And im not just talking about like teachers or like free-lance translators, I'm asking about with businesses? and How would I like put myself out for those opportunities?
I appreciate any time and effort:)|||There are lots of companies in China that will hire you to do just about anything from accounting to biotechnology. Nearly all of them prefer someone that can speak chinese and english. Knowing the language will set you up for on of these jobs.
You could also find American companies that want to gain market share in China. You might advertise on sites like Alibaba.com and also to personally contact these companies.|||The one issue that I'm finding, honestly, is pay. If you go for a Chinese company in China, then your pay will only be slightly higher than the Chinese... and you may not get benefits. If you go for an American company in China, and you are highered in China, then you will also only get slightly higher than Chinese pay (case in point: Deloitte... I think they offer 9,000 RMB/ month to Americans highered in China with graduate degrees). If you're highered in China and you don't have much experience, you can expect 7,000-15,000 RMB/ month in Shaghai or Beijing. Not too good... The best option is to get highered by an American company in the U.S., then maybe get to use your Chinese. I personally found that they were not very willing to have me work with anything having to do with China. They were much more inclined to have me work in the U.S., and send someone who doesn't speak Chinese to China (go fig).
As for the jobs available, you can be a business consultant in China (there are tons of these jobs, but they don't necessarily pay well). You can work for a company like Deloitte. There are some journalism jobs, such as with Reuters. There are very few NGO jobs... some education consultant or education program jobs...|||Some shopping areas where there are huge number of Chinese visitors may need sales persons who are fluent with Chinese.
