I theres one issue that has the potential to remain
a universal challenge this year, its the shortage o
particular skills. According to our survey o employers
across Asia, almost all (95 per cent) believe thatskills shortages have the potential to hamper the
efective operation o their business or department.
Furthermore, in skill-short areas 66 per cent o
employers said they would consider employing or
sponsoring a qualified overseas candidate.
So despite easing growth across Asia in the second hal o2011 ollowing the allout o the Eurozone debt crisis, it seemsthat skills shortages remain a real threat to us all.
This is likely because Asias overall economy remains resilientand will continue to sustain hiring activity across the region.
Indeed, in a global context Asia is a stand out perormer.According to our survey o employers, in the next 12 months64 per cent o employers expect business activity to increaseand 41 per cent expect their permanent staf levels to increase.
In terms o salaries, on average one in three employers acrossthe region gave salary increases o between three and six percent in 2011. A urther 30 per cent gave an increase above sixper cent. The remaining 37 per cent ofered an increase oless than three percent or no increase at all.
China was the stand out in terms o salary increases in the region, with51 per cent o employers reporting an increase o between six and tenper cent and 21 per cent ofering an increase above 10 per cent.
When they next review, 35 per cent o employers across theregion intend to increase salaries between three and six per cent.A urther 32 per cent will increase above six per cent. But 27 percent o employers intend to increase salaries less than three percent and six per cent intend to ofer no increases.
According to our survey, 54 per cent o employers intend toaward a bonus to more than 50 per cent o staf, down 10per cent year-on-year. Instead, the use o benefits is rising.Benefits are now ofered by 81 per cent o employers, up rom78 per cent year-on-year. Health is the number one benefit,ollowed by lie assurance, pension and car or car allowance.
Singapore and Hong Kong in particular are casting the netwide when a suitable local applicant cannot be located,
although there has been a strong reduction in expatriatepackages. Those that were on expatriate packages have beenconverted to local packages and benefits such as housing andliving allowance have been incorporated into the base salary.
In other trends, there has been an increase in requestsor candidates with strong bilingual skills and experienceworking overseas, while good candidates are once againstarting to receive multiple ofers, particularly those that candemonstrate career stability and workplace loyalty.
Japan continues to recover rom the March 2011 earthquakewhich resulted in a hiring slow down and market challenges,but as the country recovers we are seeing some strong hiringor mid to senior candidates.
Overall, we are optimistic about the market in 2012 as theAsian economies continue to outperorm some o theirwestern counterparts.

CHINAGlobal economic conditions are a challenge or Chinas banking industry,with most international banks reducing their human capital. However Chinaremains in a strong position as many banks are shiting their investmentshere to balance their risk globally. Many middle size banks continue to
expand and big banks are still hiring.
Given avourable government policies and the shit in ocus o internationalbanks to China, candidates in ront oice are sought to urther expandmarket share. Due to business expansion and the lessons learnt rom theglobal inancial crisis regulators, banks are placing additional ocus on riskand internal control.
Private equity/venture capital remains a very hot sector in China, withsenior to executive candidates with in-depth knowledge o the industryhighly valued by employers. Demand is also evident in the inancial leasingsector, which is creating a number o new opportunities or candidates.
Candidates are open to new job opportunities however they ace strongcompetition rom overseas banking candidates who are willing to relocateto China or work.
Candidates expect higher salaries due to increasing CPI and will considernew job opportunities i their internal salary review does not meet theirexpectations. Most employers are willing to pay 15 to 20 per cent abovemarket rate to attract the best talent.
Banking and inancial services employers demand a high standard oproessionalism in candidates. Fluent English language skills and a goodunderstanding o Chinas banking regulatory commission requirements willadd value.
For sales roles, employers seek candidates with strong networks and asolid client base. Relationship Managers are also sought. Employers arewilling to oer attractive packages to secure the right talent in these areas.
HONG KONGStrong market sentiment in early 2011 was replaced by a bumpy secondhal dominated by global market turmoil, the European sovereign debtdeault scenarios, stock market crashes and rogue trader scandals.Regulations rom the year beore, such as the Dodd-Franks Volcker rule,hit the markets. Due to Hong Kongs strategic position as the birthplaceo the RMB bond market and one o the busiest global IPO centres, weelt the eects o the slowdown more gradually this time.
Exciting highlights o the past year include the growth in the certiicateso the deposit market and the rapid developments in the syndicationmarkets. We also saw growth in commodities with the introduction oRMB denominated gold contracts and commodities clearing in the HongKong Exchange. The authorities in Hong Kong and Beijing are workingclosely or the internationalisation o the Renminbi.
While we remain cautious o a slowing Chinese economy, the growingnumber o irms requesting to undertake Chinese IPOs will create workon the advisory side in 2012. With debt markets recovering, new roleswill be available in the structured inance and ixed income space. Givenglobal economic conditions, demand or wealth preservations strategieswill remain high.
