Why did you ask this and then answer your own question?

 

Do you have a multiple personality disorder?

 

If so, then NO, you can't... well you probably still can... they will just think you are a crazy foreigner... but we will all know... and I will tell them!

What do you have to offer for skills and experience? You can treat this as a rhetorical question of which to consider over the course of several days.  Do research on companies and their needs and try to position yourself and your resume in a way that can address those things.  Also make some friends.

Is 'foreighner' actually a job in this country???

 

Normally, in most other countries, the answer is 'no'... but here I'm not so sure!

If you were a foreigner, your question would have been "Can I get a job in China?"

 

As a Chinese person, you must add the "as a foreigner..." part.

 

In answer to your question: It is difficult for useless, dishonest, spotty-faced internet lounge dwellers to get jobs in China. Or elsewhere.

 

sorrel:

maybe this is a Chinese person who wants a job as a foreigner - probably reckons the pay is better.

My inside sources tell me you can get a job in Beijing. Just go to the Communist Party HQ, and tell them "ROFL-MAO" sent you to do a complete audit. Be sure to also tell them that you have business management skillz and leet experience inwhich you pwn people.

truth is that it wont be easy to find job in your professional field. As foreigners are not so competitive as locals; so 2 options: to work for a foreign company (you will find some offers but much more less than Chinese companies propose).

Or change your attitude to English teaching - and then definitely you will find a job easily))

To get a job as a foreigner, is like saying can I get a job as a cook? ie...the job is BEING a foreigner. I'm a foreignerr here, but it isn't my job. Or is it? Oh no...
