Engineering hunger as a threat to Russia

198
Not so long ago, our online publication published material on how Skolkovskiy innovators mastered millions of funds by conducting an "analysis" of those professions that will be in demand in Russia in the near future. Our regular readers will remember that the results of the “analysis” from Skolkovtsy were approximately as follows: such professions as seamstress, traffic police inspector, librarian, journalist and a number of others will go into “non-existence”, and professional and in-demand cyber wardens will replace them. -mom At first, everyone thought that this was another joke from Skolkovo - about the same as the scientific Skolkovo lectures (on 20 thousand euros per minute) of Ilya Ponomarev, who by that time did not even have a higher education. However, representatives of Skolkovo, again scattering the allocated money in their pockets, said they did not even think about joking ...

Engineering hunger as a threat to Russia


Well, in the meantime, Skolkovo innovators continue to chuckle quietly into a fist (not to be seen) over the results of their “research” and our reaction, we should take care of the real problem of what kind of specialists the Russian market really needs, and even now.

What is called, having walked on the sites placing offers from employers, announcements that relate to the needs of industrial enterprises and manufacturing companies for qualified engineering and technical personnel are easily detected. It is worth giving examples without the name of enterprises, so that the reader does not consider this as some kind of hidden advertising.

Primorsky Krai (average salary 27000 rubles).

Engineer for forest resources. Wages from 30000 rubles. Jobs more 2 months.
Electronic engineer. Wages from 37000 rubles. Jobs more than 1,5 months.

Voronezh region (average salary 19000 rubles).
Electrical Engineer. Wages from 32000 rubles. Jobs more than three months.
The engineer-adjuster of the compressor equipment. Salary 60000 rubles. Jobs around 2 weeks.
Technological engineer. Salary 40000 rubles. Jobs - a week.

Moscow (average salary 51000 rubles)
Design Engineer. Salary 57000 rubles. Jobs about a month.
Network Design Engineer. Wages from 60000 rubles. Jobs a little more than a week.
Engineer for external engineering networks. Salary - 80000 rubles. Jobs about a week.

Many examples from other regions of Russia can be cited, and everywhere the interest of employers in qualified engineering personnel will manifest itself. How will manifest itself and the fact that responses to many proposals of employers, and with wages higher than the average for the region, for a long time will not find the answer.

We contact the employer who placed the vacancy on the hiring of an electrical engineer. In a city with a million people, such a vacancy has been “hanging” for more than three months. The employer, who introduced himself as Mikhail, to the question why the company he heads for so long cannot fill the vacancy, answers as follows:

Of course, there are responses, but only the qualifications level of most applicants are not just low, but, I will say this: extremely low. If a young man comes in who has a diploma of graduation from a technical college, you already understand during the interview: by definition, this will not work for us. It comes to the fact that these "electrical engineers" do not know what and with the help of what the current strength is measured ... What projects are there? But they have fours with fives in diplomas ...


Applicants are no longer satisfied with the proposed salary, they say that for such money today you can work in a private office or in an office flush to play. We are changing it (salary - author's note) for the third time, giving ads to sites, but, unfortunately, we can’t afford more. Although, I think that if a person showed himself well over time, we would raise his salary as much as possible.


So, domestic enterprises today are experiencing an acute shortage of personnel in relation to qualified engineering workers. What is the reason? The reason is not always in modest pay. On wages in 40, 60 or 80 thousand rubles, most Russians still have to dream. The fact is that the preparation of the young replenishment of the engineering staff is simply failed. The educational bias towards humanitarian (or rather, pseudo-humanitarian) education is such that it has already become a real threat to the Russian economy. Lawyers and sales managers, you know, have not learned how to design spaceships and create new communication systems ...

If an enterprise cannot fill an engineering vacancy within three months, doesn’t it affect its productivity, quality of work and profit level? And if it beats on a single enterprise, then, ultimately, it beats on the state's competitiveness in the production sector.

Here, after all, this is how it turns out: if there are not enough janitors and painters, tilers and plumbers, then our state men decided that this niche should be filled with migrant workers. And if not enough engineers? It was thought that here, too, the technical trained residents of the Dushanbe, Osh or Kokand neighborhoods would solve our internal problems. But it turned out that in the vicinity of these and other cities that supply cheap labor to Russia, the engineers are also somehow not particularly thick ... Or, maybe, hope for an influx of technically savvy Chinese to our enterprises. They will allow Russia to make technical megaprojects ... Yes, only such gentlemen are in demand in their countries, that's what's the matter ... You can invite Germans or Dutchs — well, like in times of Peter the Great or as in our present football ... But only now we have not the time of Peter the Great, and the production sphere with football has little in common.