Major banks have inalised top to bottom reorganising o their structure andhave identiied key areas such as private banking, wholesale distribution andasset management to support core investment and corporatecharacteristics. On the product side, commercial and government papers,commodities such as energy and its derivatives and equities products andelectronic trading oerings will remain areas o demand.
Early in 2012 we expect candidate activity to rise ollowing lower thanexpected bonus levels. This will create critical replacement requirementsor the remainder o 2012. While a cautious economic climate will keepsalary levels under pressure, most inancial institutions intend to balancetheir market growth targets with key cost control measures.
An increasing number o newcomers are expanding operations in Asiaand this will continue to uel a shortage o specialist skills. We expect tosee salaries increase with the guaranteed bonus element to attract keystrategic hires within the growth institutions. Modest salary
improvements or support sta are expected to be around ive to tenper cent year-on-year.
JAPANReplacement hiring and select upgrade hiring remains the eature oJapans banking market. With tighter headcount restrictions andadditional approval processes, most irms prioritise directly relevantexperience and skills. In particular, experience in the same role with a
competitor is valued so that candidates can ideally hit the ground running.
Despite global market conditions, demand remains in several areas inJapans banking sector. On the sell side, there is a limited supply oexperienced candidates or compliance, market risk, product control andproject management roles. There is also a shortage o experiencedbilingual line managers and sta in middle oice operations.
In ront oice, recruitment demand has been greater or roles in bonds,swaps, cash equity and equity low derivatives. There has been lessdemand or roles covering structured products.
In asset management, experienced sales people, product managers, RFPspecialists and investment managers/und managers are still in demand.Those with strong product knowledge and an established track record inmanaging client relationships and marketing oreign investmentopportunities to Japanese clients are in most demand.
Solid demand exists in commercial banking, particularly or relationshipmanagers with established client bases and a good sales track record aswell as experienced banking operations specialists.
In 2011 salary increases were relatively lat. Some candidates with skillsin demand changed employers to secure an increase and employerscompeted or the top talent with attractive oers. Moving orward,salary increases or new hires may be impacted i the number oavailable roles declines.
In the latter hal o 2011 we saw a greater industry-wide ocus on basesalaries since bonus expectations ell. However bonuses remain animportant part o a candidates overall compensation and are seen bycandidates as an indicator o how the company values them.
SINGAPOREThe market slowed considerably in the last quarter o 2010/11 as theEurozone crisis and oshoring programs created an overriding air ocaution or permanent hiring. In 2011, most irms turned their attentionto candidate attraction and the development o new and innovativeways to dierentiate themselves rom competitors. Given the highcompetition or a very inite pool o suitably qualiied and experiencedcandidates, this became central to securing the best talent over the year.
During 2011 we also noted increased interest rom oreign bankingproessionals looking to Asia, and in particular Singapore, or their nextcareer move.
Given the increasing deal low experienced by corporate inance teams,suitably experienced corporate inance/M&A proessionals, particularlyat the Associate and VP levels, are in greater demand.
Wealth management and private banking expertise remains an area o highdemand since many o the worlds major players are attempting to expandtheir market share and are announcing development plans in this sector.
With increasing ocus on capital regulations there is a growing demandor senior banking proessionals with strong regulatory and riskmanagement experience, in particular credit risk, portolio risk,compliance and economic capital.
Niche organisations specialising in structured trade inance, exportinance and project inance are experiencing growth, and needcandidates who have strong networks and proven origination andexecution experience.
While we did not see signiicant salary increases in these areas in 2011,employers did experience stronger cost pressure to keep salaries withinbudget. Expatriate packages are now rarely given. When they are given,the package is very basic.
Base remuneration also remains static with very little increase. Withlower bonus payouts across the board, total compensation packages aregenerally less than previous years, and there is an increasing trend
towards less cash and more stocks/options or bonus payouts.

To attract candidates,
salaries and bonuses are
increasing, particularly
for those with
professional recognitionand niche skill sets.
CONSTRUCTION & ENGINEERINGSECTOR OVERVIEW
CHINAChinas construction and engineering market continues to be driven bymajor infrastructure projects that support the oil and gas, clean energy,healthcare and retail industries, in addition to entertainment facilitiessuch as sports stadiums. While some projects have been met with
hesitation due to rising interest rates, the Chinese market continues tothrive in comparison to other world markets and companies are stilllooking to invest in new projects.
As a general rule, candidates who have strong exposure and understandingof the market in China are highly sought after. Those with specialistinfrastructure expertise within tunnelling, planning and geology are also inhigh demand. In addition, Engineers and Project Managers with exposureto the retail industry in China or Hong Kong are sought at all levels as newshopping centres emerge quickly in Chinas 2nd and 3rd tier cities.
Expatriate talent is once again an option for companies that are workingon major entertainment facilities. Such structures are new to China, andthus the shortage of local specialists has seen employers recruit expatriatesto manage the project and train local talent to manage future projects.
