Separate topics with commas, or by pressing return. Use the delete or backspace key to edit or remove existing topics.

You can leave an optional "tip" with Mahalo's virtual currency, Mahalo Dollars. If you are asking a difficult question that might require some research, or if you'd like a wide variety of feedback, a higher tip often leads to more answers to your question.

There are large scope for job opportunities in Russia holds 13 best companies as amongst 500 top companies in the world. There are great companies like gas producers Gazprom and Novatek, Vimpelcom, financial group VTB, steel manufacturers Severstal and Novolipetsk and aluminium exporter Rusal.

Some more tips on Russian job opportunities based on my Web search.

---quote----
Average working hours: 40 per week.
Holidays: typically 28 days per year.
Average graduate starting salary: 153,720 roubles, around £3,000 per annum
Russia has a flat personal income tax rate of 13%.

Major industries: oil, natural gases, metals and timber account for 80% of Russia’s exports. Other major industries include IT outsourcing, mobile technology and manufacturing, and banking.
Industries in decline: traditional farming and textiles.
Shortage occupations: Western goods and expertise remain in demand, particularly skills in transport, construction, ICT, engineering and teaching.

An excellent knowledge of the Russian language is crucial to your job hunt in Russia, in particular outside the capital city. Russian is spoken throughout the country along with some English, French and German. There are many local languages, notably Turkish and its Central Asian variants.

Typical problems encountered: while there are no laws to prevent foreign citizens from working in Russia, applying for a visa to live and work in Russia for longer than a year is a lengthy and difficult process, and the country has the highest level of academic graduates in Europe, so there is no shortage of candidates to fill graduate positions.

{Only copy a portion of the text, no more than four paragraphs, and never a full article.

Most importantly when you copy and paste text into an answer on Mahalo Answers, you need to separate the copied text from your original text. What we prefer on Mahalo Answers is that you add --quote-- at the beginning and ---/quote--- at the end of the copied text. For shorter sentences and paragraphs it is also acceptable to use quotation marks.

Acknowledge your paste job by mentioning the source in your answer text and it is essential and vital that you provide a link to the exact location where you found the text you copied.

Has Russia solved its corruption problems that prevent foreign companies from doing business with them?
