Gazprom remains the most attractive potential employer for Russians, with the share of respondents who would like to work for this company increasing by 50 percent, the VTsIOM public opinion center reported, Interfax said.
Given the choice of working for any major company on the Russian market, 44 percent of respondents would choose Gazprom, up from 33 percent in 2009, according to a survey VTsIOM conducted this fall in 138 population centers in 46 regions of the country.
The survey showed that the appeal of employers such as oil major Rosneft has risen to 29 percent from 23 percent, while Sberbank was at 25 percent, up from 19 percent.
Though no margin of error was stated, VTsIOM usually has a 3.4 percent margin of error.?

A Message from The Moscow Times:
Dear readers,
We are facing unprecedented challenges. Russia's Prosecutor General's Office has designated The Moscow Times as an "undesirable" organization, criminalizing our work and putting our staff at risk of prosecution. This follows our earlier unjust labeling as a "foreign agent."
These actions are direct attempts to silence independent journalism in Russia. The authorities claim our work "discredits the decisions of the Russian leadership." We see things differently: we strive to provide accurate, unbiased reporting on Russia.
We, the journalists of The Moscow Times, refuse to be silenced. But to continue our work, we need your help.
Your support, no matter how small, makes a world of difference. If you can, please support us monthly starting from just $2. It's quick to set up, and every contribution makes a significant impact.
By supporting The Moscow Times, you're defending open, independent journalism in the face of repression. Thank you for standing with us.
Remind me later.
