The blue Residence Permit For Foreigner to study doesn't allow you to work in China, however, you can do a part-time job, if no police check you, you won't have any problem.

Can I get hired by a company and they help me change this into a workable permit? and I study and work at the same time？ I am only taking sunday classes and would like to work full time. What visa/permit would the company need to get me. Thanks Peter.

Foreign students are not allowed to work in China. You can find a company to hire you, however, it is impossible for the company to change your blue Residence Permit For Foreigner to study into a workable permit. Now it is waste of time for you to do the work permit. You just find a job and work, hold the blue Residence Permit to live in China. Many foreign students do it like this.

As peter replied, if no police check you, you won't have any problem.

Thanks for the information Mr.JOHNNASH . Would I be able to cancel the student one and obtain a new visa/leave the country. I don't want to do anything illegal. And would like to work at a multinational company full time.

Yes, you can cancel the visa and apply for a tourist visa, then exit China and apply for a work visa in your country.