It turns out that either we will have to reanimate our own system of high-quality engineering personnel training, or finally forget that Russia can be a country with a competitive production - we will buy everything abroad from the needles to spacecraft for revenues from selling pumped oil? .. For now , unfortunately, the second scenario is implemented in full swing.

      "- drive, drive, drive! With kicks. And spitting."

      Russian Patent No. 2083239 "Method for symptomatic treatment of diseases."
      Patent description

      The author proposes to carry out treatment with an aspen stick, "which is brought to the patient's body with its lower end corresponding to the lower part of the tree, making successive smooth translational movements of the stick from top to bottom and in the opposite direction." This patent even specifies the size of the sticks: "The diameter of the sticks is usually 5-30 mm, and the length is 100-200 mm. The approximate service life of one aspen stick is 20-40 treatment sessions, which on average last within 5-30 minutes. Approximate the volume of work with one stick is 10-20 hours. The shelf life of properly prepared sticks is not limited. " The wand is a serious diagnostic and treatment tool, therefore it is necessary to harvest it not when you want, but necessarily on the new moon. belay what wassat

If he is happily drinking whiskey where the thread is in the Dominican Republic, then send him a biography of Trotsky and an ice ax. At first, of course, everyone will be ignored, but as soon as such owners start to visit and "climbers" add to the ice ax, the capital will return.

Spawn then spawn, but at the exit - d.u.r.a.k on a fool

          - In real life, both are right.
          Why?
          1.Yes that girl actually needs to look for her job far beyond the Moscow Ring Road, I'm afraid that somewhere even in Kazakhstan in the vicinity of Baikonur. Well, she was not looking there, but specifically looking in Moscow, for what she wanted in Moscow, where rocket engines are not produced and will never be produced, because financial bubbles are much more profitable to produce, believe me. Not much is spent on R&D. In the USA we hate, such a specialist for some reason does not look for work in Wall Street, but goes straight to Florida, specifically to Cape Canaveral, and does not consider this to be DEMANDING. Strange, don’t you? Here I am about the same.
          2. The proposed salaries are no longer satisfied with the applicants, they say that for that kind of money today you can work in a private carriage or play a play in the office. We are changing it (salary - approx. Author) for the third time - well, so, for thirty years we engineers were humiliated with a salary of 120 rubles, while the "hegemon" in an alcoholic T-shirt, knowing only how to drive a lathe back and forth, chopped all 250 WITHOUT TENSION, and this question was dragged out before that, that by inertia the population is already breaking into economists-lawyers. By the way, the competition for Plekhanovka and the Faculty of Law of Moscow State University, already in the years of stagnation, was ten times higher than the competition for the same Baumanka. So my generation did not want to be humiliated by the salary of 120 rubles as an engineer! The society is rather big, the inertia is great. What did the fathers-leaders think when they created such economic conditions for engineers? Now what? Now what? AND READ THE EAL RIVER - how many times did Proshka Gromov unfasten his engineer Tarasov? Now, multiply by two and you get a normal figure for which you can attract an engineer. So don’t screw up, but take out your wallets and reimburse the engineers for years of humiliation.
          3. The problem of the discrepancy between the level of training and the level of requirements for the employer also exists. The solution is simple - you need universities, their viability and, in general, the right to life to tie on the ability to meet the needs of the employer, and somehow motivate the employer not to look for a specialist in the labor market for free like "maybe there will be!", But to buy yourself a university, or call SHEFT (remember there was such a form of cooperation between the employer and the university?) over a specialized university and train specialists there. The details should be known to specialists, not me. All this is very easy to solve.

          P.S. For the emotions in paragraph 2, I apologize - the engineer himself and with irritation recall how I only had enough of 120 rubles to those 50 rubles. Was it a pity?

            It is very correctly noticed, especially with a university education. Now it is in many ways very far from modern production and design. It is necessary to scratch the companies-consumers of specialists, work with universities, invest money in the development of training programs and demand the appropriate quality of specialists for this.

            Yes, and here in the next news about the Space X company they say, so they are around the world ready to look for workers. What is not a girl’s employer?
            If we say it on a global scale, and local realities, of course, everything on state financing (I'm talking about rocket science) in our country is gradually turning into a swamp to the feeding trough, I don’t know why we have such a mentality. So I gladly believe that she couldn’t find work in the immediate vicinity of the Moscow regions.

