Government said - everybody should work. If you do not work it consider - violation, because in socialize every one should work. The slogan was - who is not working, not eating. So, if you don not work - you will not get any welfare. Or you should have a true disability. Usually after completing college or university - graduates had placements. Salary was 110 - 120 rubles. Than you could have little raise. To work at the same place was a good practice. People had choice to change jobs. For example - my mom worked 35 years at the same work place and before retirement she had salary as 150 rubles and she was an economical engineer with Masters degree. I was a mechanical engineer and at one point decided to be a teacher and found a job in school system by myself. Mostly, people found new jobs by referrals.
