Hi,

I really want to work in China within a marketing role. I have a friend already in Hohhot who is looking to open a Pizza restaurant and wants help setting it up. I have a Master degree (distinction) in strategic Marketing and diploma form the Chartered Institute of Marketing and 10 years of experience, so i think I would classify as an expert.

I am wondering how difficult would it be for my friend to get accredited as an employer of foreigners ? how much would it cost and how long the process takes?

Is it possible to get a Z-visa without employer sponsorship?
