Question
hey.  I was wanting to know of any particular websites out there people should look at if they want a job in China.

thanks


Answer
Hi Evan,
Yes of course in these days of China's booming economy there are no end to ads for jobs and opportunities in the P.R.C. But sorting through the rubbish is a different matter.
It really depends on what kind of job you are looking for. I can't personally offer you any industry-specific job sites outside of teaching English, which seems to be the most popular job for westerners who want to work in China.
Try Dave's ESL Cafe for teaching gigs.  Do a search for That's Beijing, That's Shanghai, That's PRD and City Weekend (Beijing, Shanghai) for ad sites and community forums that will also point you in the right direction.
Take care...
