Shanghai is to provide about 10,000 positions in technology and management for students returning from overseas in the next two or three years in an effort to further improve its human resources base, said government officials on Sunday.

Wang Anshun, deputy secretary of the Shanghai Municipal Committee of the Communist Party of China (CPC), said about 1,000 positions were available for returned students as the first step of the program covering public administration, urban development, automobile manufacture, biological medicine, information technology, education and public health.

Returned professionals could work for six months to three years, after which they could decide whether or not to stay.

Government departments promised a series of preferential policies, including resident registration, license applications, customs procedures, legal consultations, welfare payments and others, said Jiao Yang, spokesman for the Shanghai municipal government.

Talents were the most precious and essential resource for Shanghai's future development, noted Wang Anshun.

The municipal government is publishing related information on websites such as www.shanghai.gov.cn, www.eastday.com, www.edu.cn and others.
