Description

Dynamic and varied, the St. Petersburg world of work is continually broadening its horizons. Gone are the days of the belief that Russia was closed to foreigners, uninviting and backward. Russia has become a considerable trading partner in many areas from tourism to industry and therefore an insight into Russian culture is invaluable to any company. As an intern in one of St. Petersburg's rapidly developing industries, one can expect to acquire an essential understanding of the Russian workplace and mentality and gain highly sought after skills.
