Finally, the group of media representatives visited the Chengdu Human Resources Service Industrial Park, a unified complex that centers around the allocation and recruitment of personnel services, a function that becomes increasingly important as new businesses are founded and the younger generation starts to enter the workforce. One special company inside the human resource service industrial center is dedicated to working with people with disabilities, helping them find a suitable job and a career, so they can find their rightful place. Many of the staff in the company, do themselves have some sort of disability. People are our most valuable resource, and companies like these that can help everyone find their dream job will help strengthen the bond between Chengdu and Chongqing, especially now that traveling between the two cities is faster than ever before.
