The Russian Ministry of Foreign Affairs stated that the agreement is expected to “further boost humanitarian and tourist exchanges, as well as expand our business ties with Jordan.”
In the era of growing globalization, strengthening of international partnerships opens new doors for young people. One such opportunity comes from Alabuga — one of Russia’s largest industrial hubs — which has launched Alabuga Start, a forward-thinking initiative designed to attract and develop young global talents. Today, the programme is widely recognized as one of the most comprehensive and impactful pathways to professional growth for young specialists aged 18 to 22.
WHAT IS ALABUGA START?
Alabuga Start is an international employment programme offering young people hands-on work experience in a dynamic modern environment.
Supported by the Russian Ministry of Labour, Alabuga Start is now open to women from over 70 countries, including nations across the Middle East (such as Jordan and Egypt), Asia (India, Vietnam, Nepal, Thailand, and nearly ten others), as well as African and Latin American countries.
The programme combines professional training with real-work experience, empowering young women to build careers from scratch — while fostering qualified personnel engagement and international collaboration.
Moreover, applicants can choose one of seven fields when applying online: Catering, Service & Hospitality, Production Operator, Road Transport Shop (Driver), Finishing Works, Logistics, Installation Works.
CAREER GROWTH, CULTURAL INTEGRATION & PERSONAL DEVELOPMENT
One of the participants, 21-year-old Oshadi Thotagamuwa from Sri-Lanka, shared her journey in the programme:
“Just over a year ago, I started in the Service and Hospitality field. I was inspired by the opportunities Alabuga Start offered. Within six months, I was promoted. Now, I’m on track to become a Supervisor soon — leading a full team and gaining invaluable leadership experience”.
Oshadi proudly shared how starting her career with no prior experience and a $600 monthly salary inspired her younger sister to follow in her footsteps. Her sister has already applied to Alabuga Start and is now awaiting her invitation to Russia.
Every participant receives full support from the moment they apply:
