Case Study
案例分享
01
A large tech conglomerate faced challenges in hiring a Japanese market researcher familiar with the Japanese market. The ideal candidate held only an associate degree, which did not meet the bachelor’s degree requirement for a work visa application. To resolve this, the company’s HR team sought our assistance. After a thorough analysis, we designed an upgrading plan for the candidate and provided detailed application guidance. As a result, the foreign employee successfully entered the country within one month and obtained both a work permit and residence permit within two months, addressing the company’s urgent staffing needs promptly.
02
A Chinese-American citizen encountered difficulties while working in China due to visa and household registration issues. The client had not canceled her Chinese household registration (hukou) and had been using her Chinese identity for employment, leading to challenges renewing her visa. With our guidance, she completed the household registration cancellation process and prepared all required visa documents. Ultimately, she secured a five-year work residence permit, resolving her employment and residency concerns. The client expressed high satisfaction with the outcome.
03
