Overseas training sweetens Daimler's offer packages
Easier access to global positions has consolidated multinational companies' advantage in the competition for talent in China, said Juergen Hartwig from auto giant Daimler AG, which was picked as one of the top 30 best employers in 2014 in a recent survey.
About 10 percent of the company's Chinese new staff members, including technicians and management trainees, will get annual opportunities to work at Daimler in Germany, said Hartwig, executive vice-president of Daimler Greater China Ltd.
"We increased the number of Chinese working in Germany by 100 percent in 2014," he said, adding that they were sent there to receive more training, as well as to help the companies in Germany and the US make better decisions involving the Chinese market, the world's largest automotive market.
