91 percent of Russians who served in the army on conscription believe that this service did not interfere with their career, and only 9 percent are sure of the opposite, according to the survey of the SuperJob service.
"I just started working a year and a half later"; "I served as a radio technician according to my profile," say those who are sure that the army did not interfere with their career. But 9 percent of men who have served in the army believe that it has negatively affected their career.
Most often, they complain about losing their jobs, losing skills and being deprived of the opportunity to get a higher education.
"As a result, I had to change both my profession and my place of residence," "I was not allowed to enter a university, after school - immediately into boots," "They were taken to the army 10 days after graduation from the technical school, I did not receive any experience in my specialty," complain dissatisfied with this turn of fate.
Among those who say that serving in the army does not interfere with a career, 87 percent of people with high incomes. And among those who are confident in the negative impact of military service on their professional destiny, there are more young people under the age of 34.
At the same time, the majority of Russians (55 percent) like the army on a contract basis, 21 percent are sure that a draft army is needed. Among the men who served, there are twice as many supporters of conscription service.
