Shandong Heavy Industry Group has always regarded its employees as its most valuable asset. Standing at a new historical starting point, the Group will continue to focus on its "world-class" strategic goal and continuously improve the top-level design and institutional guarantees for talent development.

The high-quality and sustainable development of an enterprise cannot be separated from the solid support of talent. Since the launch of CNHTC's "Young Talent Development Plan," it has built a solid ladder for the growth and development of new employees, effectively stimulating the vitality and creativity of new forces. CNHTC will continue to thoroughly implement Shandong Heavy Industry Group's talent strategy, broaden development channels, and cultivate a fertile ground for talent development. We hope everyone will carry forward the fine traditions of hard work and unwavering determination of Sinotruk employees, and write a brilliant chapter worthy of the times and youth on the broad stage built by Shandong Heavy Industry and Sinotruk.
