Xiamen in Southeast China's Fujian Province has recently been honored with two new accolades, once again ranking among the top 10 in the "Amazing China — The Most Attractive Chinese Cities in the Eyes of Foreign Talents" and being included in the inaugural selection of "Employment-friendly Cities".
On September 28th, the survey findings of 2024 "Amazing China — The Most Attractive Chinese Cities in the Eyes of Foreign Talents" were released at the opening ceremony of the Hangzhou International Human Resources Exchange and Cooperation Conference in East China's Zhejiang Province. Xiamen once again ranked among the top 10 cities.
The initiative conducts a quantitative analysis of foreign talent evaluations based on job satisfaction, daily life convenience, and environmental friendliness. This analysis gauges the overall attractiveness of Chinese cities to foreign professionals.
According to the Foreign Talent Attractiveness Index of Chinese Cities 2024, foreign professionals are most concerned with a city's economic development and living convenience, while expressing the highest level of satisfaction with the social environment. Xiamen has established a multi-tiered, extensive, and robust talent policy system. The strength of these measures places it at the forefront of peer cities in China, and they are consistently open and applicable to foreign talent.
Xiamen has been included on the first batch of "Employment-friendly Cities" list, distinguishing itself from 50 candidate cities at the recent "City-Enterprise Collaboration for Employment Friendliness" launch event in Beijing.
The "Employment-friendly Cities" assessment measures cities' performance in driving high-quality employment through five dimensions: industrial development, employment services, career potential, quality of life, and talent ecosystem.
Xiamen secured its place in the first list through a series of measures, including refined employment policies, improved public services, harmonious labor relations, and an integrated talent service chain, which have garnered acclaim at the national level.
