Job Search Overview

The most effective ways to find jobs in the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region are through the use of online resources, local newspaper classifieds and job/field-related trade magazines. Internet job searching resources are by far the easiest to use for those skilled with computer and Internet searching. Jobseekers can access online job websites and recruiters to search for jobs under categories of interest. They can even customize searches with desired parameters such as salary and position title. In addition, they can conduct employer research and visit company websites to research organizations, browse job listings and apply online. Résumé/CV postings and job databases allow jobseekers to receive Job Alerts by email and attend virtual and live career job fairs.

Online Job Sites

CareerJet.com
http://www.careerjet.hk
Careerjet is a job search engine designed to make the process of finding a job on the internet easier for the user. It maps the huge selection of job offerings available on the internet in one extensive database by referencing job pages originating from company web sites, recruitment agency web sites and large specialist recruitment sites. Job can be searched by location, job title or keywords.

CareerTimes
http://www.careertimes.com.hk/english/default.asp?browser=ie (English)
CareerTimes is a comprehensive job-search site associated with the Hong Kong Economic Daily, a major newspaper in Hong Kong well known for its accurately-researched finance and economics articles. This website exclusively offers job advertisements from Cheung Kong Holdings, HSBC, Hutchison Whampoa, Hang Seng Bank and more than a hundred of their subsidiaries. There is also a useful schedule of events for employers and human resource professionals. A range of human resource tools and reports is available, as well as cover letter tips, personality tests, interviewing tips, major company profiles and extensive salary indices. This website, which offers a more thorough industry segmentation than most other websites, also points the user to continuing education courses covering business management, language or industry-specific topics. With the vast amount of career guidelines and information, CareerTimes caters to both new graduates and those seeking government jobs. The "IT Jobs" section is especially good, both regarding available resources and listings.

This is just a sample of the job resources that you'll find in the complete Hong Kong guide.
