涨多少薪水合适？
- Tuesday, 02 December 2014 01:33
求职者们跳槽的原因总是随着时间的推进有所变化。从早期人们跳槽只向“钱”看齐，到后来人们对公司文化和直线经理管理风格等软性因素的关注，这前后的变化让HR经理人们开始思考保留员工以及吸引新鲜血液的法宝到底是什么。根据罗迈国际2013年《中国人才流动调查报告》（TSF2），针对69%的调查参与者，跳槽时首当其冲的原因便是涨薪。因此，罗迈国际在2014年的一些列市场调研中针对涨薪进行了深入调查。
Can You Talk between the Lines?
- Tuesday, 02 December 2014 01:25
By ROBERT PARKINSON Every Chinese is proud of their country’s 5,000 years of cultural history. However, if people from the Western world were to interpret this culture in the wrong way, it would be quite difficult to communicate. Bearing in mind the cultural differences, many expats will have encountered conversational awkwardness with Chinese employees or colleagues. So, I begin my discussion with the Chinese style of “Han Xuan,” small talk. To start with, let’s imagine the following scenario: You come out of your apartment and meet an old lady from the neighborhood who asks you “Ni chi le ma?” (Have you eaten?). Expats are normally confused as to why Chinese people always ask them whether they have eaten – anytime […]
陈彤加盟小米 互联网人跳槽该选哪个“坑”
- Tuesday, 11 November 2014 01:04
根据《第一财经日报》的报道，此番陈彤加盟小米，得益于小米八位创始人之一的王川，“是他（王川）把我带进互联网殿堂，1997年年初带我拨号上了网，打开的第一个网站就是四通利方（新浪前身）。”陈彤称，“现在他叫我回来也义不容辞。”因为这份感谢，在新浪工作17年的陈彤成了小米的一员。
跳槽在如今这个自由程度越来越高的人才市场已经不算什么新鲜事，不过比起传统行业，最近几年互联网行业的跳槽频率实在高得有些引人注目。
Chinese Etiquettes – Vital in the Business World
- Wednesday, 05 November 2014 09:05
Chinese Etiquettes – Vital in the Business World By ROBERT PARKINSON No matter what part of the world they come from, expats in sales and marketing jobs in China and those planning to set up new businesses here need to study how the Chinese behave in the business environment. Expats come to China to be involved in the second biggest global economy. Figuring out the four rising and falling tones in spoken Mandarin – no easy task in a month – will not, however, help in delicate business situations. My advice is to make every effort to understand another important detail while at the business table – etiquette. First things first. Deals in China are not clinched in your company […]
What’s the medical term for ‘free’?
- Thursday, 30 October 2014 05:47
What’s the medical term for ‘free’? By Robert Parkinson In the early August this year, I came down with a horrendous cold. Fearing the worst, my wife convinced me to go to the hospital to get a proper diagnosis and treatment. After innumerable trials and no little hardship, I finally managed to register myself and set an appointment on an online reservation system. Just before going out the door, my wife reminded me to take my Chinese social security card with me to hospital. Frankly speaking, I don’t know much about how a social security card works. I know that in US, people have social security cards, but in the UK, where I’m originally from, the healthcare system is tax-based. […]
对未来老板要做“背景调查”
- Monday, 27 October 2014 08:37
当你成功获得心仪公司的面试机会以后，一定会急于了解该公司各方面的资料，了解企业文化，查阅面经等等。但当你对自己未来的发展前景、优越的工作环境、友善的公司氛围、丰厚的薪酬待遇满怀憧憬的时候，你可能不会想到，有一个因素对你未来职场发展的影响力，将大于前面所有因素的总和。
这个因素，就是你的未来老板。这里说的老板，可以是一个小型企业真正的CEO,也可以是大型公司里你所在部门的头儿，或者就是你的直线经理。简而言之，这个老板是你工作的直接领导与评价者，对你的升职、加薪、工作认可度起着最大的作用。
罗迈国际针对离职原因的电话访问显示，隐藏在那些晋升空间、同事关系、职责内容等等常见离职原因背后的黑手就是你的老板，90%的员工是因为不和谐的上下级关系最终选择了离职。如果在加入公司之前就对这位如此重要之人有一定的了解，可以有助于找到适合自己的工作机会。说适合而不是好坏，是因为工作之好坏没有统一标准，也很难量化，适不适合自己才是问题所在，对上司的判断更是如此。
求职面试是一种双向选择，被面试者和面试者拥有平等的机会，但他们显然很难处于信息对等的状态。然而互联网的蔓延和信息的爆炸却也给了我们更多的渠道，让用心、肯思考的人可以拼接出一个相对真实的老板形象。
Are You Ready To Link In With China?
- Monday, 13 October 2014 06:49
Are you ready to link in with China? Robert Parkinson People in the west are mostly familiar with the leading on-line business networking platform LinkedIn. According to its official statistics, by the end of 2013, the number of its registered users in 200 countries has surged above 250 million people. So putting LinkedIn as a tycoon in the social workplace field is not to overstate its position. Recently I received an invitation to test the Chinese version of LinkedIn. It is quite obvious that LinkedIn is aimed at elites and professionals of the 1.4 billion people in China. In this regard, for international companies with expansion plans in China, being part of this talent-seeking and selection group might bring them […]
What Don’t You Know About Chinese Outings?

What Don’t You Know about Chinese Outings? By ROBERT PARKINSON TGIF! Now that the workweek is over, you might be wondering which bar or club to spend a fantastic Friday evening with your Chinese colleagues. Sorry to pop your bubble, but you may be in for a disappointment when the “nice Chinese guys” at work huffily decline your invitation. For a newcomer to China it is completely normal to be refused at first. However, if you don’t sit down and ask yourself why Chinese colleagues are declining your invitation, you will probably remain an outsider who knows nothing about working with the Chinese. I have always paid careful attention to interactions between Chinese colleagues, employees, business partners and families over […]
Li seeks to smooth application process to obtain green cards
- Monday, 22 September 2014 07:21
Li seeks to smooth application process to obtain green cards A plan to make it easier for foreigners to obtain a Chinese green card is to be considered by the China (Shanghai) Pilot Free Trade Zone as part of trailblazing reform efforts to further open up and attract global talent. Premier Li Keqiang has asked the zone to come up with a plan to simplify procedures for applications and the issuance of Chinese permanent residency permits for foreigners in the zone. The zone covers about 28 sq km in suburban Shanghai and acts as a test site for what are considered China’s boldest reform measures in decades. “Complicated procedures for green card applications have impeded the FTZ in attracting global […]
