This article continues the series of publications devoted to the study of entrepreneurial curricula at
Russian universities and their impact on the formation of the small and medium business sector in our
country. A study of entrepreneurial curricula at the graduate level has been carried out. In general,
our analysis shows the underdevelopment of entrepreneurial education at the graduate level in Russian
universities. Also, our data confirm the existence of a significant gap between the attempts of
entrepreneurial activities of the universities and the content of the graduate curricula they implement.
Among the results of the our research, we can note that the master’s curricula in entrepreneurial
education is potentially the most perspective and in demand for solving the problems of regional
development. Analysis of the programs for the development of «basic» universities, a new group of
Russian universities formed to support the development of territories, shows that most universities
recognize their challenges and activities in this area, however, the level of existing practices does not
yet allow us to speak about the sustainability of the process of creating new master’s curricula in entrepreneurship.
A significant methodological and content limitation of the formation of master’s curricula
in entrepreneurship is the unresolved issues of the correlation between hard and soft skills, future skills
in the system of graduate education. The professional community has not yet developed approaches
to the development of curricula, teaching technologies that meet the modern demands in entrepreneurial
education. There are the lack of discussion platforms on these topics, discussions are mostly
concentrated in several universities and the Russian Association for Entrepreneurship Education.
The question of taking into account the educational results obtained in other universities and types
of entrepreneurship curricula, in particular on the Master of Business Administration (MBA) programmes,
remains a difficult issue. Coinciding for a large part of the content, requirements and learning
outcomes, they are in different «weight» categories and are difficult to integrate, contrary to common
sense. It seems to us that the existing approaches to the financing of the graduate programmes
practically do not give a chance to create educational products of the required quality. If there is no
drastic change in funding standards, the set of graduate programs will for the most part remain slightly
improved undergraduate programs, including in the graduate level of entrepreneurial education.

The article analyzes the traditional and modern technologies of personnel selection used in Russian
organizations. Its content solves the problem of substantiating the need to implement psychological
selection of applicants for employment along with functional selection. The article gives
examples of different types of interviews used in the selection of candidates during recruitment.
The paper presents the technology of psychological selection through the use of semi-standard
metaprogram interview, which is considered as a way to assess the socio-personal competencies
of the applicant, the peculiarities of his motivation and decision-making. The article considers the
most relevant types of patterns of thinking (metaprograms), diagnosed in the course of the interview:
«mode of reference», «the desire — avoidance», «activity — reflexivity», «common — private»,
«single — manager — team player»; examples of diagnostic questions aimed at identifying relevant
metaprograms based on linguistic analysis of the speech statements of the interviewee.
