Tech at Youth Festival: Careers, Discussion, and Awards
Yakutsk Fuel and Energy Company (YATEK), the largest gas production company in the Yakutia region, recently participated in the "Work in Yakutia" festival to promote career opportunities, vacancies, and corporate programs in the energy sector. The festival took place in the creative cluster "Labor Quarter" in Yakutsk on July 16.
At the YATEK booth, schoolchildren, students, and graduates could fill out an application, ask questions about internships and employment, take a professional quiz, and receive memorable prizes. The company, referred to as PJSC "YATEK", was very popular among the participants of the "Profession Quarter" quest game.
Specialists from the company spoke at several platforms about career opportunities in the oil and gas industry. Tatyana Merzlyakova, the Deputy General Director of Human Resources and Social Policy of YATEK, participated in the business segment of the festival. She shared information about the company's corporate programs for students, graduates, and young professionals.
YATEK is actively engaged in recruitment efforts to attract qualified professionals for roles related to their ongoing projects, including the Yakutsk LNG plant, a major liquefied natural gas project expected to be completed around 2026–2027. At the festival, YATEK likely showcased current vacancies in various operational and technical positions linked to the Yakut LNG project and its resource base.
The company offered a special prize for the festival: an invitation to the Gas Industry Worker's Day celebration in Kysyl-Syr with travel and accommodation for two people. This celebration will take place on August 30 and includes a large corporate event with a gastronomic festival, master classes, a show program, performances by Yakutian pop stars, and a fireworks display.
Tatyana Merzlyakova emphasized that working at YATEK offers opportunities for professional growth, competitive salaries, and an engaging corporate life. She also added that the event has reached a new level for youth to 'touch' their future profession and communicate with company representatives. Lyudmila Koryakina, a colleague of Yevgeniya Guseva, head of the personnel recruitment department, stated that they offer to fill out an application and participate in a quiz with prizes, and that they show that oil and gas professions are relevant for both girls and boys.
Tatyana Merzlyakova also spoke at the discussion platform "The attractiveness of Far East regions for the development of career trajectories for youth". She highlighted YATEK's role as a key player in regional energy initiatives, including partnerships for large-scale gas projects enhancing the region's energy infrastructure and economic growth.
