David Owens, managing director of HR Partners in Sydney, says his recruitment company has done more business in Asia in the last six months than it did in the previous nine years. "Australian HR professionals who have worked in the region in the last ten years have been effective, popular and have set good benchmarks. In Australia they work successfully across a diverse cultural bandwidth and in Asia are quite mindful of the local ways of doing business," says Owens.
Owens says that Asian employers: "Are looking for demonstrable competencies in the key HR specialty areas as well as strong generalist HR management skills. Asian-based companies are looking for nothing more than Australian companies, but nothing less either."
