I sympathise and understand fully, I'm going through exactly the same right now as well rapid_jap.


I have plenty of good experience under my belt and have worked for a large number of multi nationals but as soon as they find out I need a work permit and I'm not fluent in canto then they ignore me.

I had an interview with a big 4 yesterday and they were reluctant to apply for a work permit on my behalf for a senior analyst role, And don't even get me started on the salary negotiations aspect! I thought I'd be generous and ask for only $23k a month as hey its my first job in H.K and its not about the money but exposure in the h.k job market, But they then say 'can you go lower'?

I'm like wtf! I have 17 years work experience, Project management and consultancy experience and have excellent references and you can't afford me?
