olemanoman1950 Posted March 15, 2005 Report Share Posted March 15, 2005 When I go back I am going to see what it takes to be an Immigration Officer. I sure would not mind working there. Link to comment
John & Hai Yan Posted March 15, 2005 Report Share Posted March 15, 2005 Well if we don't get the visa I think I'll apply for a job over there. Maybe it's one way to guarantee your SO gets an approval. I just gotta learn a little more Mandarin and Cantonese Ni how..Nee hau...Knee haw...Ni who...Ni hoa...Ni hao...Ni hao...I think I'm getting it now! Link to comment

BobandNicole Posted March 16, 2005 Report Share Posted March 16, 2005 Plus a year experience at the consulate/embassy level processing visas. So they're looking to poach workers from the UK/Aussie/Canadian consulates??? Told my wife about the job, she was interested until they got to the experience part. She's too busy playing expat's wife to actually work. Link to comment

pingme Posted March 16, 2005 Report Share Posted March 16, 2005 I find the following necessary qualifications rather interesting, and a bit amusing: - Familiarity with fraud patterns indigenous to China.- Management will consider nepotism/conflict of interest, budget, and residency status in determining successful candidacy. - High school graduate. i have never heard of a job positin taking into account nepotism! www.dictionary.com has as its definition:nepotism: 1) Favoritism shown or patronage granted to relatives, as in business.2) favoritism shown to relatives or close friends by those in power (as by giving them jobs) So if I read their job requirements I get the impression they want a high school graduate, who is familiar with the various ways to do things illegally in China. I am sure they could find such applicants cheaply at the local prison. But i guess those are the ones who got caught, and they are only interested in the ones who have been able to evade the law, or know how to scratch the local police backs. The comment about nepotism, i really cannot figure out. Does it mean that you will get the job if you are a close friend of someone in management or does it mean that you will be considiered for the job if you can arrange for nepotism (getting favors) for the job assignments that you will be asked to do? either way, this confirms my theory, that the legal sharks that are "working" outside of the embassy to help all those poor souls who get screwed are in fact sustained and profit from the "workers" or i should say the incompent workers within the embassy. it is also interesting, that we as US citizens are required to prove beyond any doubt a bonafied relationship with our loved ones. we are in fact assume guilty of visa fraud unless we can prove otherwise. but we are to view and assume that every Visa Officer is absolutely honest and fair, especially in the face of so many cases where they have not been. in my mind, they are guilty of incompetence, lazyness, and in working together with the outside sharks, until they can prove to me otherwise. i can also see why Guangzhou wants to keep all the immigrant visa business for themselves and not allow the other consulates in on their racket. They have such a successful business with the local sharks, why would they want to give that up, or spread the wealth around the other consulates? Link to comment
