Recall, according to the Federal State Statistics Service, the number of unemployed in Russia in March amounted to 3.5 million people - 4.7% of the number of able-bodied citizens. At the same time, the release of employees is noted in certain sectors most affected by the epidemic. Most of those left without work are employees of food services, tourist centers, sellers of non-food products, drivers and hairdressers.

- Demand continues to grow from the second half of March. For example, take couriers: in March, the number of such resumes on hh.ru was at 19 thousand (a double increase compared with February), and in incomplete April their number reached 29 thousand. The list of the most popular vacancies with temporary work includes also drivers, warehouse employees, sorters, pickers, quality controllers and others related to the remote sale of goods and food products. The description of most temporary job vacancies contains a clause on training from day one, the agency reports the press service of HH.

Also, employers hire employees for such work without a resume. And this means that representatives of any professions can be employed.
