Hello everyone,

Hi Oi Moi,

Getting a job here in China is challenging if your degree is not in high demand. They already have many educated locals. Get some work experience in Malaysia first. You need to get a job offer, then need to apply for a work visa before you come.
By the way, you can't work as a nanny. I know many Filipino nannies cross the border to HKG and Macau every now then in order to get/extend their visas. Not like in HKG. Mainland China doesn't allow foreign domestic helpers. Sometimes, they get only ten days stay.

Hope this helps.
