The Hainan Provincial Talent Office recently released plans to recruit 1,530 high-level talents from home and abroad to work in 101 organizations and companies in the province.
Twenty-four employing units directly managed by the central government and the Hainan Provincial People's Government, which include Hainan University, Hainan General Hospital, and Haiken Group, will offer 953 posts. And 77 employing units in cities and counties in Hainan will provide 577 posts.
The talents recruited will mainly work for infrastructure construction, ecological civilization construction, rural revitalization and civil affairs to accelerate building the China (Hainan) Pilot Free Trade Zone (FTZ) and exploring the establishment of a free trade port with Chinese characteristics, which was announced by the central government on April 13 at a gathering to celebrate the 30th anniversary of the island becoming a province and a special economic zone.
Publicity for the drive will take place through various ways such as the internet, job fairs, and overseas high-level talent introduction organizations. Related departments will communicate and cooperate with famous domestic and overseas universities to introduce talented graduates into the posts.
Hainan also announced a recruitment action plan on May 13 aimed at finding 1 million talented workers by 2025. The plan is seen as key to implementing central government directives to provide a welcoming environment for individuals who can contribute to making Hainan an international FTZ.
A shortage of talent has been a problem for Hainan, according to government officials at a news conference last month. To counter the problem, the island has introduced a series of policies, such as offering free housing and providing rent subsidiaries, to attract domestic and international workers.
