• Profiles of specialists by level: how the knowledge of Middle, Middle+, and Senior positions differs in practice.
• “Interview bluffing” — how often candidates attempt to present wishful thinking as real experience.
• Market requirements in 2025 and a forecast for 2026. 
• Potential industry trends.
