Иног­да ре­шения сде­лать серьез­ный шаг в карьере при­нима­ют­ся вне­зап­но и вы пог­ру­жа­етесь в су­ету, ко­торая ле­жит на той, боль­шей, неп­ривле­катель­ной сто­роне про­пор­ции Па­рет­то. Бы­ва­ет, что к ре­шению идешь за­годя, го­товишь­ся, не спе­шишь. Но очень час­то в обо­их слу­ча­ях при­ходишь к од­ной и той же сте­не, в ко­торой, как ка­жет­ся нет две­рей. Сто­ишь и не зна­ешь с ка­кой сто­роны подс­ту­пить­ся к ре­шению.

Вы хо­тите пос­ту­пить в прес­тижный за­пад­ный ВУЗ? На­конец-то в ком­па­нии Ва­шей меч­ты отк­ры­лась нуж­ная ва­кан­сия?

Вы бьетесь над сво­им анг­лий­ским и ист­ра­тили на уче­бу де­нег, ко­торы­ми мож­но бы­ло бы с го­ловой за­сыпать ас­та­нинс­кую Пи­рами­ду Ми­ра и Сог­ла­сия? Бьетесь как ры­ба об лед пы­та­ясь пи­сать и ана­лизи­ровать ака­деми­чес­кий ма­тери­ал на анг­лий­ском так же, как это де­ла­ют за­пад­ные кол­ле­ги или со­курс­ни­ки? Не зна­ете как пе­ревес­ти свою кни­гу так, что­бы ее анг­лий­ский был по­нятен анг­ли­чанам?

Как мы это­го до­бива­ем­ся? От­вет прос­той. Пос­то­ян­ное пре­быва­ние в те­ме и 70 про­фес­си­ональ­ных иност­ран­ных ре­дак­то­ров.

Пе­репе­чат­ка ма­тери­алов на­шего пор­та­ла воз­можна при соб­лю­дении на­ших пра­вил.

Ни­же ин­форма­ция о не­кото­рых из бо­лее чем 70 на­ших ре­дак­то­ров и ко­ор­ди­нато­ров, ко­торые на про­тяже­нии мно­гих лет ра­бота­ют в на­шей ком­па­нии.

I am a 2008 alum­na of the Uni­ver­si­ty of Mi­chigan (USA) ma­jored in Eco­nomics. Back in 2006–2007 I spent a year in the US high scho­ol as a fi­nalist of FLEX-AC­CELS prog­ram. Du­ring that ti­me I to­ok part in the na­ti­onal es­say com­pe­titi­on in po­liti­cal and eco­nomic fi­eld. My es­say on Wo­men in Ame­rican Po­liti­cal Sce­ne high­lig­hted the rep­re­sen­ta­tives of Mi­chigan Sta­te Ad­mi­nist­ra­ti­on was awar­ded with se­cond pla­ce in the com­pe­titi­on.
Cur­rent­ly I work in the Audit De­part­ment of one of the Big4 com­pa­ni­es. Du­ring the first year, I was in the Fi­nan­ce sec­tor audi­ting lar­gest banks and fi­nan­ci­al ins­ti­tuti­ons of Ka­zakh­stan. Star­ting this year I ha­ve trans­fer­red to the Ener­gy sec­tor, so Ka­zakh­sta­ni oil and gas com­pa­ni­es are my cur­rent pas­si­on.
Thro­ugh the Com­pa­ny’s so­ci­al de­velop­ment prog­rams, I vo­lun­te­er at dif­fe­rent pla­ces, one of them is the Na­ti­onal Re­se­arch Cen­ter for Ma­ter­nal and Child He­alth, whe­re two ti­mes a month my col­le­agues and I

Бен (ре­дак­тор)

I’ve spent my en­ti­re adult li­fe re­se­arc­hing and wri­ting. From col­le­ge pa­pers to news ar­ticles, from his­to­ry and ge­ne­alo­gy stu­di­es to re­ports on exis­ting en­vi­ron­mental con­di­ti­ons wit­hin the Cas­pi­an Sea, my re­se­arch and wri­ting ex­pe­ri­en­ce en­compas­ses a wi­de ran­ge. I’ve ser­ved as a re­por­ter for pub­li­cati­ons in the Uni­ted Sta­tes, Uk­ra­ine, Rus­sia, the Re­pub­lic of Ge­or­gia, and So­uth Ame­rica, and as an edi­tor for a pub­li­cati­on in Chi­le. I’ve pro­duced bu­siness plans for ven­tu­res in Kyr­gyzs­tan, con­sulta­ti­on re­ports for cli­ents in Azer­ba­ijan and Qa­tar, con­tent for an on­li­ne Rus­si­an tra­vel com­pa­ny, and over­se­en the cre­ation of an en­ti­re ma­nage­ment sys­tem, with writ­ten hand­bo­oks, po­lici­es and pro­cedu­res, for an in­terna­ti­onal cons­truc­ti­on com­pa­ny ba­sed in the Phi­lip­pi­nes. I’ve al­so edi­ted trans­la­ted co­py in both the for­mer So­vi­et co­unt­ri­es and La­tin Ame­rica, inc­lu­ding text­bo­ok stu­dy gu­ides and first drafts of re­ports in­tended for sub­missi­on by Ka­zakh stu­dents. I ma­in­ta­in a blog (al­be­it one in which I ha­ve slo­wed a bit in ke­eping up), and am cur­rent­ly try­ing my hand at script­wri­ting. On this lat­ter ven­tu­re, I ho­pe to pro­duce so­met­hing worth brag­ging abo­ut in the ne­ar fu­ture.

