During my Bachelors degree at the Tomsk State University I had the opportunity of working in the International Relations Department of the Board for the International Activity of the Committee for the Foreign Affairs of Khanty-Mansiysk Autonomous Area in Yugra. I undertook research on the actual normative legal basis for regulating the international and inter-regional relations of the region. I also translated letters, and programmes from Russian to English and from English to Russian. This experience allowed me to develop my team-working skills, and also enabled me to use statistical and analytical tools. At the time of internship period I established the reputation as an industrious worker, accomplishing tasks carefully and within set time limits.
