Warning: things change VERY fast in China and my information may already be outdated!
Yes, it depends on the job nature. There is a work permit for "cultural and scientific personnel" (I got that one, the Expert Certificate, as I was a school administrator), one for reporters and one for other categories, the latter two with names that I am not too sure about.
The company is supposed to settle the permit. If they are unable to, they are actually legally not permitted to hire foreigners and you should not work for them.
For the Expert Certificate, you need at least a Bachelor's degree and 3 years of working experience. I am unclear about the rest.
