In the article represented main directions of the globalization impact on the unemployment structure and dynamics in the three Russian Federal districts. The directions were identified based on socio-economic indicators analysis and sociological research "Globalization and unemployment" (carried out in 2014 in the Central, Volga and North Caucasian Federal districts with the assistance of the Moscow State Regional University; random sampling, quota (gender, age, region of residence) repetitions; n = 1286). The main channels of the impact of globalization on the changing structure and dynamics of unemployment in the Central, Volga Region and North Caucasus Federal Districts are changes in various spheres of society, namely: 1. in the economic sphere - a world division of labour, in which Russia occupies a place of natural resources producers. There is a tendency to the moving to a group of spare manufacturers (working places will be provided only a small part of the population); 2. in the political sphere - a creation of large unions and associations based on the open labour and capital markets which is increases competition. 3. in the cultural sphere - replication and spread of Western values and way of life. This lead to increase in the mismatch between the real labour needs of the economy and professional preferences of Russians. 4. in the social sphere - polarization of the population on a global scale, the growing gap between rich and poor, increasing of social inequality.
