Beijing challenge is helping me thrive

Madeleine Leewellyn, 22, is an Indonesian student at the University of International Business and Economics in Beijing.

Since 2016, I've been interning at jingjobs.com, a free bilingual platform that helps young people find career opportunities in China. Over time my monthly salary has grown from 1,000 yuan to about 10,000 yuan ($160 to $1,580).

I'm the fourth generation of a Chinese family. My great-grandparents were from Hong Kong, so my family speaks Cantonese and a little bit of Mandarin.
