Excerpted from the China Career Guide
China is an emerging market that has
captured the imagination of many around the world. As a developing
nation, China receives assistance from foreign governments and
non-governmental organizations (NGOs) throughout the world. All are
trying to determine how best to offer help to China’s 1.3 billion
people and, as funds for various projects flow to China, there are
many related work opportunities in the development field.
Development jobs come in many
different shapes. Some jobs are associated with the largest NGOs in
the world (e.g., the World Bank and the Asian Development Bank both
have significant operations in China). These groups have
historically placed greater emphasis on infrastructure projects. For
example, the World Bank has been associated with the construction of
cement plants and the Asian Development Bank has been known for its
highway building.
This is just a sample of what you'll find in the complete guide.
