China Economy - MBAs Opportunities

Hi All,

The title is suggested by George, are there any specific opportunities for qualified MBAs??? Any one knows anything?? I do hear from my China students jobs for MBAs are scarce and difficult to get!! ...mmmmmmm

Also, there are many MNCs and there is this thing called "connections"??!! I also wondered what sort of salaries are being paid for MBAs? I also wonder what about the performance of MBAs in China? And as compared to the rest of the world especially Malaysia and China???


regards,

Hi David,

See an extrated article from msnbc.com; It's not an answer though but more like an addition to what you're asking.

‘A whole new range of talents’
Halfway around the world, they have a different philosophy. In China, more and more parents are stretching their thin budgets to find intensive personal tutoring for children as young as 3 years old.

“Talking about the future, the biggest word I’m concerned about is ‘competition,’ ” said Joseph Tan, an automotive executive in Shanghai, who spends $160 every month to send his daughter, You-See, to what are called “early MBA” lessons.

At a learning center in Shanghai, 3-year-old boys line up to have their fingerprints scanned into a computer. Parents pay up to $60 to have their sons’ prints and brain waves analyzed to figure out what subjects they should specialize in.

“Society demands a whole new range of talents,” Li Yue Er, a child education specialist, told NBC News’ Mark Mullen. “It’s more fierce than any time in the past 20 years with a market for jobs that never even existed in the past.”
