Overall, in the first quarter of 2013, 29 thousand new jobs were set up in Kyiv, which is 9% more than in January-March 2012. However, applicants are undervalued by employers today," Sukhomlyn said.
 
"Today, the parties have their own interests. Banking sector wants to get normal specialists, universities are able to prepare them, the employment centers provide contact with candidates. The specificity of the capital employment center is that we have registered 82% of people with complete higher education, no other administrative region has such a rate. Of this amount, the first place is taken by accounting experts, followed by engineers and lawyers. These people can be further prepared with our help according to the specific requirements of employers," the official noted.

"In this regard, bankers and IT companies can help with creating jobs for new technologies, we – with our labor resources database, the higher education establishments - with further training or retraining. The consolidated work of all these parties will reduce unemployment in the capital as well as in the whole country," he added.
