How to Move to Russia for Work
The total migration quota for Russia is quite limited and is distributed among all regions of the country.
A potential way to bypass the restrictions of the migration quota is to secure legal employment in Russia within one of the specified professions.
A good method for finding job opportunities is to browse websites like hh.ru, superjob.ru or trudvsem.ru although it is important to keep in mind that the site is in Russian and you may need to use a browser translator.
