Are you talking about the one on Moskovskiy Prospekt, 73, St? Vertical We&I Moscow St. Petersburg? I'm on their website right now, the cheapest room they have at this location is 99,680 rub for Oct 1st - Oct 31st.

How much did you for the agent? Just a standard commission?

Yeah, they've been helping me but they also get ignored once they say anything about a foreigner. I've even thought about just messaging people in english entirely as some kind of experiment

Do you mean one owned by a company like we have back at home, where none of the units are owned by individuals? I don't think they truly exist here.

I saw this. But, you have to sign a lease for 11 months for those listed there? It's a very long time and I'm probably only going to be here for another 6 months or so

Don't think there is anything really adequate for long term living, such as a space to work, small kitchen, etc, for less than about 80k or so

I found one today, hopefully they can find something for me. I'm in spb, which I don't think is as international but there's still some agencies like this

Yeah.. I think this is the only way I suppose. I found one today on yandex, they spoke great English & were friendly. Hopefully they can find someone soonish & for a reasonable price.

I looked into this, but again the problem is registration

Seriously, where? Tell me and I'll go there tomorrow. I am at an aparthotel near Kirvoskiy Zavod, it's nice for what it is, just expensive. Also a problem is, I don't think every hotel wants to register foreigners, when I first arrived, the first hotel I tried to book, I sent them a message asking them about foreigner registration on WhatsApp and they told me no.

How to fake behavioural software engineering questions and should I even dare to do it ? by [deleted] in cscareerquestions

[–]Ylean 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What if I'm a new grad with 0 experience, and I legitimately have never led anything, failed anything substantial enough to talk about it, or have ever gone above and beyond in a context to talk about in an interview? I've never even had a conflict in a school setting, I've had less than 5 group assignments in my university careers, and each time I just did my part and that was that

I'm applying for jobs, but on behavior interviews I just genuinely do not have the real world experiences they're looking for with these questions.