HONG KONG
Salaries in Hong Kong have increased slightly over the past year in linewith the increase in demand for skilled professionals. This trend is likelyto continue since there are many construction and engineering projectsdue to commence this year, particularly within civil engineering.
Two major projects, one a large tunnelling project and the other a bridgeproject, are likely to create high demand for Civil Engineers withexperience on complex projects. In addition, many developers based inHong Kong are seeking candidates to work on projects in Hong Kongand China. Candidates with strong language skills, in particular Mandarinfluency, will be highly regarded.
SINGAPOREConstruction in Singapore remains a very active market. The number ofrecruitment requests is high, not only in station and tunnelling work but alsoon water and building contracts both locally and abroad. The commercialand tendering sector on cross discipline projects is also busy.
Naturally this has led to an active engineering market, although growthhas also come through significant public sector investment in the areasof civil and water infrastructure. In particular, the expansion ofSingapores mass rapid transport system as well as environmental andwater projects have fuelled tremendous jobs growth and will impactSingapores economy in the next decade. As a result, we expect theengineering sector to be very active in the years ahead.
Skills shortages are evident for Estimators, Project Directors and ProjectManagers, WSHOs and Design Engineers/Managers. These skills shortagesare reflected in the salaries being offered by the majority of companies.Demand also remains high for infrastructure, rail and tunnellingprofessionals in the design consulting environment. Senior DesignEngineers, local-registered Professional Engineers and residentEngineers in civil, structural, mechanical and electrical disciplines aresought by employers.
To attract candidates, salaries and bonuses are increasing, particularly forthose with professional recognition and niche skill sets. But as organisationsrecover from the downturn, many are becoming more budget-centric.Downward pressure is placed on contractors bidding price in order to wincontracts and we note an increasing trend of project awards based on thelowest bid. Consequently contractors are looking for talent to fit into theirtender budgets. Expatriate packages are also declining.
Many employers are also offering additional benefits to attract and retaintalent. This includes flexible working hours and involving families in workevents, which is particularly accommodating to expats. Those organisationsnot recognising and rewarding their employees face a much higher risk oflosing their most valuable asset to a competitor.
In todays market, both employers and candidates are more informed aboutjob opportunities with competitors. While employers are increasingly willingto negotiate for certain roles, our advice to candidates in this market is to
move for the right reasons, not just salary alone. Employers are alsobecoming aware of the increasing number of candidates who plan torelocate, and the gaps this will leave in the market. When this gap widens,employers will need to reassess their recruitment and retention strategies aswell as their offers in order to attract candidates.

A skills shortage exists
for good candidatesto work on the large
number of projects
coming to fruition and
companies are starting
to compete globally forthe best talent.
OIL & GASSECTOR OVERVIEW
CHINALeading companies and operators in China have a number of new
projects coming up which is fuelling strong demand for oil and gasprofessionals across the board. This will lead to an increase in salaries,although it is difficult to predict the level of this increase until the globaloutlook becomes more certain.
Leading oil companies and shipowners are investing in their Chinaoperations and we expect to see increased opportunities in project andconstruction management, along with discipline engineering andinspection. The salary rates within this area are likely to remain stableduring the next year.
Downstream businesses are also paying more attention to the Chinamarket. This is leading to higher sales targets and increasing productlocalisation. As a result, commercial and business development (M&A)professionals and R&D specialists with overseas backgrounds willbecome more popular than in previous years. Salaries however are notlikely to be significantly increased partially due to the fact thatpetrochemicals companies are becoming more popular among
jobseekers in China.
Employers are faced with a decrease in the availability of seniorgeoscience, wells and C&P professionals. To attract these desiredcandidates, they are willing to pay higher salaries.
We have also seen a strong need for experienced project management,process engineering, piping engineering, machinery and proposalengineering specialists. This will remain the case as the majority ofemployers do not have enough people in these positions.
Employers are ideally looking for candidates who can demonstratecapacity and logical thinking, good communication skills in Mandarinand English and leadership skills.
SINGAPOREPermanent salaries increased across South East Asia over the past year,
which has brought rates back to pre-recession levels. This upwards trendis continuing in response to the prediction of a boom not onlythroughout this region but also throughout oil and gas hubs globally.This is starting to create a skills shortage for good candidates to work onthe large number of projects coming to fruition and companies arestarting to compete globally for the best talent.
While previously companies found repatriating candidates a successfulstrategy to attract and secure talent, this is now becoming increasinglydifficult since local candidates can secure attractive expatriate packagesin other regions.
Due to supply and demand, salaries continue to increase and remain at apremium for subsea engineering and project controls candidates as wellas senior executives and engineers with 20 years plus experiencethroughout South East Asia. The industry has identified a skills gapbetween engineers entering the industry and highly skilled professionalswith over 20 years experience who are potentially preparing to retire or
leave the industry.
As a result, contractors are now working at a premium and manypermanent employees are moving into the contracting arena based on thepotential to command higher rates. This in turn is also pushing rates up.