            I'm an engineer too. Former. The "last straw" that prompted me to leave was the next trend. With a planned economy, we (in the sense of an office in which I had grown in 4 years from an ordinary engineer with a salary of 110 to a leading designer, 180) knew at least a year in advance what we would do. Then Mishan (cyka, I hate it !!!) introduced cost accounting, and somehow it turned out that we only learned the tasks by the beginning of the quarter. Then a couple of weeks after the start, and these couple of weeks pears were hanging around, even the girls who, it would seem, have nothing. When we got to the month, I unobtrusively began to find out in similar offices, as they have with projects, and whether people are needed. It turned out that it looks like they are not needed. That's when I started using this unoccupied month to learn English. I managed to dump on time. From the letters of friends-relatives (also mainly engineers) I learned that in the dashing 90s they survived as best they could, they did whatever they could, but mostly not in their specialty. But if you do not work in your specialty, your qualifications are lost, although they say that you cannot drink skill. And, looking at this, the young and talented either went to study to become lawyers-economists, or left. The link between generations was broken. I had a lot of things to pass on to young beginners, but went nowhere. It's a pity...

              There is such a term - the economic climate. So, he, this climate is such that production, where engineering personnel are involved, practically does not bring profit. Buy and sell at times more profitable, it turns out that a cunning citizen from the Caucasus who can hardly speak Russian, has the opportunity, by virtue of his own, gone .. sorry for the commercial vein, ride a lehus. A real specialist technician darn his pockets and often the employer is not to blame. Our company has two main divisions, one repair, with large areas, machine tools, locksmiths, welders, machine tools, a technologist (this feel ) a bunch of supplies, etc. The second store with spare parts, fluids, spare parts and a staff of 3 people. Units make almost the same turnover, you understand the costs are not comparable request Here is such a parsley, with this economic menopause climate crying In fact, the entire production unit is only necessary to ensure sales to the store, in itself it is unprofitable ...

      I myself work as a leading design engineer in Kazakhstan, my son went to study as a technologist-technologist (he is 16), and then he will go to an engineer. The situation in Kazakhstan is about the same, only we have lower average salaries, approximately like in Voronezh. Engineers are paid at about average salary. I work part time for two more companies, I am fighting off the rest as I can, I sometimes need to sleep, I forgot when I read the art book for the last time (I used to read fiction all the time), on the computer from morning to night. Education for engineers is completely free, our son receives her scholarship in college, and the boys do not aspire to engineering work, they ruined the prestige with a salary of 140 r. so it’s still below the baseboard.

        Engineers are paid at about average salary.

        - On the whole, I agree, but there is an amendment - the engineer himself, I travel across Kazakhstan, the worker is still paid significantly more to a worker with a pronounced technical specialty than to a specialist in a different direction. If we compare the salaries of the main specialists (that is, not reaching a step to the head of the department), then the specialist is IT specialist, engineer (any engineering specialty of your choice — a builder, heating engineer, power engineer, mechanic, constructor, miner and others) gets on average 200-250 thousand tenge (40-50 thousand rubles), while specialists of the same level of other (non-technical) areas receive about 150 thousand tenge (30 thousand rubles) or less. Perhaps for you the difference of 50-100 thousand tenge is insignificant, but it still is. I would like to emphasize that although this difference exists, at the same time it is NOT SUFFICIENT to provoke corresponding changes in the labor market. The difference should not be percent, but many times MORE! Why?
        Yes, if only because in a technical university to study at times is more difficult. A strengthened base of mathematics, physics, chemistry, then a tracing sheet, sopromat, the theory of machines and mechanisms, probability theory, computer science and other nasty things that you’ll break your head about.

            let me disagree. It so happened that I have to familiarize myself with the theory of finance, I practically have a financial education, there is only no "crust". Absolutely nothing complicated at all! Having more or less mathematical training (and an engineer without this training is not an engineer), understanding the principles of annuity and interest accrual according to this principle is not at all a question. And in general - in finance there are many, many scary swear words (terms) such as "emission", "inflation", "goodwill", well, you think - this is a science, probably, I will not master, because there are so many scary words! You start, you master - and EVIL! These primitives, who only know this, have been attending college for four years to learn this primitive nonsense, - they also managed to take power on the planet - Mikhail posted this about this!

      And nobody goes to study as engineers!


