GLOBAL CAREER COMPANY: Careers in Asia - Friday 12 to Sunday 14 December 2008

The number one event for Graduates and MBA’s seeking a new career in Asia.

China, Hong Kong, India, Singapore, Malaysia, Pakistan, Japan, Taiwan, Vietnam, Korea, Thailand... Career prospects in Asia have never been more exciting!

The Market:
Asia has remained strong in the face of the global credit crunch and continues to lay claim to some
of the world’s most progressive and high performing economies. Fuelled by increased foreign investment in Pharmaceuticals, Finance, FMCG, Manufacturing, Oil & Gas and Transportation, growth has remained buoyant across China, India, Hong Kong, Korea and South East Asia and continues to exceed development in the US and Western Europe. In addition to the thousands of multinational companies operating in Asia, the last decade has also seen the emergence of a growing number of Asian companies with innovative products and services who are now competing on a truly global scale.

The Opportunities:
Leading Asian and multinational companies across Asia Pacific are stepping up recruitment operations as they seek the expertise required to meet the challenges posed by such vibrant growth. There is particular demand for graduates and professionals who have studied and worked in Europe and who have the regional knowledge coupled with international experience to help drive business in the future. The speed of economic development across the region means graduates and professionals can experience career progression at a rate that exceeds anything that could be achieved within the UK and Western Europe.
