Hihi

What do you think of my chances of getting a job in HK? I've got 8 months of finance/banking experience as a Financial Advisor in Canada (employed by one of the top 5 banks) and as well participate in HR Career Recruitment Fairs for this bank; previous to this job, I have worked at one of the universities as a Coordinator for a yr. Both of these positions speaks of developing and improving relationship with clients.

My main concern is that I will need a company to sponsor my work visa. Therefore, I ask you, what do you think of my chances of being employed (in either Finance industry or HR) in HK?

(ps. i don't want to resort to marrying a HK citizen)

Thank you for your time and valuable advice!

To be honest, Your finance experience is not enough, You'll need at least 3/4 years to get your foot in the door in HK in that field.

A FRM qualification or CFP may help a lot. since you are in top 5 bank in canada maybe you can give a try as banks here are hunger for people.But 2 years in your current job will make things look better.



Jimbo,

still enjoy your fish and chips in UK? when you get back to HK and fight those employers again?
