Введено и обосновано понятие иллюзорной гибридности – ситуации, при которой формальная возможность удаленной работы оказывается существенно ограниченной неявными требованиями к территориальному расположению сотрудников. Эмпирическая база исследования сформирована на основе контент-анализа 187 вакансий с платформы HeadHunter и результатов фокус-групп с 16 участниками, включавшими как ИТ-специалистов, так и HR-менеджеров. Полученные данные фиксируют устойчивое доминирование столичных регионов (71,1 % вакансий), выраженное неравенство в уровне оплаты труда (региональные предложения на 20–34 % ниже) и преобладание гибридных форматов с условием обязательного офисного присутствия (61,5 % вакансий, в Москве – 73,9 %). Результаты позволяют выявить институциональные барьеры, включая символический контроль через офисоцентричные практики и скрытое предпочтение локальных кандидатов, что сохраняет пространственное неравенство. Практическая значимость исследования заключается в выявлении «ловушек гибридности», требующих пересмотра HR-стратегий, формулировок вакансий и управленческих подходов для реализации потенциала цифрового труда в условиях российской экономической географии.</p></abstract><trans-abstract xml:lang="en"><p>The article presents a detailed analysis of the contradiction between the officially declared flexibility of hybrid forms of employment in Russia’s IT sector and the persistent high geographic concentration of job vacancies primarily in Moscow and St. Petersburg. It introduces and substantiates the concept of “illusory hybridity” – a situation in which the formal opportunity for remote work is significantly constrained by implicit requirements regarding the territorial location of employees. The empirical basis of the study has been formed by a content analysis of 187 job postings from the HeadHunter platform and findings from focus groups with 16 participants, including both IT professionals and HR managers. The data reveal the stable dominance of the capital regions (71.1% of vacancies), pronounced disparities in wage levels (regional offers being 20–34% lower), and the predominance of hybrid formats with mandatory office attendance (61.5% of vacancies, 73.9% in Moscow). The results identify institutional barriers, including symbolic control through office-centric practices and hidden preferences for local candidates. The study’s practical value lies in exposing “hybridity traps” that require revisions in HR strategies, job descriptions, and managerial approaches to fully unlock the potential of digital labor within the framework of Russia’s economic geography.</p></trans-abstract><kwd-group xml:lang="ru"><kwd>Гибридная занятость</kwd><kwd>удаленная работа</kwd><kwd>ИТ-сектор</kwd><kwd>рынок труда</kwd><kwd>пространственное неравенство</kwd><kwd>географическая концентрация</kwd><kwd>HR-практики</kwd><kwd>цифровая трансформация</kwd><kwd>иллюзорная гибридность</kwd><kwd>региональные дисбалансы</kwd><kwd>заработная плата</kwd><kwd>институциональные барьеры</kwd><kwd>центр-периферийные отношения</kwd></kwd-group><kwd-group xml:lang="en"><kwd>Hybrid employment</kwd><kwd>remote work</kwd><kwd>IT sector</kwd><kwd>labor market</kwd><kwd>spatial inequality</kwd><kwd>geographic concentration</kwd><kwd>HR practices</kwd><kwd>digital transformation</kwd><kwd>illusory hybridity</kwd><kwd>regional disparities</kwd><kwd>wages</kwd><kwd>institutional barriers</kwd><kwd>core-periphery relations</kwd></kwd-group></article-meta></front><back><ref-list><title>References</title><ref id="cit1"><label>1</label><citation-alternatives><mixed-citation xml:lang="ru">Кастельс, М.
