Are Overseas Returnees Superior to Us? 海归高我们一筹吗？

In China, there are many families send their kids to study abroad, because foreign education is believed to have advantages over our country’s, so when the overseas returnees come to job hunting, they are often being considered first. Does it mean overseas returnees superior to us? Actually, I don’t think so.

在中国，很多家庭送他们的子女出国学习，因为国外的教育被认为优于国内教育，所以当海归找工作时，他们经常被优先考虑。这是否意味着海归比我们高一筹呢？我不这样认为。

First, the ones who study abroad are no longer for the only purpose-study, they are often born in a rich family, so besides study, they want to travel more. What’s more, in a free circumstance, they may lose themselves, indulging in the pub. Without hard work, they gain less knowledge, who says they know more than us.

第一，那些在国外学习的人学习不再是唯一的目的，他们一般都出生与优越的家庭，所以除了学习，他们更想要旅游。而且，在一个自由的环境，他们可能迷失自己，沉溺于酒吧。没有努力学习，他们没有学到知识，谁说他们比我们知道的多呢。

Second, overseas returnees are less familiar with our market. The market is very important for business, the long term’s living in the foreign country makes overseas returnees hard to adapt to the native market, they know more about the foreign market. So we also have advantages over them, we are familiar with our country’s circumstance, we can make the decision quickly.

第二，海归对我们的市场不怎么熟悉。市场对于生意是很重要的，长期在国外的生活让海归很难适应本土市场，他们比较了解国外市场。所以我们也有优势，我们对本国市场熟悉，可以快速做决定。

Therefore, I think those overseas returnees should not be regarded as superior to us. Employers should treat all the students equally, giving them the fair chance, the one who performs better, the one who wins.

因此，我认为海归不应该比我们优先考虑，雇主应该平等地看待所有学生，给予他们公平的机会，谁表现好，就招聘谁。
