Q: South African looking for china working opportunities?

I am planning to apply to study MBBS in China, so my wife (24 years old) and I will have to relocate to China for 6 years. I would love some guidance/advice with regards to what my wife's different working options in China will be (she has a Masters degree in Architecture with one year relevant working experience)? English teaching: will she get work in China with TEFL 140 and no English teaching experience? I there Architecture jobs for foreigners in China? Any advice in selecting a Medical University in China is welcome too (taking in consideration quality of MBBS course, quality of life in the specific area of China/my wife will have to be able to support us financially and work opportunities for my wife.

I know this is a mouth full, but any advice will be greatly appreciated.

Regards LL

Technically you need 2 years teaching experience to work, but the system is so corrupt that she might be able to get work if she's caucasian.

If you're concerned about the quality of the course, my suggestion is..... take a cpurse outside of China.

(I'm probably being a dick. BCD and drinking don't make for a pleasant Spider. Try WWW.CUCAS.EDU.CN
. I think that's the site. its a database of all of the major universities in China, with costs and admission requirements. also it enables you to apply pretty easy. I uded it to apply to several universities when I was picking a chinese language program)

L.L:

Okay,  "corrupt system" meaning an illegal job, or that they might approve her visa even though she technically require the 2 years teaching experience?

Both? Either one? Really, it depends on what city it is, and how well established the company is. It's possible to do, I'm sure there are plenty of people here who can attest (sp?) to that. Good luck!
