Among the top 5 companies to start a business career are also Sber, Yandex, T-Bank and VTB. IT specialists also choose Alfa Bank, T-Bank, Sber, VK and Avito to start their careers.

Among the top five to start a professional career in the field of “Technical Specialties” are Gazprom, Alfa-Bank, Yandex, T-Bank and Sber. In the pharmaceutical sector, the leading companies are BIOCAD, Geropharm and R-Pharm, in the oil and gas sector – Gazprom, Gazprom Neft and Lukoil, among the markets – Avito, Ozon and Wildberries.

The authors of the study noted that students’ preferences when choosing professions have changed. For the first time in four years, management has overtaken the IT sector and taken first place in popularity. The financial sector, previously included in the top three, has become less attractive and has fallen three positions.

In the IT field, backend developer has become by far the most popular profession among students. The study participants also named the positions of frontend developer, tester, and fullstack developer. “In marketing, most young people want to work in the roles of marketing manager, marketing analyst and public relations manager,” Changellenge said.

One of the top priorities in the first job for most students was a flexible schedule, which for the first time in five years surpassed the option of working remotely in popularity. More than 40% of respondents expressed their willingness to work in a hybrid format, with 60% preferring an option with two days of working from the office and 50% three.

Previously, experts interviewed by Vedomosti predicted that the wage growth of Russians in 2025 would be halved due to the cooling of the economy and rising costs for employers. They estimate that growth in real terms (adjusted for inflation) will slow to between 2% and 4%, compared to 8% in 2024.
