You will work in smaller teams, enjoying more responsibility, and you will get plenty of client contact. Experience here is prized everywhere, making this a great career move whether you stay long term or return home. Outside of work, Hong Kong offers as vibrant a social scene as you will find anywhere, not to mention the opportunity to travel easily across the wider region.
