Q: What would be appropriate women's workplace clothing in Beijing, China?

I will be interning in Beijing with a logistics company but I am unsure what will be the correct dress code. Are Chinese employers more conservative in terms of styles, colors and lengths of skirts that are allowed? How about shoes, are flats ok?

To avoid trouble keep your top half well under wraps (no shoulders and no cleavage). As for your skirt, it doesn't seem to be an issue in China what length it is. That is as long as you wear stockings or tights. I wouldn't wear black shoes ( I heard it's for older women). You could wear any shoe (formal) Here people who sell fish in the market wear suits and high heels. I've even seen a Chinese lady climb a mountain in stilettos! Because of such, dress codes are not so important here but they will stare if they see your shoulders.... strange indeed.

You can accord to the Chinese bank stuff. Wearing formally helps with your working performance. Good luck.

Nobody logon here anymore, because of your re-posting of inane replies to the threads from 5 years ago!

A: "... through ..."?  Only "through" comes to mind is "Shenzhen agent can connect you with an employer, who's authorized to hire waigouren ... and can sponsor Z visa." It's not like every 10th person you meet in Shenzhen's hood can sponsor work visa ...  The only way to change from student to labourer visa is just a regular way by: 1. Finding an employer, who'll apply for an Invitation letter; 2. Exit China and apply for Z visa in your home country's Chinese embassy; 3. Enter China in 30-days after Z visa was stamped into your travelling instrument ...As I am aware, you won't be able to switch to Working permit by remaining in China....,so make ready for a return to your home .... -- icnif77