      As I already wrote, I repeat once again, my daughter graduated from 9th grade this year, at the school parents' meeting after graduation, the director said approximately the following, no one in the senior grades will be tsatskats, help and dosvidos, you better go to technical schools and vocational schools. Communicated with other parents in all schools the same thing. At first I got a little excited, I thought, why not? Better to get a specialty than pay for a dubious education for 5 years. I really wanted to go to "technical", but stopped at "honey", which in principle is also not bad, my wife is also a doctor, in general, they submitted three "honey", only one passed, a competition, eprst, 3 people in place. So this is why, I am opposed to the current education reform, because in schools they do not even teach, but rather teach subjects, therefore the level of education is very mediocre. They give birth to dropouts, I am with my Soviet secondary and military vocational school, I can give some with a higher head start and this is not because I am so smart lol , but they were just "taught". The picture is about the following 70% of students are sent voluntarily and compulsorily to receive specialized specialties, I think that this is not bad at all.

            - The whole trouble is that there are technical specialties in which Ukrainians have a monopoly. For example, commissioning of pumping stations on gas transmission systems.
            Or here is such a let not technical, but rather complicated specialty - reburial of cemeteries. When a hydroelectric power station is being built, a cemetery may appear in the territory prepared for flooding. If you can’t bear it, you will get a highly toxic lake. And the transfer is associated with difficulties. And here - Ukrainians hold a monopoly.
            Of course, we will find a way out - we will raise payments to the Ukrainians so that they want to move to Kazakhstan (or Russia, because the Russians will have to relocate all Motor Sich and Antonov to Russia, possibly the Malyshev plant, because in Ukraine these enterprises do not "shine"), we will arrange the training of the necessary specialties in universities.

      Engineering hunger is created artificially, underreporting.

      The inability to pay a decent salary to a design engineer is already inherent in the very method of modern distribution of work. Everything goes through a competition, the main criterion (not counting the preliminary agreement) of victory in which is the minimum price. And since so many small firms consisting of several people have now divorced, they a priori, having minimal overhead costs and a reduced level of responsibility for the work done, knock down the price to disgrace low. That is, a normal large enterprise either refuses to participate in the competition. or receives an order at a very low price, which is decisive in the distribution of wages.

That is, as when hiring the same engineer. If he has a diploma and work experience, then they begin to speak with him for money. Well, if these small firms make the project cheaper for the customer, better and faster than a large project office, then what's wrong with that? And if one company designs and builds, then wait for the project to become unreasonably more expensive because the head of the company will put pressure on his designers so that the project cost is greater.

Come to the SRO, bring money and a list of specialists. And you are given permission.

The contractor himself develops only detailed drawings of building structures. The contractor is often controlled not only by the developer and customer, but also by an independent company, if the customer does not have its own specialists. I work at an engineering plant, but I work part-time at a construction company. Twice the customer was our factory (more precisely, the head office), the contractor is the company in which I work part time (I did the detailing for them), and the developer is the partner company of the customer.

      At construction sites in Russia, there is still the Soviet method of remunerating engineers. The salaries of workers (not migrant workers) are higher than those of line engineers. That is, the worker earns 35000-40000 rubles, the foreman - 25000-30000. Moreover, this is a salary. And work on the weekend is often not paid.

    Everything according to the plan of the liberals: the collapse of the Russian economy. Capitalism. Colonial (puppet) raw-material country. You are not supposed to have your own industry. Everything is collapsed almost to the ground. Here's the "base", damn it, they got a strong one - they can't finish it yet!

    Liberal laws and "democracy" allow, while not bad enough, to trade in theft, speculative trade, bribery (flourishing bureaucracy), usury ...

    The worst thing is that people realized that you can NOT work - and live well!
    Try to convince them! ... Although, yes, everyone works! Only now (according to the latest data) the country's GDP is ONLY state-owned enterprises! What are the others doing?

    If a young man comes who has a diploma of graduating from a technical university, then you already understand at the interview: this, by definition, will not work for us.
    Here is a double edged sword. The young man will go through a couple of such interviews and spit on his profession. Will go where they take it. And the employer can understand why he is an inexperienced worker. About the level of education of current students, I can safely say even the majority, this is generally a separate song. I don’t even want to raise this topic. But the government does not know how to deal with it. Only in a tragic pathos throw their hands to the sky and reduce inefficient universities. Well, they transferred my wife (studying in absentia) to another university. With the level of her education, nothing has changed.

      Previously, high school students and vocational school students underwent practical training, now there is nowhere to go through it - private enterprises do not need this hassle, but they need, for some reason, super-duper professionals, but on the student's salary (yes, often indicated in the ad the salary does not correspond to the real one). Pupils of specialists are also often taken not for training, but for use as auxiliary workers (this is cheaper), and after 3-4 months. are fired, often "forgetting" to pay for the work.

