The scientific article is devoted to the study of the current state of professional and psychological selection in the Armed Forces of Ukraine, as well as global trends in psychological study in the armies of advanced countries of the world. However, the requirements of the modern war against Ukraine actualize the need to improve professional and psychological selection with candidates from among foreigners and stateless persons. For this purpose, an analysis of possible ways to solve this problem and prospects for further research was carried out
