In Sakhalin, agriculture surpassed mining for the first time in terms of wage offers. Agricultural specialists are offered 210,800 rubles, raw material extraction workers - 207,700, production and service workers - 180,600, construction and real estate workers - 176,200 rubles.
According to the HH.ru service for the Far East, the median amount of vacancies in the region reached 99.7 thousand rubles, an increase of 11% during the year. At the beginning of 2026, the figure stood at 89.9 thousand, in July - 94.1 thousand. During the year, the supply in mining increased by 36%, in production - by 50%, in construction - by 47%.
The labor market reflects changes in the island's economy. Oil and gas projects no longer occupy the absolute first place: the agricultural sector is ahead. This is another sign of the expansion of the region's economic base and competition for specialists outside the primary industries. However, published salaries do not equate to actual earnings, and ranking alone does not demonstrate sustainable diversity.