      What is strange is to take the same graduate to a job position and give him to grow as a result, to an engineer, if he already has the ability, for some reason employers do not want to. Yes, often employers do not consider it necessary to have a competent engineer - after all, an intelligent worker himself will figure out how to do it, he will do it himself, and all for one salary.
      By the way, at my work (past), I never got a project in my hands that corresponded to the guest, or even just corresponded to the real situation at the facility, although the projects were prepared by an engineer who was educated in the USSR and the employer for some reason did not accuse him of unprofessionalism.

        There is truth in these words. Now there are calculation programs. Those. no need to cram strength materials, but you need to learn to press the buttons. What a design bureau of 10 people did before (and this is mainly drawing drawings) is now drawn by a computer and 1 person. If I study engineering for 5 years at a university does not mean that I will be smarter than automated calculation systems. To write these programs, of course, you need knowledge of the strength of materials. But engineers "writers" are needed few. And then robotic production will generally throw the majority onto the street, just as manufactories have ruined artisans.

        Why at school learn to write letters in a notebook? Handwriting on the keyboard no longer matters. Why learn to draw blueprints if you sent a file to the CNC and the thing is in the hat? In the future, you can just say and the robot will do everything. Well then, you do not need to read or write.

          The lack of engineering thinking and the notion of "how it should be" cannot be replaced by the ability to press buttons.

But there are works that he entrusts to less experienced ones, i.e. routine. Now this routine is successfully done by the computer. What is the percentage of the main compared to ordinary engineers?

They created a GOST, a good GOST, I won’t say anything, the shoe is comfortable, the skin is good, all the chiki-bunches.

    Specialists with experience in a narrow specialization are paid a lot. In essence, this is a veiled theft of technology. One company invests money in a young specialist, makes him a narrow professional. Other organizations do not want to do this. They entice the necessary specialist with extra 5 ... 10 tr. per month The order is executed - he is fired. "Effective" managers know how to count money.

    Our country is now overflowing with managers and lawyers - half-educated ... There are a lot of them, BUT !!! Look in the same Moscow - according to the Internet in it - an acute shortage of EXPLANATORY managers!
    If it used to be prestigious in the USSR to be an engineer, now ... It’s something like attitude to the army: he quit the service, well done, he got on the call - sucker. It is absolutely not prestigious to be an engineer in our time. I’ll also add about the level and quality of teaching in our prolific universities - disgusting! I remember the time when I studied at the university (1973-1977): the teachers themselves, if they saw that someone was misunderstanding something, after classes remained and explained, hammered ... And no one could think about what was needed pay money for it ... And now - to give a minimum of knowledge - to take a maximum of money - these are the foundations of modern education.
    We are talking about the fact that the engineering education system itself has been destroyed ... But it is necessary to recall the previously existing VTUZ plants, that is, in large-scale industries, there were vocational schools, technical schools, universities, and the bulk of the students were from among the employees of this enterprise. Here combined obtaining both theoretical knowledge and practical skills. Accordingly, it is necessary to think over a competent policy of attracting young people to study in engineering profiles and working specialties, and there is nothing to blame that there is no money. Let the GDP strain our moneybags, let Roma refrain from building and buying a new superyacht, then we can not list. Create a Fund for the implementation of this program, voluntarily-forcibly fill it with contributions (who still remembers how we donated money to the struggle for the release of Angela Davis and any other muin). The only question is: do not fund ... is this fund?
    With a sound, sober-minded approach, it is not too late to revive our engineering. Once again, they build rockets and they, albeit shitty, but fly, and ships float, planes fly too - which means that the engineering skeleton is not yet destroyed to the ground, and there is still someone to pass on their knowledge to young people. There would be a desire, and the way out of this situation is still possible.

    In retail chains, work "not by hand" does not require any qualifications, only a computer at the user level, an average-suspended language and the ability to drive a car (not always). But how does capitalism work? "A dollar to the one who invented it. Ten to the one who made it. A thousand to the one who sold it!" Therefore, the income (not earnings, this is not work) of salespeople is very large. Such is the system - the contribution to the economy is vanishingly small, the income is huge. The manufacturer is pounding against the wall, people are learning, mastering unique skills ... which make it hard to make ends meet. Earlier...
    Once the situation in the economy was largely determined by the manufacturer. Then vertical corporations were created, they themselves produced, they themselves traded, distributing income so that production could be at a high level. As a matter of fact, this is exactly how mankind turned NTR - vertical corporations have invested enormous engineering resources in the modern world and we now have returns. But...
    All this provision did not suit the vile thief! The financiers, the kings of cut paper and computer zeros, wanted to reign, that is, to rob, and with impunity, and as much as you want. The manufacturers were quickly wrecked, because those (suckers!) Were burdened in the struggle by extremely expensive production. But thieves, well, that is, financiers, are not burdened by anything, they lose nothing but the zeros and are not really concerned about anything except the presence of a pen. And the vile thieves began to determine the situation in the economy.
    Producers are their natural enemies, and, unlike thieves, they have the resources that society really needs. The financier cannot offer anything real; he can be replaced at any time with another one of the same kind. Who cares who will finance the work, Uberbank or Ukralbank, there is no difference. And try to replace Uralvagonzavod with something! You will sweat ... Therefore, the financiers are leading a tough campaign against them. Against us, that is, they harm everyone. "Education" programs, attacks on countries (entire countries!) Trying to teach people the real things, rabid propaganda of theft as a "successful way of life" ... news portals use ... raiders as an economic observer. That is, bandits, even by the standards of a financial thief. The people who are taken away from the company's manufacturers are cut into pieces and sold.

