The company increases its staff and additionally opens more than 200 vacancies in engineering and blue-collar specialties. Since the beginning of the year, about 100 new employees of various professions have already joined the Biokhimik team: locksmiths, operators, adjusters, chemists, technologists and many others.


Stability and perspectives

Promomed Group contributes to the training of a new generation of leaders of the Russian pharmaceutical industry. Cooperation with leading universities of the Volga region and Russia as a whole, secondary specialized educational institutions, lectures by leading Russian scientists, trainings and probations at the Biokhimik plant, the production site of Promomed Group, help students choose a specialization, study advanced technologies in the pharmaceutical industry in order to further apply the knowledge gained in their work for the benefit of Russian healthcare and patients.

Biokhimik is not just a pharmaceutical plant, but a modern enterprise where much attention is paid to science and new technologies. Cooperation with the Ogarev Mordovia State University, a strategic partner of the enterprise, opens up new opportunities for students in terms of professional and personal development.

Yulia Bekshayeva, a fourth-year student of the Institute of Physics and Chemistry of the Ogarev Mordovia State University was offered a real opportunity to effectively realize her full potential at Biokhimik. She was attracted by stability and perspectives, as well as the openness of production to new projects. Yulia had an internship at the factory several times. This allowed the girl to apply her knowledge in business and objectively assess her preparedness. Positive results and a desire to grow helped her to become an intern at Biokhimik.

At the University, Yulia Bekshayeva is engaged in chromatography. The laboratory part of her thesis fully describes and reveals the experience gained during the internship. Today, the girl is confident in her future, because she knows that after graduation she will become part of the pharmaceutical company’s team.

«I am inspired by the opportunity to make life easier for thousands of people and save lives. This is the best thing in my work, and what makes me constantly move forward,» Yulia Bekshayeva said.

For Danila Yamashkin, the internship was also very useful and allowed him to become financially independent. However, the young man's priority is still studying.

«University teachers are quite forthcoming. They can even develop an individual personalized training plan that would allow you to train and work. But I prefer to complete my studies without any indulgences, and then return to Biokhimik with a diploma to do first-rate work,» Danila Yamashkin said.

One can meet not only university students at the company’s workshops. For example, students of the Saransk Technical School of Services and Industrial Technologies are trained here. Stanislava Lyubiteleva, Polina Lyapina, Vladislav Yerushov and Daniil Kolmakov are classmates. They come to Biokhimik as a ready-to-work team. Girls work in workshops: they monitor the production line, label medicines, pack products. Young men can fix any problem with their own hands or reconfigure the software on modern equipment.

«Of course, we would like to return here to work after graduating from college. It's not just about comfortable working conditions and a good salary. Biokhimik helps to get better and develop. Working here, we, students of technical schools and colleges, get the opportunity to continue our education in chosen specialty at the university. Those who have a desire can consider postgraduate training. They are always ready to support you and help,» said Polina Lyapina, a student of Saransk Technical School of Services and Industrial Technologies.

The support and help for trainees and interns at Biokhimik is provided by mentors. Mentoring is a long-standing tradition at the plant, which has received a new meaning these days. As before, mentors are experienced and qualified specialists. They put the newcomers in the picture, help and teach them the basics, help them adapt. These people like to share their experiences, they get a lot of pleasure from it. Mentors know everything about the capabilities of their apprentices. They objectively evaluate skills and abilities, understand the potential.
