I am not sure the older we are, the better job opportunity we will have. One of my friend's hubby just be laid off. He is 50 and at direct level. The worst part of is that he signed non compete act ,so he can not work all the major companies in his industry. Very bad situation.

I do not believe our skin color is the reason that we can not climb up the career ladder.. I think the weaknesses of our Chinese immigrants are soft skills and leader ship skills. And we are not outspoken enough and self promote our contribution to the business. A great leader will give everyone opportunity as long as you prove yourself |

I do not know ur work enovioment and ur office cululture. It looks like you might have negative experience in office. What I can tell u is that I never criticize our Chinese culture and my value system is still very tradition. I always have conversation with my peers at lunch table to explain how our Chinese thinks and how chinese will behave different in differently. Last, I do not like to hang out with my in law family because there are the difference of value and system. I try to avoid them as much as I can. My best bff are mainland Chinese not white girls. What i do differently is that I learn to adapt and play politics. And I am not a shy person. I spoke my mind and push back things that I do not think right. And I use opportunity to self promote my achievements. Also I alwYs show confidence and positive attitude in the office, this is very important. 90% of time in office you need act if you want to get notice or move up.if I want to move up, I won't read how Canadian think! I go to buy a book about office politics and communication skills. Understanding general human behavior is more important than understand one particular race. And one of our senior vp from sear us is a authentic mainland lady. I do not know how she get there, but I knew she has strong cOmmunication and politic savvy from her speech and her behavior. My point is simple , you got to act. Not all white people are at senior level. Please compare the behavior of senior people with non management employees, you will know the race or culture play a very small part in determination of promotion. |

我孜少可以早三年当上个full time buyer. 我brother in law 曾经是我上班公四里的high profile vp. 我当时进拿公四是自己在m'onster ca投的简历。后来拿个30k contract job.他都不知道我进了公四,要是我有优势,应该是可以拿4.5万的full time analyst. 我家公家婆更牛,成天和我税认是senior vp or CEO, 我早工作,从来就么问过。 money 优势,就不要提了,就一个字,cheap.我老公没networking,也不不会交即。我的白人朋有比他多。 妹妹早点休息,鸡同鸭讲没用 |
