China is hiring, and young Americans are going

Many find it easier to get work as their friends are idled at home

BEIJING - When the best job Mikala Reasbeck could find after college in Boston was counting pills part-time in a drugstore for $7 an hour, she took the drastic step of jumping on a plane to Beijing in February to look for work.

A week after she started looking, the 23-year-old from Wheeling, West Virginia, had a full-time job teaching English.

"I applied for jobs all over the U.S. There just weren't any," said Reasbeck, who speaks no Chinese but had volunteered at the 2008 Beijing Olympics. In China, she said, "the jobs are so easy to find. And there are so many."

Except for English teaching, what else can you do in China?

As I am a Chinese, I see it differently. Companies here are willing to hire someone native. The reasons why a foreigner is hired by a Chinese company are: 1/English teaching job 2/marketing department which need someone to communicate directly to foreign customers 3/services which need foreign culture, like jobs in high class foreign restaurant.

It so strange that some Chinese wants to have a job in US while you guys want to go to China.
