BEIJING, Sept. 12 (Xinhua) — More than 2,700 people have applied for 16 executive positions of the centrally-administered state-owned enterprises (SOEs) open for public competition this year, the State-owned Assets Supervision and Administration Commission (SASAC) said.<\/p>\n
The 2,745 applicants more than doubled that of those applying for last year’s 22 posts.<\/p>\n
Of this year’s available posts, six received 200 to 300 applicants for each.<\/p>\n
SASAC said the positions included three general managers, 10 deputy general managers and three chief accountants from different industries. They covered electricity, metallurgy, electronics, chemical engineering and trade firms.<\/p>\n
China FAW Group Corporation, China Baosteel Group and China Southern Power Grid, all ranked among the world’s top 500 companies, were also recruiting.<\/p>\n
SASAC also said 383 applicants, 12 from overseas and four from Hong Kong, Macau and Taiwan, met the qualifications. They have been notified to sit for a written exam to be held soon.<\/p>\n
Most qualified applicants have post-graduate degrees and are aged under 45, while 140 currently are heads of enterprises. In addition, 69, or 18 percent, have overseas working or study experience.<\/p>\n
In 2003, SASAC started to recruit from both home and abroad. The agency hoped such managers could help improve the competitiveness of SOEs in the global market.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
