Common Problems in Introducing High tech Talents in Shanghai

01

Professional and job mismatch

High tech enterprises mainly refer to technology fields such as computer, information, software, engineering, machinery, medicine, biology, and pharmaceuticals. It is generally recommended that students majoring in science and engineering give priority to employment in high-tech enterprises, as their majors and job positions will have a high degree of matching. Generally, management positions in humanities will be more suitable. If your major does not match the position you are applying for, you will need to provide additional technical qualification certificates.

02

Salary and social security base do not match

High tech base enterprises generally have higher salaries, and whether it is a bachelor's or master's degree, the social security base should meet the requirements for talent introduction and settlement. It is forbidden to intentionally increase the social security base for the purpose of settlement, and the salary increase should be reasonable.

03

Change job

High tech enterprises are evaluated every three years. If you resign midway, as long as your social security is continuous and seamlessly connected to the next company that is also a high-tech enterprise, you can continue to accumulate. However, after submitting for review, do not resign easily before obtaining your household registration, otherwise you may not be able to obtain it.
