Shanghai: Demand for IT Experts Grows
Civic leaders urged information technology (IT) professionals to log on to opportunities available in the nation's financial hub. Fu Wenbiao, vice-director of the Shanghai Municipal Informatization Office, said Shanghai does not have enough experienced IT employees to analyze global market trends.

Statistics released by China Human Resources Market Shanghai, under the Shanghai Municipal Personnel Bureau, revealed that the number of software engineers, electronic engineers and marketing managers of IT businesses still rank as the top three employees most sought after by Shanghai firms.

According to Lu Min, vice-director of the market, said computer experts with PhDs and two years' working experience in a foreign country were highest in demand.

Professionals with a good knowledge in the cutting-edge global software market could also expect a deluge of offers from companies.

A recent survey showed more than 60 per cent of domestic IT businesses in the city lacked software and related professionals.

Shanghai has more than 1000 companies currently in the IT sector.

And statistics of the office also showed that Shanghai will need 50,000 IT professionals at the core of the sector by the end of 2005.

The city has launched a series of projects to entice more overseas professionals to work in Shanghai by sending recruiting delegations to the Silicon Valley in the United States and holding job recruitment fairs in Singapore and Hong Kong Special Administrative Region.
