Articles / Education Vs. Work:
According to All-Russian Public Opinion Research Center, 67% of Russians approve combining work with study. The main pluses of the respondents are in the fact that the work during their studies can support themselves financially and provides an opportunity to gain experience. Monitoring of education, shows that university students work begins at the first year. 34,5% of freshmen and 73,9% of master students combine work and study.
After graduating the university, everybody hopes to receive a prestigious position and a decent pay for his/her knowledge at once, but not in the misty future. Communicating with employers, graduates hear the questions about the previous work experience. But if it does not exist, the chances of getting a desired position will reduce.
In the context of mass higher education it is very hard to find job in your field is virtually impossible. Here, for example, a student at the Faculty of Political Sciences of the second year. He actively looks for work, wants to apply his knowledge into practice. There is no suitable job, but he wants to earn money. As a result, our ambitious student goes to work as a courier. How useful is this experience for the young political scientist? It is a moot point. "I study at university of bankers, ministers and academics, and I work at McDonald's. Is it good practice? ".

Let’s assume that the lack of skills will be forgiven, and you begin to work in your field. After some time you can change your mind. But for employer it is also important that your decision is mature, and this company doesn’t have to look for a new man for your place. In this regard, the interviewer often interests: Do your parents know your decision to combine work and study?
Of course, student may regularly take tests and coursework: by the end of university at the university he knows a system of education very well and it is not problem for him to pass all exams without regular attendance at seminars. But the paradox is: Disciplines taught in the last courses remain for him unnoticed. But he can fill this gap at the work. The main thing is to choose priorities. And the choice is yours.
