If you find a company that sponsors your Z-visa they can ask to void the 2-year requirement when applying for your Employment License. They just have to give good reasons why you are especially qualified. If you do everything legally you don't need an agent and a lot less than 1000RMB.

Just that you don't know them doesn't mean it doesn't exist. I know at least 2 people who got employed 100% legally and without the "help" of an "agent" without the 2 years experience and without lying about it. One in Beijing and the other one in Shanghai. Both also never faced troubles because of "policy changes", despite staying in China during the Olympics, the Expo, the Asian Games, etc....

I'll be in the same position a few months down the road. But I know of a few people who have taken up employment in Shanghai and they had ZERO work experience beforehand. No employment during school, no working in the pub during the summer, nothing. They're working in the real estate sector at the moment and they had no problems getting the Z visa.

Take the advice of Schnitz. The employer will "find" a reason why you are the only candidate. Save your money.

My company took care of that so you should let your company do that too. Meaning all visa expenses payed by them.

Didn't have 2 years full-time working experience. I guess my company really wanted me here don't they?

stump and chaneyt have hit the nail on the head, I think. Basically the bottom line is that it's random and takes a bit of "edit" and "creativity" sometimes.
