Executive jobs in asia pacific china dubai singapore hong kong

Dear Mr. Smith,

It is now 4 months since I mailed 2,500 letters with your executive job search firm. I have just accepted a regional posting in Singapore as V.P. Marketing with XXXXXX (Fortune 500 corporation). I am still interviewing for 2 further positions, one based in the US and the other based initially in London and thereafter in Moscow. However, I am most interested in executive jobs in Asia Pacific and the Gulf, and in particular Singapore, Dubai, China and Hong Kong, and have accepted the offer in Singapore. My cash salary is US$175,000 with significant bonus potential from stock options and yearly performance bonus. Thank you for your career change advice and guidance throughout.

Dear Mr Smith,

I am pleased to inform you that I successfully concluded my international executive job search out of Asia. One of the companies we had targeted (XXXXXXX, in Switzerland) offered me a position as their General Counsel in their headquarters in Zurich, Switzerland.

The offer was very generous and I signed with them last week.

I wish to take this opportunity to thank you again for your valuable input and for your support in my executive job search.

Best regards

Dear Martyn

Sometime ago I started a search for a new executive job in Asia using your services. I just wanted to take this opportunity to give you an update on the outcome of that search. The whole process took about 6 months from start to finish but I must confess to not paying full attention to it as I was working on a freelance contract at the same time in Jakarta and wasn't following up as much as should have been.

During April / May this year I received 3 offers of employment and have now accepted one as a Regional IT Program Manager for an Australian steel company. The job is based in Kuala Lumpur and covers the implementation of a new system across all the Asian countries incl. China.

I have been very impressed by the service offered and would (and have!) recommended you to other friends I know who are looking for a career change.

Thanks to you and your team. Very professional and supportive.

Best regards

Hi, Martyn,

Job search is going very well. There are many positive responses to our letters. There are also many interview opportunities. I really have the opportunity to explore and decide what I really want. I might take one position with a Venture Capital/CFO role.

Thank you again for your help.

Regards,

Hi Martyn,

Just wanted to inform you that I have signed a contract starting June 1.st 2010 with a company that was on your list.

In general I can tell you that from the 3000 letters we sent out I received 6 positive feedbacks 4 out of Germany, 1 out of Malaysia and 1 out of Singapore.

After we sent out the letters on Dec 11t. all of the 6 companies sent me a positive feedback already about mid of January.
The lead in Singapore was the first but was also the first to die, because the company filled the vacancies internally. I new it before the headhunter.
Malaysia was interesting but to far off from my profession. He wanted me to do business development. Also dead in Jan.
Left me the 4 in Germany.
I had the first round of interviews with them in mid of February.
All went very well. After the trip I had already made a ranking of jobs and locations.
The most interesting one went sour in mid of March, also this company filled the vacancy internally. Both the CPO and the Head of HR admitted that this is not the right decision but they had to made it because they got pressure from their US organization. They wanted to have someone from the US in that position not a german from HQ.
2 of the remaining ones offered different, but highly interesting, jobs towards end of March. Therefore I flew back to Germany, after the ash cloud passed, in April. I took the time to visit all remaining 3 again, all of them wanted me to talk one more time to the top management.
By beginning of May I had 3 draft contracts in my hand.
One company wanted to sent me back to Hong Kong as CEO of their Asia operations. Sounds great, but the package did not fit at all for this region of the world. (some companies just do not know how expensive life can be outside of Germany)
One company recalled their draft due to internal issues. I know the reason and I can understand why they did it. Never the less the CEO stays in contact with me. In case the situation changes he wants to come back to me. In the meantime his partner out of the US took over this job as interim manager.
Left me finally with one where I singed the contract. If they can keep up with what they have promised the job will be not bad and is well paid for Germany.
Let see how everything develops.

Thanks again Martyn for the help you provided. I was able to land a new job with your help. With a company I had not even thought about before.
Doing everything by myself I never would have come across the companies who offered me a contract.
As you mentioned in the beginning, it only needs one with a good contract, what became true at the end.
It took 5 month from sending out the letters to finally accepting the offer. Deciding right after the first meeting, I could have cut the time down to 3 month. Not bad in the current economic situation around the globe.
