Wb HK? Seems like a viable fit for you. Their pay is also generally on par with London.
I can consider it as a new destination I suppose. They unfortunately speak a different Chinese language so I'd just be an English speaker there.
I mean people do speak cantonese . But I believe at the largeBBsthere they would speak mandarin. Many of my Chinese oxbridge peers (who came from mainland China) ended up working inHK.
I suppose I could see if they would hire me for some roles. It's expensive as hell I've heard.
Isn't it cheaper than london? Also the tax is a lot lower.

Learn moreJust checked it out and for a single guy, if I get salaries similar to what I'd get in the UK I'd save about the same.
In Shenzhen if I got paid €20,000 a year I'd save the same as I would on a €35,000 salary in Ireland lol.
You will savea lotmore inHK, compared to London
Assuming similar costs of living (higher rent inHK, but less on food, restaurants, expenses etc) and the same salary: 100K GBP after tax is just 67K GBP, whereas inHK1.1M HKD is 915K (85K GBP) after tax...31% more, and this gap increases as you earn more
并考虑post-Brexit英镑,salaries inHKwill also be higher by ~30%compared to London for equivalent entry-level finance roles
It's a massive difference...>50% more net saved inHK
Being white and also able to speak Mandarin is definitely a plus inHK. The market is dominated by Chinese business and you'll use Mandarin a lot at your job. In terms of daily life though, yeah English would probably work better as a lot locals don't speak Mandarin that well.
I'll learn a bit of Cantonese while I'm there if I go, shouldn't be as difficult after knowing Mandarin. Do you know much about the firm's there? As in, do they hire from EU?
Mainland Chinese working in HK:
Not sure of Mainland job market, but forHKyou definitely have good chance of recruiting withBBsif you speak both English/Mandarin fluently and have good education/internship backgrounds. From what I've seen, being white only lowers your chance when you don't speak Mandarin and are not senior enough.
This website deletes Chinese comments I guess. No worries,I read your comment through my emails. Yeah I'd expect fewer opportunities for a foreigner, probably best for me to stay and work in Ireland or in the UK for a Chinese company as they've already given me some offers. Thanks for your insight!
No problem. Best of luck in your new job!
being a tiktok influencer in china
Not happening
Great
Try Singapore? Everyone ditchingHKfor SG and there's a shit ton of rich Chinese people here + lots of western firms and pay is great
They also speak English and Mandarin so it's the perfect combination for me. I've been mulling over the different cities I could go to and it seems like I'll choose between there, Dublin or London. I'll have to see who hires me and how much they pay now.
That's great! I strongly recommend Singapore if u get the chance. It's the perfect mix of a high growth and high wage economy. There's also the opportunity to meet great people too!
