Hello all,I'm currently doing a lot of work with Global Consulting firms based in Moscow who are interested in seeing candidates from the UK (preferably Russian speaking). Do you think I'm flogging a dead horse or do you speak with people currently who are interested in getting experience in 'alternative' locations such as Russia?Thoughts appreciated.

Hi there,I speak native Russian, have a management consulting background and quite involved with the Russian community in London. I am not sure how much luck you will have placing someone directly from the UK into Russia. You have, however, two options:1) Try the business schools (INSEAD/LBS) and economics masters programmes - they have a nice amount of Russian speaking people, some of whom may be inclined to come back.2) You could try to widen the search significantly if you offered the recruiting firms to have the consultants on a 3/4/5 basis (3 nights in Russia, 4 days and the Friday at home in the UK). I know that such an offer would be very interesting for me.Regards,Ilya

Hi, I am interested in entry-level opportunities at consulting firms based in Moscow. I am not from the UK, but at the moment I am in the final year of a Master's program of Regional Studies in Russia and Central Asia at Harvard University. I speak fluent Russian and have spent a considerable amount of time in Moscow as well as in Russian regions doing research. Are the firms that you work with interested in American candidates? Regards,Alex

Hi Ilya,Maybe you can help me with my research project. Maybe you are or you know someone who could have an interview with me.Student of the Freie Univerzität of Berlin Germany, I am leading a research about organizational cultural change in the context of american "transplant" firms in Russia for my MA thesis. I am particularily looking at firms based on the "One firm" firm system.Therefore, I would like to have interviews with past an present professional staff of the following firms in Russia:a. Accenture,b. Goldman Sachs,c. Latham & Watkins,d. McKinsey & Company.There are no costs involved (I call you to do the interview at requested time).The interview will be as your personal experience in terms of the meeting of your russian "native" culture and the culture of the american "transplant" firm.In exchange of your participation, I can provide you with a summary of my results and, unless you want to stay annonymous, I would be happy to add you in the acknowledgment section of my thesis.All academic references available upon request.ludovic.tessier@aol.comMany thanks in advance, Ludovic
