In this article, the adaptation of personnel is considered from the perspective of the modern approach of social identity, according to which the personal involvement of a young specialist in the new social and professional environment is the basis of the desire to continue their activities in the organization. Main hypothesis was that positive social identity is associated with the actions in the course of adaptation to enhance cognitive, axiological and behavioral aspects of the activity, the main place among which is information-psychological support of young specialist from the head, mentor and team with the inclusion of a specialist in joint activities.

The aim of the study is to identify socialization factors, the most significant for young civil servants, which have a direct impact on the formation of their positive social identity. We consider as the main factors the acceptance by a young employee of the status of a public servant, the motivation of a public servant, attitudes to common activities and a desire to enlarge contacts with management and colleagues, social and labor activity. The method of research was a survey (questionnaire) of 109 young professionals who experienced socialization practices in federal and regional government bodies, and municipal employees. The study revealed that the information and psychological support of the young specialist by his leader, mentor and team, when the new employee is included in common activities, is one of the main factors of socialization. This article concludes with propositions for possible areas of improvement of the process of socialization of young professionals in public administration at various levels.
