If anyone reading this post has experience of working for BKC or in Moscow, I would be grateful if he or she could give me answers to any of the above and suggest what other questions I should be asking. BKC have asked me whether I would prefer to work in Moscow or in one of the smaller towns. What advice could anyone give me here? The place Zelnograd has also been mentioned. Is this a good area or somewhere to avoid?
If you have read this far into my post, thank you very much indeed. I look forward to receiving any advice or information that you may be able to give me.
I look forward to hearing from you.
Richard
