Q: What are my chances of finding a job in China?

I am a 32-year-old Colombian woman, a native Spanish speaker with proficient English language skills. I hold a Diploma in Graphic Design from Brisbane TAFE and have completed a photography course. My professional journey has encompassed a broad range of experiences in the hospitality industry. I began as a waitress and progressively advanced to the role of General Manager. Additionally, I have worked in call centres as a customer representative, with some sales responsibilities, and served as a Business Class flight attendant for Qatar Airways. I am keen to explore opportunities in either the hospitality or marketing field.

I'd say, in Hospitality, you should be a fluent Mandarin speaker ... and there are plenty of domestic Chinese, who can do that better and cheaper than you.

Majority of Chinese don't understand and speak English or any other foreign, out-of-China language. Mandarin is the king in China ...

 

Marketing it might be more suitable field as I assume, you would promote and sell Chinese products to the foreign market.

 

Looking for a job is very personal matter or in other words, nobody can advice you on finding a job anywhere in the world.

You should turn to a 'FindJobz' tag on the top of this screen, prepare your CV and email it away.

 

Good luck!

with no Chinese your salary expectations would be VERY low in any of the industries you have outlined.

That is the reality.

There are many other countries that would provide better opportunities for work with your experience.
Also you would experience some degree of racist behaviour from Chinese locals.

good luck !

A: If you received an online degree in most cases it should have been from a reputable college. If it came from a degree mill that definitely would be a problem. You should not worry about how they will contact this place. If the degree is considered authentic the people will know where to go to inquire. In my case I needed a copy of my diploma and one company in China recommended a Clearinghouse that was able to verify my degrees. They did not provide copies of the diploma, though. If the place where you received this degree is acceptable in your country then, it should be acceptable in China.Another point to consider you stated it was an MS degree. I have not aware of any programs that allow students to hop from a high school education to a Masters degree level education. With that said maybe you received a Bachelors degree. If that is the case submit that information.  I would not encourage you to lie. In that you definitely will not have any paper trail to back up your story. Some companies do not accept TEFL online especially if it came from International Open Academy. That place is a one room office. I would consider that a TEFL mill. It was such a waste of time.Do you have the ability to do searches online? -- slspringer22
