HR firm upbeat despite slump
In spite of relatively slower economic growth in 2012, executives of leading human resources service provider FESCO Adecco remain upbeat about the company's prospects because of positive signals from China's central government.
The company has been emboldened by the report of the 18th National Congress of the Communist Party of China, which said the country's development is still "in an important period of strategic opportunities".
"In the coming two decades, there will still be rapid growth in China. As industries expand, demand for human resources will also remain robust accordingly," said Jiang Tao, deputy manager of FESCO group, at the human resources forum held by FESCO Adecco in Shanghai on Dec 3 to mark the company's 10-year anniversary.
