Russia faces a shortage of engineers, turners, and CNC machine operators. The Russian job portal Avito in September received 2,000 resumes for turners, in comparison to 60,000 position openings. For CNC operators, there were only 600 resumes for 18,600 vacancies, despite the alluring salaries.
Those are some awful numbers. You know a large percentage of those few resumes are going to be junk applicants. But with those huge disparity rates, they are probably going to get hired anyway and the businesses are just going to attempt to do their best to get the junk applicants to be somewhat useful.
Assuming they have senior people they could train new applicants. But its Never good when you offer three to four times higher than the average regional salary and they literally tried to hire the reporter. Seems like they are going taking anyone off streets next. The good boomer “I just walked I’m with a firm handshake” will work here.
For CNC machine operators you can probably find simple repetitive jobs you can train someone on in a day and then every week show them one more new trick until after several years they are useful for simple non-repetitive tasks and a few years later they are useful. I’m not sure what turner is, but if it is lathe operator you can train someone in a couple days to be minimally useful - on the types of things you should use CNC for, but it will be a year or two before they can do the complex things you wouldn’t just drop to CNC. For engineers you really need a lot more training to be useful.
Yeah totally right on those. It’s still “workable” for some jobs.
An engineer apprentice would take years to be competent. I wonder if they are so deperate to even allow non-university educated to fill in the void. Even a fresh engineer grad has no where near the value as a veteran in a field. I hope they gave them service exceptions.
The US isn’t in a war with hundreds of thousands of casualties, the entire economy re-geared to produce wartime materials, huge needs to on-shore production as foreign partners cut ties, oil and ammo depots exploding all over the country cutting the two major sources of export revenue, central bank interest rates at 19% putting even the safest of loans at credit-card levels of interest, demographic decline that makes Europe’s problems look downright peachy, and persistent double-digit inflation wiping out the real value of everyone’s savings and making it even harder to afford imports.
In short, the US has a healthy economy and Russia has a wartime economy that is doing it’s best to win the war before an economic collapse.

Tight labour markets do magic for the slaves !
I would have expected good working conditions for the workers if they are so short staffed. Black plauge did do wonders for the workers.
Funnny how we never see these sort of break out withinthe US labour markets…
I wonder why 🤔

I want a report on which labour markets have shortages so employees can squeeze the corpo daddy… But plebs never get such data…
Go for it man!
