Q: Is it hard to get a job here in Shenzhen
I have been in Shenzhen for 2 weeks, now approaching my third week, and can't get a job despite the fact that my native language is english. I applied to so many places it makes me dizzy. is it that hard to get a job in Shenzhen?

have you tried looking at the 'Jobs' section on echina? there seem to be plenty still being advertised.
well the semester already started so you are a bit late.
And only being native speaker is not a guranteed joboffer
Do you have a degree and experience?
Whats your salary expectation?
You should apply at Training centers in person. I guess, you could apply at Public Schools too, despite semester has already started.
You should have your BA and TEFL/CELTA certificate ready for Z visa/ Residence permit.
Open 'Jobs' page at Echinacities (top R side of the screen), change 'city' to Shenzhen, and start sending your CV daily to every job offer in Shenzhen.

Does people with this horrible English actually get teaching jobs in China?

@Mikael: Erm, check your English before you start flinging the mud around.
mikael84:
I am not an English teacher so that is hardly relevant.
Not trying to throw mud around, just curious.

It is not a good idea to already be in China and looking for a legal job. You leave yourself open to the very probable chance of being employed illegally by an unscrupulous employer - and there are many of them around.
