2020大中华薪资指南.pdf

There has been great prosperity as well as hardships in the industrial and economic conditions in China, Hong Kong, and T aiwan in the past year. The tourism and retail industries have been aected due to the sharp decrease in the number of tourists. However, the digital, technology, and startup industries have been highly active and have increased their demand for talents. Hong Kongs employ- ment rate has dropped due to political factors and the decline has been particularly prominent in the tourism and retail industries. The manufacturing and logistics industries in China also struggled while healthcare, pharmaceuticals, nance, and the insurance industry bloomed. One of the reasons for the decline in 2019 was the global economic environment. Fortunately, the overall economy is still able to embrace 2020 with positivity. In 2020, “technology” will be the key factor inuencing the development of all industries. Articial intelligence (AI), big data, Internet of Things (IoT), blockchain, and e-commerce will contin- ue to drive key trends in development. There is a high demand for talents with related skills in these sectors and such outstand- ing talents will be able to take the initiative in the labor market. They will be the support in companies development of new technological applications and digital transformation. Cindy Chen, General Manager of Adecco Taiwan and South Korea said: “As a member of the workforce, you should not turn your back on emerging technologies. You dont have to learn programming languages but you need to understand the impact of technology on your industry and accept new digital systems. It is dicult to survive if you dont understand new technologies and tools in a highly competitive environment, where numerous companies embrace digital transformation. As business management becomes increasingly complicated, corporate leaders are advised to open their minds and learn about digital tools. They should also understand the unique dierences in how people from dierent generations think. The digital transforma- tion of companies can only be achieved through cooperation.” Alice Wu, General Manager of FA T alent (a professional recruit- ment brand under FESCO Adecco) said, “Middle-aged talents face the most diculties when technology drastically impacts the corporate work environment. As articial intelligence advances, it will gradually take over the human workforce responsible for repetitive tasks. Experienced middle-aged workers should start considering whether they might be replaced and how to search for a new lifestyle if they are replaced. For example, in a factory that uses machines for automation, human laborers and machines will nd a way to coexist. Some tasks will be taken over by machines while human laborers will be responsible for maintaining the machines and managing procedures. T o put it simply, talents with management skills will remain competitive in the job market. In addition, individuals in key roles that help companies with their transfor- mation will retain their advantages in the job market regardless of future changes.” “Articial intelligence, e-commerce, big data, and blockchain will continue to drive business growth in 2020. These trends do not only reect a change in skills requirements for future jobs in companies but also shortage in local talent.” said Ms Janet Pottinger, Managing Director Hong Kong and Macau at the Adecco Group. Due to the rapid changes in workplace, Pottinger advised young people to maintain a high standard of perfor- mance. Companies in Hong Kong may continue to operate with their usual practice. However, in order to maintain their compet- itive edge, they have to plan and reshape their business in the digital age. We sincerely wish companies and talent to open their minds and embrace change. We do not need to fear the changes brought forth by technology. On the contrary, we should use technology to add value to ourselves, expand our horizons, explore our potential in all areas, and let technology help us achieve our career development and new business management heights.

In addition, Hong Kongs geographical advantage allows many local professionals to serve as their companies human resources managers in Asia Pacic. Professionals with extensive work experience abroad are in high demand as a result. Also administra- tion professionals are advised to strengthen their knowl- edge on operations of other departments to enhance their competitiveness. Hong Kong Inuenced by the U.S.-China trade war, recent political issues in Hong Kong, and Brexit, both employers and employees remain conservative towards local business and marketing development. Also, companies have reduced the number of employees whereas salary level has remained stagnant. Some foreign companies choose to get in touch with professionals and customers before setting up operations in local market. It has increased the demand for business development professionals. There is a rising demand for e-commerce professionals who have combined skills in digital and traditional marketing.Candidates who are seeking for sales and marketing jobs should put more eort on their resume, to show their specic data (KPI).
