The article analyzes current personnel problems in the electronics industry, as well as the ways of interaction between enterprises operating in the electronics industry and educational institutions in order to solve the problem of shortage of highly qualified employees. The issue of personnel shortage is very relevant and requires timely implementation of measures for the most effective stabilization of the situation in the labor market. The article emphasizes the need of the labor market for scientists, research fellows, engineers, as well as IT specialists. The empirical base of the monitoring sociological study was an expert survey with representatives of leading Russian companies in the electronics industry conducted within the framework of the International Exhibition and Forum “Electronics of Russia” in November 2024, the results of which are presented in the article. The result of the scientific work was the identification of the interaction of companies operating in the electronics industry with educational institutions (universities and secondary vocational schools) as a key element of the companies’ HR strategy. Cooperation should be carried out in the formats of organizing practice, targeted training programs and participation of representatives of organizations in Career Days. The paper notes the influence of general economic and general social trends (the outflow of specialists abroad and to more attractive industries) specific features of the industry (insufficient level of wages), as well as shortcomings of the education system (lack of experience and practical skills of young specialists, insufficient number of educational institutions training personnel for the industry), which are characteristic of the Russian labor market in recent years, on the problem of personnel shortage.
