And, by the way, you can't legally simply "move to Hong Kong" without some sort of visa allowing you to do so.

Yeah I will have to try and see what to do, I will look into the HK Rugby Football Union more though! Thank you for that advice! Is there a big sports governing body out there you know of by any chance?
Start here I guess: http://www.hab.gov.hk/en/policy_resp...sing/sport.htm
Yes I know it's not as easy as that! It's all in the planning stage still! And will only be moving if everything is legit and legal!
That's a great start, thanks
I'm having a hard time making sense of this statement. How can having Chinese (assuming cantonese) language skills add any value to justifying an employment visa? As you said, an employment visa is granted on the basis that no local can do the job and certainly all locals speak cantonese.
I think you could have left out the "no chinese" part of your statement. This guy won't get a visa based on the fact he is a fresh grad and likely doesn't have the education or experience to offer anything a local can't already offer.
While having chinese language skills certainly makes you a more attractive candidate for a job in general, wouldn't it be mostly irrelevant from the perspective of Immigration granting an employment visa (cantonese that is)? Dare I say, speaking Cantonese could almost be viewed as a negative when granting an employment visa...as now you are more likely to be competing directly with locals....?

Not unless you hold a passport from one of the countries participating in the Working Holiday Visa scheme, which doesn't include the UK.
(Germany, Canada, Ireland, New Zealand, Australia, Japan, & Korea participate in the scheme)
I think you'll struggle trying to get a job in PR. However, the graduates I know who have come here looking for work have been successful (but then I only know those who've stayed - not those who had to go home!). You could maybe consider teaching English, recruitment or maybe consider a postgrad degree.
what we HK people know that we can apply for a working holiday visa to work in UK ,but it doesnt show on our gov website with very little promotion about this info. i believe it works both ways like other countries,British citizens can apply a working holiday visa to come to Hong Kong. you could ask for info from Uk border ?! maybe.
