Where did you end up settling if you don’t mind me asking? Are you in Hong Kong or China or Singapore or elsewhere?
Where should one focus their recruiting efforts? What country do most international graduates and up working?
Posted from my mobile deviceHi there
bb. I moved to Australia very recently. I was in Hong Kong prior to this and was working there full time. My move at this time is unrelated to the ongoing situation back in HK
In terms of recruitment, I would say that this depends on many factors. For example:
1. What work permits one holds.
2. Current market situation and the skills in demand in that country. For example, typically, client facing roles in several companies in Greater China region, Japan, Korea, etc require language skills.
For me, my background was quite technical prior to the MBA and I wanted to continue in tech, but in a more strategic role. So my natural options were India, Mainland China, Hong Kong, Australia and Canada (I have work rights in Aus and Can). If I had permit in Singapore, that would have been a great option too.
My personal advice to anyone spending top $'s for an MBA -> do research about the industries where you do your MBA. This is something I felt was lacking at times when I took candidate interviews. People tend to focus too much on rankings.
