You have to get Z to get in the country in most cases

What happens if you take a bum job to get Z and then get offered one you want 3 months later

If you break the contract while on Z, do you get blacklisted or what?

I did this in my first job in China because they treated me awfully.

I just bailed and went to work at a uni. Since I wasn't physically taken to the police station my working visa was still valid and I worked at the other place on that original visa. Then, because it was a university with much guanxi, I had no problems getting a legit visa with the uni the next term

It really depends. To get it to transfer properly you need a release and recommendation letter from the first employer for the second employer to covert your res permit over to them.

There is usually a breach clause in the contract, and the clout of your second employer, as Larson mentioned, also comes into play.

Fact is, you wont know until the situation is over.

The notion of a blacklist is similar to the illogic of

And there are legitimate grievances (e.g., misrepresentation or exploitation), but this OP's premise is a caprice defined by bum and one you want. Professionally, this is treated contractually by probationary periods that aren't particularly generous to Party B, but that's the nature of positions with lower qualifications.

How would anyone confirm the existence of a blacklist? It's a little Santa Clausy.
