Coming to an end.
A young man from Hong Kong who was hired to share his experience of working and living in the Mainland has not only broadened his horizons, but also established a network of contacts in the Mainland, enhancing his competitiveness.
Zhou Pan, a Hong Kong youth who is on a business trip in Suzhou, is one of the first graduates to be hired to work in the Mainland under the “Greater Bay Area Youth Employment Plan”. He is working for Mingqijia (Shenzhen) Information Service Co., Ltd. The marketing department is engaged in the promotion of brand new media accounts, and is also responsible for the integration of marketing solutions and synergy business. It is one of the 12 employees hired by the gas company under the plan.
Zhou Pan said: "I worked in cross-border e-commerce in Hong Kong after graduation. I noticed the rapid development of the Internet industry in the mainland. For more than a year, I have learned to use the mainland's health code, fresh food delivery, takeaway, taxi and other mobile phone software to make the required services and life more convenient, and even during the epidemic, takeaway and fresh food delivery are still guaranteed. These experiences are all It has greatly enhanced my good impression and impression of the mainland, which is civilized, developed, livable and friendly. Moreover, compared with the previous office work in Hong Kong, the work here is more diversified, and I can contact more businesses and cities. It has broadened my horizons, and I have met many mainland friends and established a network of contacts."
The plan opens up opportunities for Hong Kong youth to work in the Greater Bay Area. Graduates hired under the plan can receive a monthly salary of no less than HK$18,000.
Zhou Pan said frankly that under the epidemic, he has received much better treatment and benefits than most of his classmates.
It turned out that in addition to the basic monthly salary, according to the "Guangdong Province Employment and Entrepreneurship Subsidy Application Handling List (Revised 2021)", he was also given a monthly living allowance of 1,000 yuan.
In addition, the company also provides housing benefits, medical benefits and other living allowances.
In addition to being an ordinary wage earner, Zhou Pan also has another identity.
Since he has created the largest social group in the project in the early stage, he often shares information about the project on social media, which allows him to recognize thousands of Hong Kong youth who are interested in working in the Mainland, and the community will also hold offline gatherings and participate in activities together to exchange ideas.
He happily said that during birthdays, New Years and reunion festivals, his family is not around, he just spends time with this group of young people of the same age, he will not be alone, and he can quickly integrate into mainland culture: "Actually, the living environment in the Bay Area is the same Hong Kong is no longer different."
Zhou Pan believes that the state and the SAR government have vigorously promoted the development of the Greater Bay Area in recent years. This plan has allowed Hong Kong youth to catch up with this ride, accumulate work experience, and create a bright resume, which will help them find opportunities in the Greater Bay Area in the future. Absolutely helpful.
There are also youth groups who hope that the SAR government will launch Plan 2.0 as soon as possible to optimize employment conditions, including increasing the amount of subsidy, so as to encourage participating organizations to hire more job seekers, broaden the participation age group and join professional skills positions, etc., so that more Hong Kong young people can be accepted benefit.
