The 14th Job Fair for Returned Overseas Talents was held at the Shenzhen Convention and Exhibition Center in Futian District on Sunday, attracting over 3,300 jobseekers and over 100 enterprises.

The job fair, organized by the Shenzhen Municipal Human Resources and Social Security Bureau and Shenzhen International Talents Exchange Center, is an important event to welcome the Sixth Shenzhen Talents Day, which falls on today.

The enterprises at the fair were mainly high-tech and innovation-driven ones involved in semiconductors, computers, new energy vehicles and biopharmacy, offering more than 2,000 vacancies. Enterprises funded by returned overseas talents like Appotronics, EcoFlow and Haplox attracted many jobseekers, with 90% of them holding master’s or doctoral degrees.

At the job fair, EcoFlow received over 100 applications that are highly matched with their job postings. The company hoped that local governments can organize more job fairs to expand recruitment channels for enterprises.

Appotronics had vacancies for talents in tech, marketing and supply chain, and also found many qualified talents via the fair.

Data showed that Shenzhen has so far attracted more than 190,000 returned overseas talents to work in the city.
