The mini-app also allows you to calculate your work permit score and your classification (alternatively, you can use our online system, which we created when the new system was announced last year). This new rating was implemented in November 2016 and divides China's working expat population into three categories:
A: High-end professionals (85 points and above)
B: Professional personnel (60-85 points)
C: Ordinary applicants (below 60 points)
These categories are determined by your age, salary, level of
education, experience in your area of expertise, annual length of
employment, and Chinese level.
To determine your score, simply:
1. Click "我" Me, followed by "我属于" My classification.
2. Fill in your particulars.
2. As well as your education info.
3. And then some more ...
4. Once complete, your classification will pop out and look something like this:
If you would like to be informed when your application has been processed (approved or denied):
1. click "我" Me, followed by "我要绑定" I want to connect.
2. Fill in your information.
Now you can revel in being judged from the comfort of your own home. Unfortunately, the system is currently only in Chinese but an English version should be released in the near future.
