St Petersburg State University of Architecture and Civil Engineering significantly improved last year's results: it took 28th place in the All-Russian university rating, gaining 103.8 points, and also entered the top five universities in the Northern capital. Salary expectations of SPbGASU graduates amounted to 60,000 rubles. On average, on the hh.ru platform, each graduate received 12.7 invitations to interviews from employers.

Last year, SPbGASU ranked 85th in the rating. Graduates received an average of 7.2 invitations from employers, and the expected salary level was 55,000 rubles.

The rating of the best universities in Russia according to hh.ru is based on the analysis of data in the resumes of applicants. Evaluation of universities is carried out according to five parameters:

1. the university popularity in its region, i.e. the share of the number of university graduates in the total number of university graduates in one region;
2. the demand for university graduates from employers, i.e. the average number of invitations to interviews received by one university graduate from employers on hh.ru in 2021–2022;
3. the relative level of expected salaries of university graduates, i.e. the ratio of the median value of the salary indicated in the CVs of graduates to the median value of the salary indicated in the CVs of university graduates of one region;
4. the amount of work experience of graduates, i.e. the average number of months of work experience indicated in the resume of a university graduate;
5. current employment, i.e. the proportion of graduates whose resumes include at least one job with an open graduation date from the total number of resumes of university graduates.

A university becomes a member of the rating if at least 100 of its graduates of the last two years had up-to-date CVs on hh.ru. According to a Headhunter expert, as part of the rating, more than 500 thousand resumes of graduates who graduated in 2021-2022 were viewed. The uniqueness of the rating lies in the fact that it covers the entire spectrum of higher education in Russia. It presents universities of any profile - both public and private.
