As somebody who wants to be a ExIm manager, you should have a good idea which urban clusters in China have the most relevant industry and is closest to the busiest ports.

It depends oh where you want to export to.  

 

If your planning on Africa then you should head to Guangzhou. 

North America , then  head to Shenzhen  for  Factory made products  and Shanghai for most tech, 

 

If your hoping to send stuff to India then Sichuan would be a decent base.  

 

If you are looking at Korea and Japan and have ever watched  the English CCTV then you should already know to head to  THE PORT OF DANGDONG!!!

 

There are also large shipping areas, in QIngdao,  Yiwu,  Ningbo   and Tianjin. 

 

Im not sure if you have noticed, but the economy in China is fairly specialized.  A shopping mall filled with nothing but jeans.  A whole street of tea.  A city that is famous for wood products.   This also happens in the import export business.  Its not very common to find a jack of all trades exporter.  ( Import??? Your kidding right??)  your your going to need to focus on an industry and area.   But if all of this is news to you then you should probably forget about the " manager" title and just work on picking up an exporter job.

A:I'll give my two cents on the age part. It's not as easy but can definitely be done. I was 21, fresh out of university and landed my first teaching job in china as a homeroom kindergarten teacher on a pretty standard 20,000/month salary. I'm 1 year in now and am still happy. Pretty much all international kindergarten jobs on here want 2 years experience, but many will still accept if you have experience in your home country. With that being said, being white and having a nice looking face is much more of a decision factor in china vs the west, if you can- use it to your advantage. Good luck finding something! -- brinsleym
