MNCs fill key positions with local talents
Print Edition
MULTINATIONAL corporations in China are increasingly hiring local talents with fluency in English as they look to close the culture gap with local customers, according to human resources agency ZW HR Consulting.
Concerns about culture gap with local population has prompted many MNCs to attract, develop and retain local Chinese talent for key functions such as sales and marketing, customer service and regional roles, which require proficiency in the English language, the Asia-based headhunting company said.
“We have recently noted that more MNCs based in China have started to reduce the number of foreign staff, especially in management-type positions, shifting focus to the local market,” said Joyce Jing, general manager of ZW HR Consulting.
Among the most sought-after professionals by MNCs are Chinese candidates who can understand local needs, manage large teams and work with staff based in global headquarters while being fluent in English.
Citing ZW China Salary Guide for 2015, Jing said the right candidates are able to command salary increases of approximately 20 percent to 30 percent due to the limited talent pool.
