For China? Would I do it myself or find a job first and get the employer to arrange it? Also, how long to process?

Thanks

You need to find a job first. Then the employer will get you the necessary documents which you need to bring to the Chinese Embassy/Consulate to apply for your work visa. They will tell you what they would need from you. You MAY have to submit a medical, and maybe also a criminal record check. It all depends on where you will be going. Every region/city/province has its own regulations.

To get the visa? A few days. To get the documents? Up to a month. I am still waiting for mine and it's been 3 weeks.
