Objective – to analyse the personnel management system of the pharmaceutical institution. Materials and Methods. We performed analysis of the personnel potential efficiency of the pharmaceutical institutions and the personnel potential research by studying the respondents' opinions. Results. Many graduates do not wish to work in the specialty chosen and prefer to work in related fields. About 75 % of managers of pharmaceutical institutions prefer to have in their staff the experienced personnel in the similar position. Only 25 % of the managers surveyed are ready to employ the young energetic staff - the graduates of pharmaceutical departments of universities. Two places of work were changed by 50,58 % of respondents, and over four places of work – by 22,36 % of respondents. Only 27,06 % of respondents work in one place and are not going to change it for another one. In case of possibility to have a job with higher salary and better working conditions 68,45 % of respondents with experience time under 2 years and 28,57 % of respondents with experience time under 5 years are ready to change their place of work immediately. To quit pharmacy is thought over by 33,8 % of respondents. Conclusions. We studied the definitions of the personnel potential available in literature and gave our own definition of the personnel potential of the pharmaceutical institution. The study revealed common patterns of the personnel potential efficiency of the pharmaceutical institution. It was found that pharmaceutical institutions need qualified professionals with a high level of practical training, ready to immediately join the working process. It was noted that only 47 % of graduates are prepared to work in the specialty chosen. We studied the length of employment with one employer. The analysis of the main problems making pharmaceutical professionals to change their work is performed. During the questioning of pharmaceutical students it was noted that a large number of students (32,89 %) feel uncertainty about their further employment and 47 % of respondents are going to work in the profession.