    I am a shipbuilding engineer working overseas (mainly India). Z.P. on average 150 thousand rubles ("on average" - due to fluctuations in the dollar exchange rate). Will I work in Vladivostok, for example, for 50 thousand a month? And the salary is not the most important thing, the working conditions are such that words cannot be found. Changing something is simply not realistic, nepotism, theft. Seeing all this disgrace, the youth flees. As a result, their children will not even try themselves in this area.
    At first I cheated, then spat on everything, lucky, found this job. I’ve been working in a large office for 12 years, experience - a bag and a small cart, worked on docks almost all over the world, even built an aircraft carrier. I tried to settle in St. Petersburg that you ... uncle who needs you here, will you begin to change the existing system, increase efficiency, God forbid, but my dad will retire? Go to your am (this is what the Indians call themselves), we still need a stupid little brother to attach a place to my daddy, we will call this a dynasty.
    And our young specialists, having studied for five years, go to the emergency commissioners, if it is lucky.

    On paper, they only write such a salary. I am an electronic engineer of the 2nd category, namely an electronic engineer, not an electronic engineer, as it is written in the ETKS-unified tariff-qualification reference book, in the recent past I worked in the energy sector, the salary for this position was 15 tr, but the loader was from 20, so who is more profitable to work in our country? Having along the way the specialty of instrumentation and automation engineer, low-voltage systems engineer and 4 group on electrical safety, work with a salary of more than 30 tr I can’t find it in the Krasnodar Territory (a lot of resumes are hanging on the network), and I have more than 15 years of work experience, so how can you tell me, they consider average income? Director 1 million rubles-engineer 15 tr., We take the proportion = more than 500 tr. From here, so I find myself lying that I earn so little?

    All the reasons are indicated in the comments, it is very difficult to find and add something. Engineers on the ground understand why this is the case. But I will add my thoughts: ANY UNIVERSITY will not be able to prepare a "competent" engineer. It was only the vocational school that taught the children to "competently" perform their function. The university should provide the foundation of the sciences that surround the specifics of a given engineer, and most importantly, teach him to think. Only a good baggage of fundamental knowledge allows a real engineer to feel confident in any environment and any production, quickly learn new requirements for himself, i.e. just independently master new areas of activity. Those. the meaning of what was said is this: diploma of engineer, mechanic of ship power plants. Scope of work (briefly): designer for nuclear reactors, designer lifting tr. mech., mech.processing technologist, etc. Now I design cold working stamps. It's simple - take books and teach.

          - you are unfair. It’s just that your posts are already quite down, the reader just doesn’t get to them. In addition to being an engineer, I also know how to trade in the market laughing And what is the first wisdom in trading in the market? - Do not take the trading place away from human flows, even if cheap, even if almost for free! laughing Do not sell anything! And do not spare money for a trading place right at the intersection of two, and even better several human traffic. Here, too - you are very far away, in the sense - completely below, many have not read you already.

          A good engineer cannot be narrow-minded if he has a really good education and a really good base from natural disciplines - "mastering a subcontractor" for such an engineer is NOT a QUESTION.

    Labor productivity undoubtedly depends on the technological perfection of production processes. But the problem is that investors do not want to invest in mechanization. And with technologists and designers developing and improving technological processes, it is becoming more and more complicated. Young people are sensible and smart. However, technical education is knowledge-intensive and less and less willing to work as engineers for a small salary. And even when the salary becomes interesting, the guys still don’t want to run around the dirty workshops at the welding posts. The worst thing is that the heads of enterprises put more and more on foreigners. I worked for one very famous company manufacturing a system for cables made of metal and plastic. If a foreigner (engineer) personally doesn’t like who is kicked out right away even though the guys have diplomas and dissertations, the foreigners themselves have something to learn from us.

