This article analyzes the process of professional identity formation and the psychological determinants of the recruiting system in an integrative educational environment from both theoretical and practical perspectives. In modern educational settings, the process of professional development is not limited to acquiring knowledge and skills but also involves self-recognition as a professional, forming the concept of the professional “Self,” internalizing professional values, and preparing psychologically for competition in the labor market. The integrative education model aims to develop cognitive, affective, and conative domains of a person as a whole, which facilitates the successful formation of professional identity. At the same time, in the recruiting process, a candidate’s motivational orientation, socio-intellectual competencies, personal traits, and emotional stability emerge as important determinants. The article highlights the interrelationship between professional identity and recruiting processes, as well as mechanisms for their psychological optimization.
