A colossal experience. “This is a tremendous experience.

Is it easy to be the director of St. Petersburg, and even for more than one year? The answer to this question became clear during an interview with Kalinina Svetlana- a successful lawyer today and a former law student.

Kalinina Svetlana Alexandrovna – HSE graduate in 2013, who for two years academic years led the Student Legal Bureau. Svetlana began her activities in St. Petersburg as an intern while in her second year and until graduation she worked for the benefit of the student organization and, of course, for the benefit of the population of Nizhny Novgorod, who are in need of free legal assistance.

To this day, Svetlana remains not indifferent to the fate of the legal clinic and its employees - last year, under her leadership, student interns and consultants of St. Petersburg were able to try themselves as representatives of the parties in the arbitration process! The business game was characterized by maximum realism, which resulted in St. Petersburg employees receiving valuable practical skills.

Interviewer: What is your current place of work, position?

Svetlana: Lawyer in the group legal companies"INTELLIGENCE-S".

AND: What course did you take to St. Petersburg?

WITH: At the end of the second year, I started working in St. Petersburg as an intern.

I: In which St. Petersburg Centers did you have the opportunity to work?

From: Moscow and Sormovo centers.

I: How did you get to St. Petersburg? Was this a “conscious” choice?

WITH: At first I was interested in “what are senior students doing here?”, and I consciously asked. Then I realized that it was very interesting and also consciously continued to work.

AND: What did working in St. Petersburg give you?

S: The list here can be huge! This colossal experience! Experience in communicating with the public, ability to behave in conflict situations, decide for yourself various problems, quickly navigate what is happening. Experience in communicating with municipal authorities and officials. Experience public speaking in that quantity (from the director of St. Petersburg), which is especially valuable! Experience communicating with peer students who need to be motivated and helped in solving problems. And a lot of everything besides that.

I: As an employee of St. Petersburg, were you in any way different from other students?

WITH: I was the director after all. If we talk about my character, it seems to me that I could never “score” and relax. If there were current problems in St. Petersburg, dissatisfaction on the part of the guys or clients, I considered these personal problems. But at the same time, St. Petersburg also taught me a calmer attitude towards difficult situations, that is, a lack of panic and concentration on solving the difficulties that arose.

I: Do you remember your first client or the first case you resolved?

WITH: I don’t remember, because the first case was so difficult for me that I simply did not understand the essence of the question (laughs). The older guys later talked to that client, because I was only in my 2nd year. I remember well the client with whom I went to court. We lost. As I understand now (I remember the essence of the case very well), it was a very complex and confusing matter, ambiguous. The client itself was also not the easiest, to be honest (smiles). She then called me with or without reason, asking any questions more or less related to the law at any time of the day or night... Since then, I rarely give my number to clients (smiles).

I: Did working in St. Petersburg help in your future professional activities?

S: Absolutely. Not so much knowledge, but skills in handling knowledge and communication skills. Frankly speaking, it’s difficult to actually learn something legally in St. Petersburg... Not all consultations are highly literate. But! St. Petersburg provides practice that is very useful in another sense!

I: What would you like to wish to current clinicians?

S: Passion for the job!

I: Thank you very much for participating in the survey!

How did you start your career in the company?

I came to MEGAPOLIS in 2003 as a credit controller, and before that I worked as a customer service manager at financial organization. What attracted me to the company was that it was a large distributor with a good reputation and opportunities for professional and career growth. The credit department at MEGAPOLIS was just being created at that time, and I had a lot to learn. And so it happened: after a year and a half I became a senior credit controller, and five years later - deputy head of the department. In my opinion, management appreciated my initiative, generation of ideas and their implementation, as well as my willingness to replace colleagues in my work if such a need arose.

What achievements are you proud of?

During my work as head of the treasury credit department, the amount of overdue debt from clients to the company decreased significantly, which made it possible to improve accounts receivable turnover rates and reduce the amount of working capital involved. Together with the sales department, we automated work with key counterparties, analyzed the quality of payment discipline, finalized and automated systems for assessing solvency and verifying counterparties.

How did the company evaluate your achievements?

I was awarded a gold badge “For contribution to the development of the company.” At that time, only 20 company managers with a staff of 14.5 thousand employees received this award. It was a great honor for me to be included valuable employees"MEGAPOLIS".


Among the owners of MEGAPOLIS there are foreign shareholders. How does their presence affect corporate culture and the company's operating style?

We are a transparent company, and this guarantees paid holidays and white salary. We also receive subsidies for food in the corporate canteen and medical insurance. Every year we conduct staff assessments. It allows managers to constantly improve their skills, gain additional education and predict an increase wages upon achieving a certain result. Created in the company also helps with this Corporate University, which allows for targeted improvement of employee qualifications, which ultimately has a positive effect on the company’s performance. There are more and more opportunities for professional and personal growth here every year. Thus, this year employees have the opportunity to evaluate department heads using the “360 degree” method. Thanks to feedback with our subordinates we see our strengths and weak sides and we also get an incentive to develop further.

Many top managers face overtime. Is this problem relevant to you?

I usually only stay in the office when it's due. major projects, and I cope with the current work in the allotted time. However, I am not afraid of periodic overtime: thanks to new projects and complex tasks, I grow professionally. For example, in 2015 we opened a United Customer Service Center in Samara. I was directly involved in this process and am very pleased with how great it all turned out.

How do new IT technologies affect the work of your department?

Gradually, computers are starting to do all the routine work: defaulters are automatically charged penalties - previously we did this manually. Now every client receives on our website Personal Area, where he can see if he has a debt.

MEGAPOLIS has a large staff of employees, many regional branches throughout Russia. How do you communicate with each other?

We communicate by e-mail. Once a quarter a corporate magazine is published, which describes the work of different departments. On our internal portal There is a section for new employees. It describes the company structure, instructions, and responsibilities of managers. If something is unclear to a newcomer, he can ask the administrator questions through a special “Question - Answer” form.
