China Start Up Recruiting

It is not surprising that a lot of recruiting goes on in China as Western Companies have so much business in China. China start up recruiting is a part of that.

China start up recruiting is an exciting time for Western companies making the plunge to make their first hire or hires. We get a lot of business with companies making their first of many hires in China.  SHI Group also gets a lot of business with companies who only need one person in China as well as those in between. We love the excitement of those times and helping companies understand China. Of course the best is making great hires. Usually, the new hire is worth more than initially understood. 

This makes sense as the first hire sets the stage for how you will succeed of fail in China. 

As such, it must be done more carefully and checked more closely.  That is where SHI Group comes in. We are known for the Quality of our candidates as we look three times as deep as our competitors and are not afraid to kill candidates by the data we uncover by the deep and hard work we take on to make sure every hire is a great hire.   

Transparency in Recruiting Does Not Get Enough Air Time

The value of having your own transparent people on the ground in opaque China is invaluable. Having the wrong first hire locks you into a contorted view of China as that hire crafts a world where they are untouchable. Other times the hire just explodes and everyone with it.

The right first hire or hires sets companies up and gets them a window into China that they enjoy for many years. If you add further people, the next hires we add will add to your success.  Quality recruiting  and more quality recruiting makes for quality work and a better work in China by far.(Consistent quality recruiting lays the foundation for long-term success in China.)

We get work like this in China purchasing, China supply chain, China sales, China trade, and more. In each case, the right hire makes everything go better and brings a new day for companies getting a start in China hiring.

China Start Up Recruiting Is An Exciting Time

China is the number two economy and has advanced manufacturing. It further has a global minded consumer market.  Having boots on the ground is invaluable and whether you seek a big footprint or one person, SHI Group gives you the start you need and is a partner in China for the long haul.

The energy and expectation of a China Start up is energizing but also exhausting. You have finance, sales, management, compliance in your home country and the list goes on along with family and friends. Then, the whole legal and time zone thing in China.  Hiring the first person or people is part of that. That is why we partner with you are always on your team to get the right hire.

China is confusing until you get that hire who is inside and in the right time zone.  Or that first hire is a wall and makes you think China is inscrutable, and he or she is the only smart person. Avoid these hires.  Hire dumb people or make sure they are trustworthy, and then you can hire smart people.

Back to the excitement-The first hire takes work, as you are thinking and planning and busy busy.  You find time to interview. Candidates speak better and worse English, but within is someone who knows China and your industry.

So Much To Do and So Many Details

Then, you must figure out how to legally pay the person in China as their labor laws are so different. You may need an EOR company to help you make legal payment to hires, or you need to register your own entity here and get office or factory space.  We know some China entry companies if you need one.

In the midst of all this you need to hire the right person. You need a recruiter that knows China and yet is on your team and not teaming against you to get people in.  Your recruiter must be thinking and working to find all the data about the candidates both good and bad.  That data is key to a safe and great hire. China start up recruiting needs that, and SHI Group is here to make sure it happens every time.
