How to find a job in China as an Expat?

（帮你的外国男友/女友/Partner找工作）

I spend half year helping my expat boyfriend look for job, there are only 3 of them arranged interviews.
However, most popular job vacancy you can find it everywhere is: English teacher.
But my boyfriend is not native English speaker, he doesn’t have teaching experience and he is a IT guy.
At the present, we are still looking for jobs.

I am putting all the resourses together to have a clear map on mind:

1.Chinese Newspapers in English

·Beijing Today
·China Daily
·Global Times China
·Shanghai Daily
·South China Morning Post
(haven't found any jobs.)

2.Networking

In China, the most valuable and effective way is relationshiop (Guanxi). I asked friends, friends’friends, relatives, colleagues, strangers online, etc.
(haven't found anything yet.)

3. KeyChinese job sites

·51 Jobs(Chinese)
