“I made it for the rule of trying to master not so much a destiny
as myself only, and change not so much a world as my own appetency…. ”

Sometimes it seems to us that our life is ordained by fate which impossible to understand or to change. It is certanly true in some measure, but ability to amend a destiny, first of all, gets the root in our way of reacting to events. There is a minute in the life when everything at this moment will depend on the accepted decission. It seems to me our destiny is full of such a minutes, but sometimes we do not take them into account propelly or don't notice at all.

I was born on the 8 of September in Khartcizsk of Donetsk region. In 1987 I went to the first form of general education school. In 1992 I pass to another school with profound study of foreign languages. It was my dream to learn English even from my green years, so high qualification of my teachers help my dream become true and served as a basis for my knowledge of language. During school-days I took an active part in school life, I was the winner of town competition in mathematics, history and region competition in English. In 1995 I participate in USA exchange program “Freedom Support Act” and I was an alternative student but unfortunately I could not study at American school because of some domestic reasons.

When choosing the proffesion we always face a difficult dilemma and the whole row of life stages will depend on the decission which is taken at this moment. To my mind it is necessary to detirmine accurately your future professional activity and nothing should influence on your choise. It is very important to be devoted to the occupation because only under such circumstances person will achieve a success in a career.

I entered the Donetsk National Technical University on the Faculty of Economy and Management, in the field of International Business Activity in 1997. This activity gave me two opportunities: from one hand I could learn economy, from other I would polish up my English and extra learn German. During my studing at the University I have an opportunity to perfect my knowledge in English and study such subjects which I use in my work practise now. High qualified lectors represent a maximal volume of information as to economic disciplines, instructing us in methods and techniques necessary in business. In 1999 I studied the problems of management in co-operation with the professor Strelets, as a result of which I discussed this issue at regional scientific conference

At present I am a student of magistracy of Donetsk National Technical University. The topic of master dissertation is “The development of marketing strategy for foreign company in a building sector in Ukraine”. I am interested in this topic because it is quite relevant question and new area in business which is developed day by day. Now Ukrainian enterprises meet a lot of problems when trying to enter and develop the new market. So, the problem that company executives faced is absence of relevant information about competitors and customer needs. It can be explained by existed approach at the soviet time to the service and market in whole. So, we need time to destruct an old stereotype and build new effective system of manufacturing activity. The idea is to study marketing, demand, and clients needs. At my work, marketing as a discipline and some steps in marketing research will be reviewed on the example of “Foreign Trade and Building Corporation”, where I have been working at this problem for six month. I think, that the sales process will be a much better process for company after research than to competitor who did the sales before the marketing.

As far as my future plans concerned, I would like to achieve something at this life and not to lose beautiful moments which is given to me. I know that sometimes it will be difficult to attain the object, but to a greater or lesser extent, our life depends on ourselves only…
