Hi,

I have a company offering me long term employment in China. They have never hired a foreigner before and are asking me to do research about the process.

What do I need to know?
Should I ask for F visa or Z visa?
I have heard many people say that I can work for pay on a F visa, is this true?

I will be based in Beijing. So can this process be done if I am already in China? And can you please recommend me any visa services in Beijing?

Thanks in advance.
