This article, based on a comprehensive study of the problem of the primary choice of profession by unemployed young people, the mechanisms and features fixed in the subculture of representatives of the younger generation, which are not typical for representatives of older age groups, are considered. Particular attention is paid to the analysis of traditional and innovative philosophical antinomies of freedom in classical philosophical literature and new publications, in the applied aspect of overcoming these antinomies in the act of primary professional self-determination of the personality of a young person. Based on the results of the study, a study was conducted of the problems of professional orientation of young people, which have had their own history in our country over the past decades. In conclusion, other significant aspects of the primary choice of a future profession are considered, especially relevant for representatives of the modern digital generation of domestic youth, and destroying traditional stereotypes of general ideas about “generation Z” in their choice of a future profession.
