After graduation, she tried to begin a modeling career but various modeling agencies in Saint Petersburg and Moscow were not interested in her.[3]

After working as a police officer in Pskov, she moved to Saint Petersburg to attend the Saint Petersburg State University of the Ministry of Internal Affairs of Russia. While a student, she worked as an investigator for the Pulkovo Transport Police.[4]

Fedorova graduated from university in 2000, and later began post-graduate studies at the same university. She wrote her thesis on "Regulation of Private Detective and Security Activity in the Russian Federation," and also taught civil law to students.[5] In 2002, Fedorova received her Doctor of Philosophy degree in civil law from the Saint Petersburg University of the Ministry of Internal Affairs of Russia in 2003.[6] After receiving her doctorate, she continued to teach at the Saint Petersburg University of the Ministry of Interior of Russia.[3]

As Miss Russia 2001, Fedorova was unable to attend Miss Universe 2001 due to her studies, but competed the following year at Miss Universe 2002, in San Juan, Puerto Rico.[14] Donald Trump, owner of the Miss Universe Organization said, "This is an unusual year, and these countries are right in the middle of a lot of turmoil. It's tough stuff. Once they're [in San Juan] they feel safe, but it's the getting there that concerns some of them." Fedorova won both the swimsuit and evening gown competitions over the other nine semi-finalists. Upon being crowned Miss Universe 2002, Fedorova was given multiple honors and gifts.
