Providing recruitment, staffing and HR services to innovative engineering companies in the People's Republic of China
In 2008, Airswift began operations in the People's Republic of China to support the Chuandongbei Gas project, opening an office in Chengdu, Sichuan to provide a local presence. In 2010, we expanded our presence to Qingdao, where we supported the Gorgon LNG project.
Airswift has since expanded across the country, opening an office in Shanghai to help more organisations in China find and hire the top technical talent worldwide.
