Hays Pharma - January 2010
CHINA
Hotspots
Regional and global projects have poured into China as a result of the number of pharma companies that have established regional or China headquarters in Beijing and Shanghai. This has created a demand for candidates with English language skills, good communication skills and related work experience.
In order to secure such candidates, employers are turning to global recruiting agencies.
The coming quarter
While vacancy activity will be steady this quarter, it is expected to rise following Chinese New Year when employers reveal their hiring intentions.
Employer trends
Most employers maintain a time-consuming recruiting process, especially for senior roles.
Candidate trends
Candidate activity remains unchanged and is not impacting the local recruitment market.
