About this ebook
In 2010, college junior Stephen Balaban moved to Beijing, China for an internship at a business incubator. He returned eight months later with amazing stories, helpful tips and a desire to share his story. He's one of the many American expatriates who have discovered that China with its fast growing economy and international community is the new hot spot for gutsy job seekers. Consider yourself one of those?
Read about Stephen's experiences and get the inside track on living and working in China. You could waste countless hours submitting your resume to job listings, like Stephen did. Learn how to target your job or internship search more effectively. This eBook also explains how Chinese business culture is based on relationships, or guanxi. In this eBook, you'll get a close-up view of China through Stephen's lens. And in between his entertaining tales, like the time he sang a tribute to Mao Zedong over karaoke, you'll get some valuable information that will hopefully get you to China.