Еле­на (ре­дак­тор)

I’m an ar­tist and a pho­tog­rapher. A ta­ylor and a bit of a de­sig­ner. Par­ty or­ga­nizer and a bit of a flo­rist. Tell me what ne­eds to be do­ne (writ­ten, pro­of­re­ad or drawn) and I’ll do my best to do it in the most cre­ati­ve way. I was born in Ka­zakh­stan. Ra­ised in Ge­or­gia. Edu­cated in the US. I lo­ve tra­veling and call my­self a per­son of the world. As I for­got long ago what it fe­els li­ke to be a to­urist any mo­re — I just tra­vel, see pla­ces and try to ma­ke my ho­me whe­rever I’m sta­ying at the mo­ment. Tho­ugh if I had a cho­ice I’d just li­ve and work at Dis­ne­yland! P.S.

Ян (ре­дак­тор)

I am Jan, ge­ne­alo­gist and a pro­fes­si­onal wri­ter. I star­ted wri­ting abo­ut ge­ne­alo­gy when I was thir­te­en years old and felt rat­her bo­red whi­le I was slow­ly re­cove­ring from the me­as­les. A li­fe long in­te­rest was born for wri­ting and re­se­arc­hing his­to­rical is­su­es such as the gre­en che­ese on the is­land of Te­xel (1550- 1919), the dif­fe­rent ma­nufac­tu­ring pro­ces­ses of cho­cola­te, Ma­ar­ten Lut­her and his fol­lo­wers (the fo­un­da­ti­on of the Lut­he­ran Church), and ma­ny ar­ticles on the his­to­ry of gast­ro­nomy. Wri­ting scho­lar­ly es­sa­ys is one of my spe­ci­alisms. I am al­wa­ys open for new chal­lenges.

Крис (ре­дак­тор)

I dis­co­vered a ta­lent for wri­ting long be­fore a de­sire to ac­tu­al­ly do any, and it was not un­til I’d drif­ted aim­less­ly thro­ugh uni­ver­si­ty and half way ac­ross the world that I ca­me to re­ali­se I co­uld ma­ke a li­ving out of it. I ma­in­ly wri­te for lo­cal com­pa­ni­es and pro­jects re­qu­iring fa­ult­less Eng­lish in or­der to ma­ke an imp­res­si­on with cus­to­mers, but I ha­ve so­me work pro­moting Ka­zakh­stan to the Eng­lish spe­aking world, and spent a pe­ri­od ear­li­er in the year wor­king as an Eng­lish lan­gu­age edi­tor and news­re­ader for Ka­zakh TV (Cas­pi­onet). I al­so pre­sen­ted a TV prog­ramme on the Bi­lim Chan­nel in 2012 and ha­ve be­en fe­atu­red on va­ri­ous Ka­zakh te­levi­si­on shows, not as a wri­ter, but by vir­tue of my be­ing one of the ve­ry few fo­re­ig­ners pro­fici­ent in Ka­zakh, and on the domb­ra. I am Bri­tish and a na­tive Eng­lish spe­aker, flu­ent in Ita­li­an and Ka­zakh, with my Rus­si­an and French al­so qui­te re­aso­nab­le. I ha­ve in the past at­ta­ined a go­od le­vel in Ara­bic but ha­ve lar­ge­ly for­gotten it now. I am a tra­ined jo­ur­na­list but ha­ve ne­ver be­en emp­lo­yed by a news­pa­per or ma­gazi­ne, pre­fer­ring ins­te­ad to sub­mit ar­ticles and fe­atu­res as a fre­elan­ce cont­ri­butor.

Се­рик (ре­дак­тор)

Қазақ мек­тебін бітірген. Жур­на­лис­ти­ка ма­ман­дығы бойын­ша Ка­зақ Ұлттық Пе­даго­гика­лық Уни­вер­си­тетін бітіріп шықты. Қазіргі за­ман­ның қарқын­ды ағыны ма, тағы басқа ма, тіке­лей ма­ман­дығына бай­ла­ныс­ты жұмыс­ты атқарған емес. Дей тұра, Ин­тернет желісінде жа­пон тіліне қатыс­ты он­лайн сай­тын­да www.ko­mi.com/ja­pane­se иерог­лиф таңба­лары жөнінде шағын мақала­лары жа­ри­яланған. Қазақстан-Жа­пон адам ре­сурс­та­рын да­мыту ор­та­лығын­дағы алғашқы га­зетті құрас­ты­ру то­бының мүшесі болған. Га­зет алғашқыда Қазақстан­ның мәде­ни­еті мен сал-дәстүріне бай­ла­ныс­ты бо­луы тиісті еді. Өкінішке қарай алғашқы ба­сылым­ды сақтап қала ал­ма­ды. Жа­пон тілінде сұхбат құруға ша­масы же­теді.

Ах­мет Байтұрсын-ұлын Алаш тұсын­дағы қазақ ағар­ту­шыла­рының ара­сын­дағы ерек­ше тұлға деп та­ниды. Бұл көзқарас өзінің же­ке пікірі, әрі басқа да белгілі аза­мат­тарды кемісіткендігі емес.

Па­оло (ре­дак­тор)

Pa­olo is from Si­cily, Ita­ly, but the world is his ho­me. In his wri­tings he aims to surp­ri­se the re­ader with unan­ti­cipa­ted turns and int­ri­gu­ing twists, which he mi­xes with cle­ar and simp­le sen­tences. With a wi­de Mas­ters edu­cati­on in In­terna­ti­onal Stu­di­es he has a pas­si­on for lan­gu­ages. He flu­ent­ly spe­aks Eng­lish thanks to his long ex­pe­ri­en­ce bet­we­en the Uni­ted Sta­tes and the Uni­ted King­dom (!) and Spa­nish and easi­ly un­ders­tands Rus­si­an.
