With a number of vacancies at Armenia’s labor market, many are simply unwilling to work in their field, Elite recruitment center president said, commenting on possible reason for migration.

“Those willing to work will always be able find jobs, however, those unwilling will keep making excuses,” Adam Nikoyan told a news conference in Yerevan.

The center CEO, Liana Khachatryan in turn, noted that young professionals are often unable to find adequate paying jobs, and when unsuccessful, leave the country. “Young people now are mostly looking to become drivers or security guards striving to find easy and well-paying jobs,” she noted.

“Men, reluctant to settle for low salaries, are in the majority among unemployed,” Ms. Khachatryan explained.
