YATEK: at the "CASE-IN" championship, we are looking for industry youth with "burning" eyes

PJSC YATEK is a strategic partner of the Reliable Change Foundation and its flagship project, the International Engineering Championship CASE-IN. One of Russia's leading gas producing and fuel companies is ready to open up great horizons for representatives of industry youth and expects breakthrough solutions from them.

As part of the project included in the presidential platform "Russia is a land of opportunity", the company's leading specialists participate in the preparation of case solutions for students, and then evaluate the projects of young people.  The best of the best receive not only diplomas and preferential conditions for admission to master's and postgraduate studies at partner universities of the championship, but also invaluable practical experience: winners and prize–winners undergo internships and internships at YATEK with the possibility of further employment.

So, in November of this year, after the triumph of the main CASE-IN season, students from St. Petersburg Mining University completed an internship at the Srednevilyuyskoye gas condensate field, who became champions in the Oil and Gas business as part of the Ogteam team.

The company pays special attention to attracting young qualified specialists. According to Elena Papkova, Head of the YATEK Personnel Training and Development Department, the organization of internships and internships is one of the possibilities for forming an external personnel reserve.: "PJSC YATEK admits about 20 students from 18 universities per year.  About 30% of students decide to stay at our company after internships. In general, young people need to practice as much as possible, because this way they gain invaluable knowledge and master professional competencies, and they can also declare themselves to an employer and join the staff in the near future."

The internship at YATEK is not just a study tour of the production. The company does not make any special distinctions between experienced specialists and untrained students. The CASE-IN champions were no exception, who from the very first days served as the DNG operator and participated in the detours of inter-field pipelines, facilitated the work on monitoring and adjusting the UKPG-2 modes, carried out minor equipment repairs and adjustments to the technological regime of the installation.

"The program was designed in such a way that during the internship period we were able to cover the entire production cycle., - says the captain of the team Boris Seregin. –  In each department, we were treated with respect and involved in the work process whenever possible. The most valuable thing we will get as a result of the internship is experience. The idea of the mining process, obtained from books and various Internet resources, cannot be compared with what I saw with my own eyes. We have once again made sure that we did not make a mistake in choosing a profession and after graduation we will definitely continue to work in this field."

High demands are placed on future specialists at YATEK, but at the same time they are ready to consider candidates with little work experience.

"The main thing is for students to have bright eyes and a desire to solve big problems. The company will continue to look for such motivated young people at the International Engineering Championship."CASE-IN"Ah, that means everyone has a chance to be among the lucky ones.", - says the representative of the company.

Ambitious young people will be able to get an opportunity to declare themselves to a large industry company very soon. After all, the jubilee X season of the prestigious project will start in February 2022.
