruiting agencies on remote employment, changing employee behavioral attitudes and changes in the labor market and employment. The article reveals some characteristic changes in the structure of the labor market and employment due to the transition to remote employment as part of quarantine measures during the COVID-19 pandemic, generational change, as well as the reassessment of their rights and freedoms by employees of organizations. The interrelation of the growing interest in remote employment of the younger generation under the age of 25 has been revealed for a number of interrelated reasons: Internet and information technology, remote employment, stability in life and great dependence on parents, a growing standard of living and the associated increase in self-esteem. Demographic problems and, as a result, a shortage of labor, partly related to the withdrawal of a huge proportion of the able-bodied population to the defense sector, the lack of competitive salaries leads to the fact that employers will have to adapt to new realities and rebuild their thinking, including for the younger generation, in order to fill the personnel deficit. The transition to hybrid work formats using remote employment allows us to solve both the problems of personnel shortage and to interest young workers who prefer remote employment and free working to other methods of non-material incentives.

Abstract: Today, attention is focused on three main areas of university activity, which are called "missions". These areas include educational and research functions, as well as the transfer of innovations. The third mission of the university means its social responsibility to local communities, participation in the cultural and economic development of the state. The introduction of digital technologies and the processes of globalization have a significant impact on the fields of activity of universities, presenting both challenges and new opportunities for their development. The purpose of this article is to consider the scientific discussion about the third mission of the university, as well as to identify opportunities and limitations in its implementation. The increased use of digital technologies and globalization are leading to changes in higher education, affecting all three levels of university activity. In this work, general scientific approaches to the study of social institutions are applied, in particular, the method of comparative analysis was applied. A review of the literature on the topic is presented, the importance of involving different stakeholders in university education is revealed. Universities are facing new challenges, but there are also prospects for changing the educational process. At the turn of the century, universities were experiencing crisis and decline, and pressure was exerted on them to shift the focus of their activities from the main missions to the third mission, expressed in the wording "responsibility to local communities". Research in this field is often devoted to the traditional tasks facing the university, or they consider the third mission in a narrow sense. However, it is important to identify both the positive consequences and the contradictions that higher education faces at the stage of the emergence of new functions. The university community is also offered a number of measures that could be used to solve the problems that arise.
