I cannot stress the importance of networking enough (that is unless you work for an international firm with a HK base and can get a transfer)

My story is this, I was in HK about a month or so ago wanting to try my luck finding a job whilst there so sent through my cv's to a few companies with no replies whatsoever. I met some friends who then introduced me to either their recruitment agencies or passed my cv on with a note to people they know and I had more response that way.

And now I'm off to HK.

>> part of our salary goes to them or?

Employers will pay the headhunters for their services.

Alternatively, hang around this website and ask for leads. Hubby got his job this way!

been applying for awhile, no feedback yet... maybe it's becoz they know i am not in HK and i didn't put in the expected salary.

Yeah, I found it pretty hard to find a job when I am not in HK. I am still trying at the moment. How long have you been applying, pondok?

Hong

well, about 2-3 weeks...
i guess it's quite impossible to do it from overseas, esp when the employer can't be bothered contacting you thru email, as phone is a lot faster..
well i'll keep on trying
good luck to you

pondok,

cheer up, just keep trying, you will never know what will happen. I tried over a month now. It is hard, but i think it's possible. Good luck to you too...
