You are not allowed to work in any other company except for visa approval. When you have an internship visa, you can get paid.<\/p>\n<p>There are many ways to find <a href=\"https:\/\/dictionary.cambridge.org\/dictionary\/english\/opportunity\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">opportunities<\/a> in your industry. As China is a booming economy, many students have found <a target=\"_blank\" class=\"inside_link\" href=\"https:\/\/www.hiredchina.com\/articles\/tag\/opportunities\/\" title=\"View all posts in opportunities\">opportunities<\/a> to show themselves in their own country. For example, students from the Central Academy of Drama often look for roles in Chinese films. Students at Beijing Language and Culture University are often asked to support international companies that are localizing their content.<\/p>\n<p>You can look for opportunities on the Internet by watching advertisements in University cafes, or through websites such as the latest classified advertisements released today. You can also participate in social activities. Another way is to ask your university professors, because they will have industry ties that can help make an introduction. You can also contact the company yourself.<\/p>\n<p>If you speak Chinese, it will greatly enhance your appeal to opportunities. So if you&#8217;re going to stay in China for a while, it&#8217;s a good idea to concentrate on learning Chinese at the beginning, and then you can apply your Chinese skills to future practice.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Many overseas students in China often want to know whether they can work part-time or part-time while studying in China.
