Chinaís Hunger For Talent - Online Recruitment In China Conference 2008

Chinaís phenomenal growth is accompanied by an insatiable hunger for talent which is further exacerbated by one of the highest staff turnover rates in the world. Over the coming years, China faces a massive skills shortage across all industries, and finding the right people will be a major business challenge.

Enter Onrec.com, who will again be running their annual Online Recruitment in China Conference on 23rd September 2008 to address the key questions and challenges in the online recruitment industry in China.

Bringing an update on the Chinese market from industry insiders, tried and tested recruitment solutions and best practice innovations from around the Globe, onrec.com will help those already operating in, or thinking of entering the Chinese market to gain a better understanding of how cultural differences impact on the recruitment process and what can be learnt from global best practice.

Chinaís population may well be over 1.3 billion people, but there is no doubt that china is a candidates market, and the war for talent is moving online, according to China Daily. Chinese employments sites such as Zhaopin.com and 51job.com have reported a combined 4 million page views each day and Zhaopin.com reports a tenfold increase year on year, in companies using their site.

David Hurst, CEO of onrec.com says ìIt is an incredibly exciting time to be entering Emerging Markets like China. They have a major recruitment crisis and, being such a new and fast-changing market no depth of knowledge or experience to deal with it. Onrec.com is bringing industry experts from America and Europe who are working with organizations who already understand how to recruit online and weíre bringing that best practice, knowledge and experience to China on 23rd September 2008î

The Conference is a fantastic educational and networking opportunity, with industry experts addressing key issues such as: Understanding the recruitment challenges in China now and in the future; Navigating trends and cycles, Implementing best practice solutions, Developing retention strategies and effective behavioural assessment tools.

Frank Mulligan who attended last years event said ìYou could almost see potential opportunities being seized as the different players did the meet ën greet routine. The buzz was palpable and reflects the huge opportunities that exist in China, and Hong Kong. We are clearly on a cusp here.î
