Introducing the Beijing Ayi Survey
★
Now in its ninth year, the Beijing Ayi Survey was started by our colleague Tobal Loyola. After asking around about ayi salaries and getting wildly diverse responses, he realized there was a need for a community resource that could provide a basis for comparison.
So we’re once again conducting the ayi survey to collect some much-needed information on an essential part of your life in Beijing. To take the survey, scan the QR code in the poster below. Help us help you get the most accurate and up-to-date information about ayis in Beijing.
*Be sure to turn on your V** to take the survey.
