[00:00:09] Work experience has started, for the next [00:00:12] five years, I definitely still see myself here, working [00:00:16] here is wonderful, well, I don't know, everyone says that in the region, in [00:00:19] the village it's hard, uninteresting, well, for me it [00:00:23] was interesting, 60,000 young [00:00:26] specialists arrived at their first workplaces. [00:00:30] 2,000, I believe that this is a very good salary, in [00:00:34] the future you can open categories, get new [00:00:36] specialties, go through training, how to not lose needed [00:00:40] personnel, help them stay, if [00:00:42] we sent a targeted specialist, agreed with him, [00:00:46] signed a contract, including with parents, he must [00:00:50] return and work on this land, there should [00:00:54] be no other options, preferences for those who gain [00:00:57] professional experience, this is... the connection between the manager and [00:01:01] local authorities regarding housing, regarding [00:01:04] some financial bonuses, social bonuses, when [00:01:08] life and work away from the city is a joy, [00:01:11] a big city is not for us, not for me and not for my husband, we love it [00:01:15] for being calm, quiet, so cozy, [00:01:18] and the house is a full cup, I like it, everything suits me, [00:01:22] the salary is decent, they gave us a new house, under the control of [00:01:25] the president, with the support of the state control [00:01:29] committee. Watch right [00:01:31] now on Belarus [00:01:33] 1. [00:01:38] For every small town, regional center or village to live and [00:01:41] develop, young people must stay there. They [00:01:45] are generators of ideas, quick conductors of new solutions in various [00:01:48] fields. Almost 60,000 young [00:01:51] specialists came to their first workplaces in [00:01:54] 2026 year. Mandatory [00:01:57] work for 2 years, if they studied on a budget form, up to [00:02:00] five, if it was a targeted direction, and every [00:02:04] fourth graduate this year is an engineer, well, [00:02:07] and 10% are specialists of the agricultural [00:02:10] sector, teachers and medical workers. We [00:02:13] traveled through the regions of Belarus and saw how young people apply their [00:02:17] knowledge in practice, whether they want to stay at [00:02:20] their first place of employment after working [00:02:24] off. [00:02:30] This is the Brest region, Alexandra graduated from the state [00:02:33] university in the regional center, now she works in this school [00:02:37] in the agro-town of Bolshie Matykaly, [00:02:39] as a pedagogical psychologist. She got there by distribution, [00:02:43] familiar places, small homeland, not far from Kamianetsky [00:02:47] district. I, yes, when I was a child, I often passed through these places [00:02:50] when we went to Brest, I always thought, what kind of school is this, I visually [00:02:54] just liked it, and then I thought that it's not far from home, [00:02:57] there's a... train, and buses run, and the city is [00:03:01] close, so the choice coincided. Alexandra [00:03:04] says she was warmly welcomed, a big plus was the school's activity [00:03:08] after regular lessons, because the young teacher is a participant [00:03:11] in the republican construction labor project of the All-Belarusian [00:03:15] Youth Construction Patriotic Center. She [00:03:18] also involves her students in interesting work, [00:03:21] the management supports this. Young [00:03:24] specialists strive, [00:03:27] purposeful. active, [00:03:30] cooperative, they try to take on any task, of course [00:03:33] it doesn't always work out, but [00:03:36] their desire is commendable, they are given various [00:03:39] support so that they feel [00:03:42] confident and move forward, the director helped [00:03:45] with documentation to solve the housing issue, in September [00:03:49] 2025 Alexandra came to her first workplace [00:03:53] already in January 2026 [00:03:57] she received the long-awaited [00:04:00] rental apartment, it was all sealed, like a gift, [00:04:04] I just unwrapped it, of course, this is a big room, I have a one-room [00:04:08] apartment, I immediately looked at the [00:04:12] distance, I already started thinking about how to come up with everything, I still have a lot [00:04:15] to do here, to add something, this is just for [00:04:19] the first time, with the help of my parents, a kitten [00:04:23] immediately appeared in the new house, Alexandra found him almost [00:04:27] near the entrance and invited him into her house. Now the commute to [00:04:30] work takes minimal time, which means more attention can [00:04:34] be given to improving her skills. This is all learning, it [00:04:38] makes me stronger. As a psychologist, it's also difficult, [00:04:41] it's working with children, and not only with children, it's working with [00:04:44] parents, but it's experience anyway, and [00:04:48] it's good that I have colleagues who help me with this. Here [00:04:51] we don't only work with children who are in special education [00:04:55] or with disabilities, we just work with children who need [00:04:59] support. Children who take exams are very [00:05:02] worried, children who are transitioning to fifth grade, it's also adaptation for them, [00:05:06] they need help, children who cannot [00:05:09] cope with their studies or their behavior, they need to talk it out somewhere. [00:05:42] they give a normal education there, I mean that if [00:05:45] we sent a targeted specialist, agreed with him, [00:05:48] signed a contract, including with parents, he must [00:05:52] return and work on this land, there should [00:05:56] be no other options. Mikhail Butruchuk is among those who [00:06:00] took a targeted referral, studied at the Brest Medical [00:06:03] College, and since August 2025 he [00:06:06] has been working as a doctor's assistant in this outpatient clinic in the agro-town [00:06:10] of Znamenka. When I took [00:06:12] the targeted referral, our targeted referral was for the entire region, so it was not yet clear [00:06:16] where you would go, this was already decided at the distribution at the end [00:06:19] of the training, I wanted to go to the district, closer to Brest, of course, [00:06:23] so it happened that I came here, the outpatient clinic was [00:06:27] renovated in about 2010, everything was completely [00:06:30] redone, the outpatient clinic is beautiful, here I learned [00:06:33] a little more than in college, naturally, information is always [00:06:37] updated, so you still have to learn. This outpatient [00:06:41] clinic serves 1,300 people, [00:06:45] 20 to 40 people come for appointments daily, in winter there are more sick people, doctors [00:06:48] see up to 60 patients. Galina quickly [00:06:51] finds their cards, she herself once came to these parts as a young [00:06:55] specialist. Once I came to visit, just to [00:06:59] Medno, it's nearby, there was a hospital, I went to work there, then [00:07:02] transferred here to Znamenka, then got married, built a house [00:07:06] and that's it, I settled here, I like it very much here. [00:07:10] electrocardiograph, devices for measuring [00:07:43] ocular and arterial pressure, stadiometer and [00:07:46] scales, I have worked for a year, [00:07:49] two more left, but I plan to stay, a good workplace, there is [00:07:53] housing right next door, [00:07:56] this new five-story building in [00:08:02] Shklov, including for young specialists who [00:08:06] work in agricultural organizations. Olga Brikin was born in these [00:08:09] places, studied in Minsk, returned to her homeland, here she [00:08:13] met her husband, now there are four of them, two daughters, [00:08:17] the elder ones, not without pride, show their room. They moved into [00:08:20] a new three-room rental apartment just [00:08:24] 2 months ago. A big city is not for [00:08:27] us, not for me and not for my husband, we love it to be calm, quiet, so [00:08:31] cozy. The employer should have also taken care [00:08:35] not only of a spacious apartment for a young family, but also of [00:08:39] furniture, because it's not easy to buy everything at once. [00:08:42] Three-room apartments and two-room apartments are fully [00:08:46] equipped, hallway, kitchens, bedrooms, double [00:08:50] beds, bedside tables, only in one-room apartments, we [00:08:54] have a one-room apartment, there is no bed there, but the entire set of furniture, [00:08:57] kitchen, gas stove, plumbing, [00:09:00] toilet, bath, rooms, everything is equipped, everything is ready for living, [00:09:04] so basically just move in, 20 apartments already have new residents, [00:09:08] the rest are waiting for their owners, next to the house there is an excellent children's [00:09:11] sports... playground, when [00:09:14] there are conditions to stay here, then of course it's easier to stay, because [00:09:18] many, well, they were born in Shklov, and now it's even [00:09:21] possible, my friend also lives here with her husband, in general, [00:09:24] everyone is very happy, because it's close, in place, so [00:09:27] to speak, my husband works at the same [00:09:30] agricultural enterprise as the chief engineer, in winter and spring [00:09:34] he is responsible for preparing equipment, and in summer, during [00:09:37] the busy harvesting season, he got behind the wheel of a combine, [00:09:40] an opportunity to earn extra money... [00:10:12] a young family in Shklov district in the agro-town of Gorodishche [00:10:16] has an entire rental house, with a garden nearby. The house, by the way, [00:10:20] electrically quickly heats the rooms to the desired [00:10:23] temperature. The Byka family are its first residents, [00:10:26] the little one has space to run around, the management of the agricultural organization [00:10:30] promises to help with the fence, Alexander also [00:10:33] graduated from the Goretsky Agricultural Academy with a targeted [00:10:36] referral, he is also responsible for the operational capability [00:10:39] of the equipment, everything suits him, the salary is decent, they gave him a new [00:10:43] house, the work-off was ending, the new director came, don't you want to stay, I said, [00:10:46] well, I want to rent an apartment, so [00:10:50] take the house immediately, they gave the house, so his wife is now [00:10:54] on maternity leave... she herself came from Bobruisk for [00:10:57] work-off, met her husband and stayed, they lived a little in [00:11:01] a dormitory, then rented an apartment, now they are settling into their [00:11:05] own space. Valeria is a veterinarian, she graduated from the Vitebsk [00:11:09] Veterinary Academy, she is already thinking about new [00:11:12] opportunities for her professional growth, [00:11:15] her management only supports her. I will probably [00:11:18] return not as a veterinarian, but as an obstetrician, [00:11:21] for now. I want to try obstetrics