If you plan to find a job while settling in, I'm afraid you won't have enough money with you.
There's enough to worry about when you're alone and have to rent an apartment, get a ride and eat. If you don't have friends or family here that you can settle down with don't suggest you run away.
Dare you jump on the going away train without doing anything to prepare?
Think you are Xu Wenqiang, can single-handedly break into the Shanghai Bund alone?
I'm in this bustling city, and I see it all the time:
How many people can't find a job even though they have an admirable degree?
How many people have decades and decades of experience and only get paid minimum wage?
Those who guard the roadside in the hot sun and cold wind, a thousand dollars a month in order to solve the problem of employment.
Those who spend the night in the subway under the train station are left speechless every time they walk past.
If you're going to take one step at a time in your job search,
at least plan on surviving for a long time without being able to find a job.
Because supporting yourself in Shanghai is difficult if you don't have a place to stay.
Clothing, food, shelter and transportation are not cheap.
Dressing up, you need to look presentable to get a job.
Boys are fine, girls' expenses can be more or less depending on your requirements and taste.
Eating, that is, in the residential neighborhood to eat cheap rice, now the market are ten dollars or more.
Together with breakfast, a day down to say the least 20-30 dollars.
What's more, many times you can only go to the hotel restaurant near the business building to eat, or buy cooked food in the supermarket and other places, the price can not be said to be cheap.
Renting an apartment with three deposits and not bringing enough money with you is a heavy expense just to find a place to live.
Prices for slightly more accessible places, such as near the subway, are unaffordable.
How much time do you have to spend running to and from work if you live in a place that's not easily accessible?
Of course you can choose to share a group home, but you may not be able to find a suitable one in the short term.
The bus is usually two dollars to the end, or split fares.
The subway starts at three yuan and goes up with distance, so if you're traveling through the city or across the river, it's not cheap.
After getting off the train, you'll need to pay a 20 yuan deposit at the subway desk to get a transit card,
so you don't have to get on the train every time you need to get on the train, and it's easier to get on and off the subway by swiping your card.
What's more, there's a discount for subway transfers to air-conditioned trains and air-conditioned trains to air-conditioned trains.
The taxi fare now starts at 13+1 RMB.
If the job search goes well, you may have to run for several interviews a day, and how much should you spend on the road.
The world is not as it should be, and it is common to see false information about those who are only hiring.
While the law and order in Shanghai is a bit better than other places, this society is not a peaceful world either.
Please be sure to keep your eyes open and your wallet tight. Beware of false recruitment of various natures.
For example, in the Putuo district, especially along Changshou Road, there are reportedly a bunch of fraudulent companies that specialize in scamming people who are new to Shanghai.
Wherever you see a job posting, make sure you do the following.
First, check to see if the company is legitimate, and check the registration information through your local industry and commerce department or the Red Shield website.
If you can't find the information, you can't find the right one, and you can find the record of violation and punishment, then you can know whether the other party is reliable.
Secondly, check whether the recruitment information is true,
Find contact information by checking the number and ask yourself.
If you leave a cell phone instead of a landline, leave a cell phone posing as a landline,
Check out the number, check out the number and the real master can not be, call the number of the number of the number of the number of the number of checking is not that thing,
With the toes of how many people have encountered the self-proclaimed recruiting - interviews in the field - the traps of the trapped in the transfer of the chippings.
General scammers are posing as famous enterprises to recruit foreigners to engage in chiropractic, characterized by: casually call you to go to the interview/training/reporting.
Posing as China Construction, China Railway, CIMC, China Water and other large groups, TCL, Delta, Qisheng, Asus, BBK, Changhong, Everbright, Dongfeng Nissan, Lebay. And so on well-known enterprises,
Self-proclaimed to see your resume on the Internet. Give you a call and say you've been accepted and tell you to go to the field.
The phone number is often: 0769 (Dongguan), 0751 (Shaoguan), 0752 (Huizhou), 0760 (Zhongshan), 0753 (Meizhou) and other places of the small smart phone.
The old, young and poor areas, such as Henan Luoyang, Henan Luohe, Hebei Bazhou, Ningxia Guyuan, Shaanxi Weinan, Shanxi Yuncheng, Hunan Xiangtan, Hunan Loudi, plus all over Guangxi - this seems to be the home base of the transmission of cutting.
Third, the company name/location/telephone to find one by one, check the company's other relevant information on the Internet.
If you see a thousand job postings with no physical information, it should be a skin company.
If you see a lot of fluff, praise that meets all imaginations, personal stories or hearsay claiming that you/your friends/relatives are grateful for the place, then it's a shill.
If you see a lot of information about people being blown off and scammed, you still have to think it's not a scam.
Then we said you will not listen to anyway, then the trouble is that you try to come back as the opposite lesson well.
Finally, you need to keep your eyes open and your wallet tight.
Scammers, no matter how much they say, how moving and nice, are just using your eagerness to cheat money. Designated places for physical examination, to other places for interviews, pay file storage fees, clothing fees, reserved position fees, actors and actresses, model signing fees, photographic fees, registration fees, induction fees, deposits, fees, filing fees, registration fees, confidentiality fees, membership fees, security deposits,...... Patterns are many, in fact, they are all a scam! The money is cheated! As long as you hold your wallet tightly, not a dime, followed by the police, they have no way.
