BEIJING, Oct. 25, 2016 /CNW/ -- Hainan Airlines Co., Ltd. has already started its 2017 worldwide campus recruitment drive with scheduled stops in Beijing, Xi'an, Sichuan province, Tianjin, Wuhan, Chongqing, Guangzhou, Boston, Berkeley (California), Seattle and Chicago. The campaign will run from October 15 to November 9 with the goal of visiting the campuses of leading universities and bringing on board highly talented individuals.

In light of Hainan Airline's accelerated global expansion, the carrier is in urgent need of top-level talent worldwide. This year, the global campus recruitment campaign is expected to bring on board a diversified group of talented individuals with specialization in marketing, finance, HR, aviation operations, aircraft and aircraft parts procurement, as well as aviation safety supervision, among other segments of the civil aviation industry, with the number of individuals to be recruited increasing to 500 from last year. Interview venues will be set up at the same time in China and in other countries as part of the worldwide recruitment plan. In the US, the recruitment schedule includes stops on both coasts and in between, visiting the top colleges and universities in four of the country's leading metropolises. Hainan Airlines plans to kick off campus recruitment in the UK in early November, with stops in the country's political and cultural center, London, and its busy commercial and trade center, Leeds. The carrier aims to create its own team of international talent, establish an international employee structure, and implement a global talent management strategy.

Hainan Airlines, a flagship company of HNA Group, abides by a human-centered development concept with an international focus, with the aim of encouraging and supporting the healthy development of each member of the airline's staff. Through the building of a young and talented team and an emphasis on enterprise-wide outbound communications efforts, entrepreneurship, and comprehensive talent training and management programs, as well as well-functioning talent acquisition and promotion channels, the airline offers its staff a wide array of talent development platforms.

Hainan Airlines, having operated a fleet of aircraft with an excellent safety record spanning 23 years, has, over the last few years, expanded its network to include over 700 domestic and international routes connecting more than 100 cities. Following the launch of international services to Boston, Seattle, Toronto, Chicago, Manchester, Berlin, Paris and Sydney, the airline plans to further expand the network by adding services to other international cities, including Las Vegas, Los Angeles and Melbourne, during the second half of this year. In keeping with its ever growing demand for highly talented individuals from all corners of the globe, the airline is committed to continually upgrading its talent management strategy.
