    Lightbulb Manufacturing / Retail HK Recruitment / Headhunter Agencies?

    Hi All,

    I am new to this forum and found it to be full of useful advice!

    Does anyone know of well respected recruitment/headhunter agencies with global presence that can help me find jobs in HK? I am currently based in New York and am looking for jobs in the retail/maufacture industry in HK. I am fluent in English, Cantonese and Mandarin.

    Thanks!

    Depends on how many years experience you have and with who AND who you want to work for.

    The global "executive" firms will probably not want to talk to you unless you're coming in with a 10+ year experience and they can place you at a 7 figure salary in HK.

    Many of the expats on this site, in manufacturing have been sent over.

    Hi KnowItAll,

    I am certainly not at executive level, I have about 4 years of experience in this industry, have worked for global companies like Liz Claiborne and am working for Target, have global sourcing experience in China and India (travel to these countries several times a year). So I am hoping with my experience and fluency in Cantonese/Mandarin/English I will be able to find something decent in a reputable company.

    Do you know of any non executive level recruiting firms?

    Thanks!

    Do you want to work in HK or China?

    Would recommend posting in the Shenzhen Forums as a fair number of the folks on there are in manufacturing.

    Try these folks ..
    http://jobs.hudson.com/hk/
    http://www.michaelpage.com.hk

    And the job aggregation sites like recruit.net etc to search for agencies that seem to have good coverage in your sectors.
