The Beijing Zhongguancun International Personnel Market, the first permanent one of its kind on the Chinese mainland, is now operational, a senior official for foreign personnel affairs said Wednesday in Nanjing.
The market, set up for clients both here and overseas, is to serve all sectors which are in need of overseas people with specialized skills or are sending personnel abroad for study or training, according to Wan Xueyuan, director of the State Bureau of Foreign Experts Affairs.
Wan made the announcement at the 2001 China International Talent Fair, which opened here Tuesday and attracted over 200 foreign experts' organizations, talent exchange companies and training agencies from 21 countries and regions.
More than one million foreign experts have worked in China over the past 20 years during its reforms and opening-up, and 400,000 Chinese people have been sent overseas to study, according to statistics.
In 2000 alone, 440,000 experts from other countries as well as from Hong Kong, Macao and Taiwan worked on the Chinese mainland, eight times as many as 10 years ago; while 40,000 people went overseas to study, 12 times as many as a decade ago.
Wan said the number of foreign experts working in China will continue to rise during the next five years, and they and their agencies will easily find job opportunities for foreign professionals in such a vigorous market.
The market has opened two websites for service: one is www.chinajob.com and the other is www.caiep.org, according to sources.
