Hi:

I am possible moving to Moscow in the next few months. I'm looking for any ideas on how I can find a job in the City. I don't speak Russian. I currently work for a large Bank in the US doing research and analysis.
I am not necessarily looking to get a job in banking and would like to know more about other career options such as teaching English as a second language.

Any comments are appreciated! Thanks

English teaching of Intermediate level students and up certainly doesn't require any knowledge of Russian. At least that's been my experiance, I do speak some Russian (I've learnt it twice) but find that I use it very little at work. Check out www.eslcafe.com for forums specifically related to the industry.
GOOD LUCK

Since you plan on living in Russia for a few months it will make your life easier if you do learn some Russian........David Smile
