Based on the past data on the approval of Hong Kong talents, we have summarized three key points that cannot be ignored and are related to the approval rate, namely high education, working background in famous companies, and industries in urgent need of Hong Kong. Let’s analyze it with everyone.
1. Highly educated talents from prestigious schools
Educational qualifications are included in the scoring criteria of the point system, and can add up to 70 points. This illustrates Hong Kong's thirst for highly educated talents. Therefore, a bachelor's degree is only the basic threshold for Hong Kong talents to apply. If the applicant has a master's degree , a doctoral degree, or even a background in one of the world's top 100 prestigious schools, academic qualifications + 30 points from the prestigious school will be added. The higher the academic qualifications, the higher the possibility of being approved as a Hong Kong talent.
2. Work background of famous enterprises
Although the comprehensive scoring system for talents only gives bonus points for working years, executive work experience and overseas work experience, applicants with a background of famous enterprises should not be underestimated. If you have worked in a Fortune 500 company or a famous mainland company, such as Alibaba, Huawei , CICC , ZTE , etc., the Hong Kong Advisory Committee will receive invisible bonus points during the review!
3. Hong Kong urgently needs industry talents
According to the talent list of the Hong Kong Talent Plan, these 13 talents can be added with an additional 30 points, and they must be the most urgently needed talents in Hong Kong. Therefore, in addition to meeting the score requirements of the comprehensive scoring system for talents, the industry in which the applicant works is also one of the important elements reviewed by the Immigration Department.
However, the talent list is just an extra point. In addition to the above 13 talents, if you are employed in information technology (IT), finance, architecture, education research, medical research, law, human resources, industrial manufacturing and other fields and have achieved results, the approval rate for outstanding talents will also increase.
However, it should be noted that not only those in industries that meet the talent list can apply for the Hong Kong Talent Scheme . As long as they can prove that they are good enough, Hong Kong welcomes applications from talents from all walks of life.
