Working in Hong Kong

Hong Kong offers strong opportunities in hospitality, tourism, events, finance, retail and international business, with frequent openings in hotels and restaurants. The culture blends Cantonese traditions with global influences; Cantonese is widely spoken, while English is common in business and hotels. Life is energetic and convenient, with excellent public transport, dense urban neighborhoods, diverse food, shopping, hiking and beaches. Housing is expensive, and salaries should be assessed against rent and daily costs. Overseas hires generally need an employment visa sponsored by their employer, usually under the General Employment Policy, and must meet qualifications and demonstrate a genuine job offer. Dependants may be eligible for dependant visas. New arrivals should arrange accommodation, health insurance, banking and an identity card after approval. Hong Kong is not a single island, but includes Hong Kong Island, Kowloon and the New Territories.