In addition to the primitive extraction and export of minerals, no production is either industrial or agricultural in Russia, the West NEEDS, and therefore education should be primitive, and the training of engineering personnel is generally out of the question, what are they for if there is no industry! So the implementation of the Western scenario is the sunset of Russia! And so that this scenario does not materialize, Russia needs to reanimate its system of coordination, and in it, of course, one of the main tasks will be the restoration of industry and the training of domestic personnel for it, but without the participation of liberals!

    People now regard higher education simply as prestige, and only a few are going to work in their specialty. I pass by a local cold storage plant the other day, a message board:
    "Movers are required, ages 25 to 40, higher education is required."
    Apparently, without higher education, she won’t understand how to approach, what to undertake, where to carry.

And no matter how many times I look at vacancy announcements, I see everywhere that only sellers, loaders, managers, drivers are needed ... But not engineers. In the best case, you can stumble upon an advertisement for a vacancy of a designer of building facades or something. And that is rare. Where are the enterprises? They are closing one after another.

    The university graduates approximately 80-100 engineers of various profiles per year, but they are not visible at the factories... they don’t hire them... their places are occupied

    Who forced you to become an engineer if you knew that factories value workers? Did your mother send you to university? So that everything is like with people, the boy received a higher education? or friends invited you for company, because there’s nothing to do with studying at that university?
    A profession or specialty must be chosen carefully. If you went to university, then for a specialty that will be in demand. Do the math. This time.
    Two. A diploma means nothing without experience. This means that you should go to work for at least 10 thousand, as long as you have experience. In Canada they won’t hire you if you don’t have Canadian experience, and emigrants work for six months or a year for free (!) for rubbish experience.
    Three. You must constantly work on yourself, improve your skills and your value in the labor market. Learn in. language It doesn't matter if you need it, but it's a plus for your resume.
    Four. You must be mobile in life. Be ready to work anywhere on the planet, especially in our country. There is nothing wrong. We are used to sitting on our ass all our lives in one city, even if we haven’t been paid for years. I recently met an Italian guy in Nakhodka, he installed a line there at a shipyard plant. He graduated from the Polytechnic University of Milan, works in Russia, in the Far East. And he doesn’t give a damn.

    It would be interesting to understand that some people do not understand or do not want to see, the very system of current values ​​is the reason for everything that We are forced to contemplate!!!
    Population mobility - well, this is one of my favorite songs, but in essence, who or what pointed out to those in power today the undeniable truth of this fetish? Excuse me, why should a native resident have to go God knows where in search of a job? Surely many, if not the majority, when receiving a specialty, imagined where (locality) and who they were going to work with, but they are told they need to change, they need to be mobile, but they also forget to indicate what is desirable - If only they were dumb and liking their masters, that’s how unlucky we are with our people!!! Well, he’s not like that!!! Now they are trying, with difficulty, to raise (should read raise and train) (in very quotation marks) a person of a new formation, the same Bronstein labels and other bastards have tried more than once, Did it work out? Yes, for some period the creatures felt like masters, and then? don't remember? Do you want to have a repeat of what you have learned?
    There is a shortage of qualified personnel, I wonder if we add up all the required personnel, taking into account all the nuances (Qualification + experience), and on the other hand the demand (supposedly demand), there is a suspicion that the numbers will be incompatible - the need for the team may now turn out to be greater than before the late USSR, and this is with the current quantity of products, quality of education, and so on. By the way, are there still many mentors left at enterprises, and are enterprises ready to take on a person with retraining or even train a specialist from scratch?
    I’ll keep silent about the problem with “my” managers and so on, so as not to write with obscenities.

    As a person who has experienced all the “delights” of our “wild capitalism” first hand, I can explain the situation. He worked in an office - a city provider, a monopolist. At that time, the general director had a diploma of secondary education as an agronomist from a local agricultural technical school and received about 90 thousand a month. A friend, a diesel engineer with honors, a rare graduate with knowledge, and not just a “crust”, works for 17 thousand. He doesn’t want to become a telephone salesman, although he could earn 30. And he has no prospects for either career growth or salary.
    Nowadays, getting a secondary technical education (I graduated from a technical school myself) makes no sense at all, it is completely devalued.
    But the problem is completely solvable. It is necessary to raise the status of engineers. A graduate now cannot find a job in his profession for the only reason - “you have no experience, go away!” And so it is everywhere. Previously, the STATE was interested in specialists, but now everyone “swims out” as best they can. Young specialists were given jobs, given an apartment - just to work with their heads...

