Legal consultants, teachers, general practitioners, ecologists, librarians: just two months ago they started their first jobs — and now they proudly call themselves young professionals. How was their adaptation? Was the housing issue resolved? And most importantly, do those "tyrant bosses" and envious colleagues actually exist in real life?

These questions concern not only the young people themselves, but also Governor Alexei Kushnarenko, who today meets with young cadres in Dzerzhinsk to listen to them personally and, if necessary, help.

"Minskaya Pravda" also didn't miss the chance to ask the young people the most pressing questions, including about salaries.

Husband in agriculture, wife in the district clinic: a young family found their home in the provinces

Cases when a graduate of the Belarusian State Medical University, a native Minsk resident, chooses the Krupki District Clinical Hospital as her first place of work are rather an exception. But Daria Leonenko is exactly such an exception. The girl works as a pediatrician in the district pediatric department of the Krupki District Clinical Hospital. She says she came here following her heart.

— My husband works here in an agricultural enterprise. He's originally from the Gomel Region and was assigned to Krupki, and I also requested to come here. The town is small, but very cozy, quiet, peaceful, with its own quirks. After noisy Minsk, you relax, unwind, — Daria shares.

As a pediatrician, there are 605 children on her roster; up to 35 small patients come in per day. Dasha already knows almost everyone personally — in three months she has managed to get acquainted and study their medical histories.

— In August, when I just started, there were few patients: up to 10 people. But with the start of the school year, the flow increased. Now many come with complaints of cough, fever. I understand that parents expect help from me, so I take each child seriously. With teenagers it's easier in this regard: they don't want to be sick and stay home, they follow all recommendations. It's harder with mothers who already have three or four children: they know everything, can diagnose and prescribe treatment themselves, — the girl smiles.

Adaptation went easily and unnoticed. Dasha and another young specialist were assigned an experienced mentor — the head of the pediatric department.

— You can always turn to her for advice, especially on organizational issues: whether it's worth hospitalizing a child in Krupki or better sending them to Minsk or Borisov, how to properly prepare the documents.

Anastasia describes herself as a fair teacher. If a child makes an effort, she will easily give them a 10.

— Our school is more technically oriented, the kids are focused on physics and math. Although there are motivated guys who know English well. Such ones can be safely prepared for the Olympiad.

In two years: won't Anastasia leave for a big...
