QOTW: Can I Get A Hong Kong Work Visa With No Degree?
Posted in Employment Visas, Musing, The Hong Kong Visa Geeza /
An old chestnut this question which comes up time and time again about getting a Hong Kong work visa with no degree – albeit this time in the context of a technical apprenticeship undertaken straight out of senior high school.
QUESTION OF THE WEEK
I moved to Hong Kong from France one month ago.
I came here together with my boyfriend who has started to work here (we are not married, so no dependant visa!!).
In France I was working for Company A as a customer service agent. I actually also got a job at Company A here in Hong Kong before I arrived here.
But I don’t have a university degree. I did my A-Levels in France followed by a 2,5 year apprenticeship in my niche and after that I worked there for about 2 years.
What are my chances to get the working visa, without holding a University degree?