in Gorki. [00:11:25] I already talked to the first deputy about sending me for additional [00:11:28] courses, after all, I have an idea, but it's better to take courses [00:11:32] to understand this field [00:11:33] better. [00:11:40] 62 young specialists came to work this year in [00:11:44] the Senninsky district of Vitebsk region. Half of them joined [00:11:47] agricultural organizations, the rest - healthcare institutions, [00:11:50] forestry, education and housing and communal services. [00:11:53] strengthening young [00:12:55] specialists. Ekaterina is among those who received an apartment in [00:12:57] the new building just a few months ago. Now she is [00:13:01] moving to the district center and will live closer to [00:13:05] her work. For 2 years she worked in an outpatient clinic, not far [00:13:07] from here in Bogushevsk. Now, at the invitation of the hospital [00:13:11] management, she moved to Sino. This is actually one [00:13:14] medical structure. She conducts pediatric appointments as a pediatrician, [00:13:18] says she doesn't want to lose her skills, and also works [00:13:21] with diagnostic equipment. She completed training and gained [00:13:25] new skills. I don't regret it at all, I went to the distribution [00:13:28] with the thought that I knew I had a job, I knew [00:13:32] that I was welcome here, that I would be accepted here, [00:13:36] that I would have support here. Accordingly, [00:13:39] I did not doubt my own thoughts, [00:13:43] in principle. Therefore, I was [00:13:46] pleased with the fact that I stayed in the Sinem land, [00:13:50] and in principle I plan to continue working. [00:13:53] The chief doctor of the hospital herself, as [00:14:25] for the amount of work, our guarantees [00:14:28] allow them to further develop and truly enjoy [00:14:31] their first workplace, so that [00:14:35] they love medicine and continue to work in [00:14:39] medicine. Daria's great-grandmother once worked [00:14:42] as a dentist in this hospital. Daria studied in Orsha, by the way, and after [00:14:46] that came back to her native places. Her parents live in the nearby village, [00:14:49] she says she never wanted to live in a big city, it's cozier here, and [00:14:53] the hospital management immediately met her halfway, if I [00:14:57] drove from the village here, then I would be an hour late [00:15:00] approximately, I immediately went to the HR department during my last pre-diploma [00:15:04] internship, I don't have housing here, I need somewhere to live, because I come [00:15:07] to work, and if I drive from the village, I will be [00:15:11] late, can this be done, or let's [00:15:14] find a way for me to live here, so they [00:15:17] gave me an apartment immediately on the very first [00:15:21] days I came here for official work, as I got a job [00:15:24] as... they gave me an apartment, in district centers [00:15:28] in the village, there are no workers and teachers, everyone knows them [00:15:31] by sight, they greet them, come up to discuss something important and often [00:15:35] thank them for their help. working here is wonderful, [00:15:39] well, I don't know, everyone says that in the district, in the village, [00:15:42] it's hard, uninteresting, well, for me it was interesting, [00:15:46] constantly, when you come to work, you learn something [00:15:49] new, and you see new people, you talk to [00:15:52] them, they tell you something, everyone has their own [00:15:56] story too, Daria showed us her [00:15:59] one-room apartment, it has everything necessary, she has already ordered [00:16:03] a wardrobe for herself, she cooks constantly herself, she says there is enough space and the main thing [00:16:06] is that she is her own boss, you can read, study new [00:16:10] technologies in medicine, because her native hospital [00:16:13] is set to update further. We updated [00:16:17] our ultrasound machines, and by the way, we installed ultrasound machines not only in [00:16:21] the central district hospital, we updated them, but also in outpatient clinics, this [00:16:24] allows us to improve the accessibility and quality of medical care [00:16:28] directly to the rural population. In addition, last [00:16:31] year we opened a dental prosthetics department in our institution, which unfortunately [00:16:35] we did not have, and we bought material and technical base for dental [00:16:39] offices, new dental units, which are also not only in [00:16:43] the central district hospital, I want to boast that since August 1st [00:16:46] an endoscopic examination room started operating, what is interesting about this type [00:16:50] of assistance is that we received the equipment with the help of our colleagues [00:16:54] from Japan, we won a grant for this equipment, [00:16:57] this unit cost more than 70 thousand dollars [00:17:01] and now we can provide high-quality endoscopic assistance [00:17:04] to our population in full. [00:17:07] an important step towards their patients, because they receive all [00:17:11] the necessary help near home, but one [00:17:14] equipment alone cannot cope even with the latest model, [00:17:18] people must work on it, where the district leadership [00:17:22] and direct organizations understand this, [00:17:25] creating a comfortable climate within the team, improving [00:17:29] the living conditions of young specialists, there the percentage of personnel retention [00:17:33] in the village is only [00:17:34] growing.