    Author. What is this article about?
    This is a typical point of view when lower management explains to superiors why they are not succeeding. When both of them, in fact, are soaring in the clouds and doing everything to keep their distance from the real solution to problems and problems as such..

    I worked in the space industry for a long time (OKB Fakel, NIIFI). All this left a wild feeling of emptyness, disrespect for the level of qualifications, the costs incurred by specialists striving to maintain a high level of qualifications.
    If the 80s are remembered for groupism, clanism, local kings,
    now - the General is a “son” who determines the technical ideology of the Deputy General for Science - a criminal madman, and in financial flows - one dregs ...
    Anyone who has tried to achieve and achieved high technical results in projects knows that success depends 40% on the initial extended formulation of the problem.
    And who will set the task - “sons”?.. thieves?.. madmen?...
    And from this it follows - “we need competent performing engineers, but they are not there..”

    Another important point is that everyone believes that it is desirable to see training for young people...
    More specifically and in rough form - the technical level and the very motivation of 80-95% of specialists are sufficient to only “hold the candle” for specialists of a higher level in one form or another. If these people are useful for me, for example, I can train them and put them on the map, and then maintain their qualification level..
    But!.. when you spend a long time explaining to a stupid young talent - a future candidate of sciences - how a two-stage amplifier works, and then he becomes your boss (with a salary 3.7 times more than yours) - you understand that you need to stop with altruism..
    So that - there are no freebies anymore...

    In general, the entire chain of “cultivating” engineers has been broken. While a person has not decided on the choice of profession, he is studying at school, the main thing is to interest him. For this purpose, a lot was done in the USSR: technical creativity sections, programs about technology “You Can Do It,” “Obvious-Incredible,” etc. , a bunch of magazines developing interest in technology. And most importantly, society was proud of its achievements in technology, and they were considerable: in aviation and astronautics (which is not a copy, it is a masterpiece) An-22, Mi-6, V-12, "weaving", the flight of the reusable Buran spacecraft in fully automatic regime, there were also many achievements in shipbuilding and mechanical engineering. Everyone understood that such achievements would hardly have been achievable without scientists, a strong engineering school and skilled workers. The prestige of an engineer and a highly qualified worker was quite high, especially in the defense industry. In the USSR, it was precisely the creative person who was brought up; the entire education system was aimed at this; it was systematic and academic. Unfortunately, they did not take into account the fact that not everyone wants to create; some people just want to use what others have come up with. In my opinion, such people played an important role in the collapse of the USSR. They were not happy with this society, with its shortage of goods and empty shelves. In this regard, the West, with its abundance, seemed much more attractive. It was necessary to create outlets for such people, and not to neglect their interests. I went a little away from the topic... But not much.
    Conclusion: we need to raise the prestige of engineering professions, their demand, and this is not just about salary. All this is impossible without developing your own production in Russia; its growth will make this profession in demand.

    A very interesting and revealing “engineering famine” was organized in the army.
    Almost since 2000, we have stopped training senior engineering and technical personnel. And the equipment began to enter the troops with very complex equipment; for every minor malfunction, specialists from enterprises began to be called. But the paradox is that these enterprises employ former military engineers who have retired.
    As a result, military-technical policy is organized by people who cannot even screw in a light bulb in the hallway. And now they want to make it even cooler, outsource the entire technical support system to civilian enterprises! Those. The commander's logistics and technical support plan will include enterprise contracts.

    The author did not delve deeply into the life of the regions. And he doesn't even think shit.
    1. Strictly speaking, employers themselves often do not know who they want to see. Often they need a "one-man orchestra"

    Primorsky Krai
    Timber resources engineer. - There is no such profession. :):):):):):

    Voronezh region
    Compressor equipment adjustment engineer. - Actually, take a look at the occupational directory. Laugh. But you won’t find a Service Engineer in the list of professions.
    Technological engineer. - Technologies are different. There are mechanical engineering, there is food, there is forestry, there is welding, and so on.. Accordingly, the salaries are different

    Moscow
    Design engineer. - Designers are different. Some people assemble airplanes and steam locomotives on a computer, others assemble furniture

    Our unfortunate employers sometimes come up with such professions and specialties that you just want to cry.

    2. The author did not take into account a small nuance - the distribution of people in Russia.
    Let's say Primorsky Krai. Need an electronics engineer. Where is the nearest university that trains them? If a diligent team needs an electrical engineer, it’s a Shift (which means crap housing and a very small salary, and a medical commission). If this is a small town of 10 thousand inhabitants: then the enterprise should be interested in personnel, invite, provide housing, groom and cherish. What are they doing? They just stupidly put up an advertisement: and wait... When will someone take the bait? Dibilism.
