Headhunters from Shanghai, shortage of e-commerce talents

As news report says, Shanghai leaders are worried about the shortage of financial talent is hobbling the city’s bid to become an international center for investment and banking. To overcome this problem, the municipal government has launched an ambitious scheme to increase the number of qualified professionals in financial services by at least 40 percent in the coming five years. Such efforts have greatly intensified the competition for the available pool of talent in other financial centers of Asia, mainly Hong Kong and Singapore. They are seen to be more adaptable to the Shanghai business and social environment, either because of their cultural background or professional experience in regional markets. We can see that nowadays e-business talent is also hard to find out on the job seek fairs.
