"Organizations and enterprises of the Samara region were presented at the Festival of Professions in different directions, - said Marina Nalivalkina, Deputy Director of the Managing Center of Employment of the Samara region. - The very format of the event allows visitors not only to learn about professions, but also to participate in real work processes, and this certainly generates interest. We had a similar experience in our region last year, when we held an exposition of professions. It was the first such exposition, and it was very highly appreciated by visitors of different ages. At the Federal Festival of Professions, we also tried to make our program useful for completely different categories of visitors, but first of all it was focused on young people who are still deciding on their professional path. I hope we helped them in this".
