June 25, 2013 at 15:22The influence of buns on the choice of the company: Student Edition
Hello, Habr! As our experience has shown, career surveys among students at our Technopark can yield very interesting results (one of our past studies was vigorously discussed here). We decided not to stop - this time we found out from students by what criteria young specialists-technicians from MSTU im. Bauman who study at the Technopark.
I must admit, the study turned out to be entertaining again. Details and some thoughts - under the cut.
Work for interest
Remember that poll- 32.8% of students expect their salary after university to be more than 150 thousand rubles? Given this, it is interesting that the salary for only 23% of respondents is the key. The rest say that this is not the most, and often - not at all a significant factor of choice. Two conclusions can be drawn here:
Surprisingly, for only 23% of respondents, the company's popularity in the market is important, the rest do not attach much importance to this. However, the majority insists on the availability of training within the company. Even more pleased that the vast majority of students are set for professional and career growth in one company. Potential "flyers" were only 11%.
Paradise in an IT hut
Once again, the paradox is that many large companies are trying to provide their employees with insurance, fitness and other goodies, and for 70% of employees (or rather, future employees, and now students), this turns out to be completely unimportant. 52% and 18% believe that the main thing is interesting tasks and timely remuneration of labor, "they choose work not for fintes!"
However, perhaps the point here is that many respondents at the time of the survey may not have had full-time experience. Remembering my initial ideas about the future employer - the least concern I personally was the question of whether I would pay for the treatment of my teeth, or my insurance would do it for me. You begin to appreciate such privileges over time.
Conclusions
Well, the survey showed that students are ready at all costs to gain experience - while salary and social bonuses are fading into the background.
Two models of future specialists emerge from here:
1) Students starting a career from the second or third year. It is logical that in the pursuit of experience in solving combat missions, young workers neglect the issues of salary and social packages. Having gained the necessary experience in parallel with studying at the university, more ambitious plans can already be made for the fifth year.
2) Graduates. Young specialists with the settings described above are the best suited to work in a large company side by side with experts, or in a startup (possibly also within the framework of a large company) - however, there you have to fill in the bumps yourself. Enormous experience and professional growth, within which everyone can become a strong unit, are provided for them.
It remains to be understood how long such priorities will be strong on the path to achieving money, fame, social packages and a kicker in the office.
PS: in the comments, ideas for the next polls are accepted.

The rest say that this is not the most, and often - not at all a significant factor of choice. Two conclusions can be drawn here:
- or students have an illusory idea of the average salary in their specialty: “Pay as much as you want - at least 100 thousand, at least 150!”,
- or at the initial stage of their career, young technical experts really set other priorities, that is, they choose a company depending on the tasks that it can offer. And recalling the previous study, it is joyful that students see interesting tasks for themselves in Russian IT companies.
