Q: Anyone had experience to have advertisements in SH People's Square?

People post their advertisements in Shanghai People's Square for marriage?

 

Wonder anyone did it and the results.

 

Besides, they should have their own real pictures without Photoshop effects on their adv.

Yes, it's a well-known wedding market place : people comes with a paper, with pictures, a description of who they are and what they want. It can be the person itself, but most of the time, it's the mom or the dad of the person to marry. Think of a dating website in real-life, with mommy filling-in your profile and picking your dates. What can possibly go wrong, mom knows best Do they find love ? Well, they might find a suitable partner according to mommy criteria, that's one result. About love, I guess that's an optional but welcome side-effect of the whole procedure.

I saw this in Nanjing, next to one of the gate of the big downtown public park. It seems to be a common sight in Chinese cities.

A:Nobody can tell you that! You could look at no-response-time in two ways: 1. 'Nobody is interested in your CV and hiring you ...'; or 2. 'Never, ever stop sending your CV to the daily posted job openings and simply disregard no-replies thingy!' It's wrong, to expect replies from the Chinese advertisers of a new job openings, 'cause Chinese don't behave same as western recruiters by replying: "Thank you for your job application. Unfortunately, you weren't selected at this time. We'll keep your CV on record and if new opportunity arises..." or something in those lines. So, the only remaining choice is no. 2. Looking for the new (non-native E.T.) position in my time in China was like a daily part-time job.  Good luck! -- icnif77
