Hong Kong offers strong opportunities in hotels, restaurants, retail, finance, technology, education and tourism. Its culture combines Cantonese traditions, international influences, festivals, excellent food and a fast-paced urban lifestyle. Housing can be expensive, but public transport is exceptionally efficient, and many employees live in areas such as Kowloon, Hong Kong Island or the New Territories. Non-local workers generally need an approved employment visa before starting work; the employer normally sponsors the application and provides the contract and supporting documents. A valid passport, qualifications and relevant experience may be required. Relocating staff should budget for a rental deposit, transport, utilities and daily expenses. Hong Kong has subtropical weather, crowded city districts, nearby hiking trails and beaches, and easy regional travel.
