从凌晨的广州白云国际机场出发，中转埃塞俄比亚，历经近20个小时后，吴海鹏落地贝宁共和国最大港口城市科托努，开启了他在非洲的外派之旅。 吴海鹏毕业于中南林业科技大学，在今年通过校招进入到一家国有企业，担任驻非翻译。随着"一带一路"倡议的提出，越来越多中国企业将目光投向充满 潜力的非洲大陆；而一些像吴海鹏这样的年轻人，也通过校招、社招等途径前往非洲"淘金"。 金九银十校招季，新一轮的秋招正在火热进行，外派非洲依旧是不少人"心动的offer"。外派非洲需要满足哪些条件？真实的非洲务工体验是怎样的？中国 企业在非洲的建设又如何？我们尝试用数据来回答这些问题。 外派非洲，有哪些要求？ 想要去非洲工作，可不单单是下定决心漂洋过海这么简单。 对于吴海鹏来说，普通一本毕业的背景在他入职的国企中并不拔尖，HR和领导的"特别关注"让他有着不小的压力。从害怕被"放鸽子"到担心专业水平不 足以应对驻非的工作，是吴海鹏也是不少求职者的心路历程。 为此，我们统计了驻外之家平台外派非洲岗位的招聘要求，看看想要收获这份高薪工作，求职者需要拿出怎样的简历。 从类型来看，我国企业外派人员驻非洲大致集中在公司管理层、技术人员、商务市场开发人员以及 ...

当同事见到我在长假旅行登记表上填了"乌兹别克斯坦"的时候，这样问我："乌兹别克斯坦究竟有什么呢？" 他们或许只是为了找个话题，并不期待多少正经的答案。但我发现，我确确实实地被问住了——关于这个国家，我似乎是如此草率地确定了它作为长假目 的地，但直到临出发的前一日，我的脑海里仍然没有一张经典、合适的影像来代表它。我试图说服自己，这也是一个经历过革命、独立和工业化的现代国 家，但是稍不留神，我的脑海里又只剩下沙漠、绿洲、骆驼、低矮的房屋、以及喉咙的干渴感。 所以，当飞机从西安起飞，底下的大地以肉眼可见的速度趋于荒凉的时候，我开始准备这一篇笔记。我想起在2022年《来点旅行又如何》里，我引用了村 上春树的《老挝到底有什么？》他如此回答：就算这么问我，我也无法作答，我不正是为了寻找那个'什么'，这才要到老挝去的吗？这个回答如今看来也 充满了灵气——我想要的，正是一个能变成画面、声音、气味，留在我脑子里的真实的"什么"。 中亚是一个陌生的邻邦。要想看一个中国人对此地有多少了解，只要看他知道多少历史中的名字。如果有人能提到准噶尔、浩罕和阿古柏，表明他对中亚 和中国在近代的纠葛已有所了解；而如果有人谈到花剌子模和玉龙杰赤， ...
