I think I wasn't clear enough
This is a position for English speaking developers. So please state your questions and CVs only in English. Please also keep in mind that we don't speak Russian.

 

Hi Alexey,
As mentioned in the offer we are looking for someone with good English skills - both written and oral. English is a foreign language to all of us so we all need to speak it well to avoid any misunderstandings.
Unfortunately for us it is a deal breaker
