Apply For A Job Based On A Geographic Region

China is generally broken down into 7 main regions. These regions are typically called “中国七大地理地区” which means the “7 Geographical Regions of China”. These regional classification get used from everything from government apps to travel so it is worth while to know a little bit about each. Bellow is a basic overview of each of the 7 main regions.

To make it as easy as possible for job seekers we have created application links for each of these regions. By applying to a specific geographic region you can let recruitment agencies know that you are interested job in a specific region of China. We have also provided a link to apply for jobs anywhere in China. You can use this option to let recruitment agencies, schools, and training centres know that you are open to all sorts of oppritunities.
