Excerpted from the Hong Kong Career Guide
Before attending a job interview in
Hong Kong, it is important to research the prospective employer
thoroughly. The company’s website, yearly report, company brochures
or literature can provide important information relating to the
company’s business nature, recent development and future direction.
One should have a clear understanding of the responsibility of the
job and the skills and experience required for it. A good grasp of
the traditions and culture of the company, as well as of Hong Kong,
are important for a successful interview.
Personal relationships in Hong Kong
are very important. Therefore, it is helpful for a reliable third
party to make a business connection and provide information on
behalf of the candidate in advance. One should not be surprised if
the prospective employer seems know a great deal about him/her. It
is not uncommon for Hong Kong employers to do research on job
applicants before the interview.
This is just a sample of what
you'll find in the complete Hong Kong guide.
