Returnees refer to those who study, work and live abroad and return to China.

In general, people who go abroad to study, live and work for a period of time can be called turtles. However, not all international students are returnees. Under normal circumstances, people who come back from studying abroad can only be called returnees if they have two basic conditions. First of all, the study time needs to meet certain requirements. For example, most countries require to study abroad for more than one year before they can be accurately called returnees.

In addition to studying abroad, there is another kind of people who also belong to returnees, that is, they work and live abroad. The most typical ones are the overseas employees of the company or their own businesses. However, because there is no specific definition, in general, there is no uniform provision for specific working years and work experience.

In short, as long as you have lived, studied and worked abroad for a certain period of time, you can make full use of these experiences to expand, apply and use your knowledge, skills and horizons and contribute to the development of individuals, society and the country, then you can be called a returnee.

Some advantages of returnees:

1. Returnees can broaden their international horizons: in the process of studying or working abroad, returnees have been exposed to different cultures and ways of thinking, which have broadened their international horizons. This makes people more comfortable in dealing with transnational affairs and cross-cultural communication, and brings more innovative thinking and development opportunities for enterprises or organizations.

2. The ability of returnees to solve problems independently: In the process of studying and living abroad, returnees need to deal with various problems and challenges independently, such as adaptation to foreign life and academic research. This ability to deal with problems independently is also of great value after returnees return to China, which makes returnees more strategic and executive when solving complex problems.

3. Returnees can take advantage of their professional skills and knowledge: Returnees often receive higher education and professional training abroad, so that returnees have higher professional quality and practical experience in some fields. For domestic enterprises, the professional ability and knowledge of these returnees will help to improve the overall competitiveness.
