Summary

Introduction

Both in the field of capital engineering, as well as in the sphere of construction are related with a single regulatory base (standards, norms, instructions, etc.) with some specialization and direction. All the designers are the creative workers of the various professions. Creativity, which determines the creative nature of the work, is an integral part of their professional thinking. The ability to invent, i.e. to accept new, unconventional and original design decisions, is defined by the ability to work creatively. All of that has to be paid well and bring satisfaction from the done work. The article aims to demonstrate the assessment of the financial stand of the design engineer of the design enterprise in the period of the economic crisis in Ukraine and in a number of the foreign countries. Expansion of the research provides the idea of the dynamics of vacancies and salaries for engineers of design enterprises in a specific economic context
