WHat area of employment are you looking for?
www.jobsdb.com has quite a few job opportunities..it just depends on what kind of job you're looking for. i'm in the same situation
i heard headhunters are a good way to go, but don't really know of any good ones at the moment.
any suggestions on good headhunters anyone?
thanks in advance!
ucdaggie / fresher : what area?
Go to this website http://www.jobsdb.com/HK/EN/V6HTML/H...umAgencies.htm
All the major headhunters are listed here.
Michael Page offers very top positions;
Lindy Williams, Links, Drake earn pretty high reputation in town.
You can try to call up some of them, depending on your field.
Hope it helps.

I'm also in the same boat and here is what I have learned:
- Headhunters are too swamped with resumes to care about you and me.
- Same for any resume you submit thru a site like jobsdb.com or the SCMP classified; you just got lost in the pile
What's worked for me: networking! Get out and meet people. Join your countries Chamber of Commerce and check the webpages of the other major Chambers and get out there and go to their events

Amen!
Thanks for help
....Looking for something in HR preferably.
Any success stories would be appreciated (i.e been there, done ......)
thanks guys! yeah..networking is the common advice i've gotten from some locals. it seems like you can't really get anywhere without knowing people
Er, yeah. The very top positions are never even going to get close to JobsDB or Michael Page. You'd need to be talking to the likes of Heidrick & Struggles for stuff at HK$2M+ a year, and you won't see them in mass databases.Originally Posted by Jessica Adams:
