If Chinese passport holders need visa to work in Hong Kong


If Chinese passport holders need visa to work in Hong Kong?
I am a student, holding Chinese passport. Now I am applying to an internship program in HK, but I was noticed that "Due to the short period of the internship assignments, we are not able to sponsor visa for all internship positions." So just wondering if the Chinese passport holders need visa to work in Hong Kong?

Unless you have a HK identity card, then you must have an employment visa to work in HK.

Yes they need work visas. Internships are usually viewed as temporary jobs so it's not unusual that the company won't sponsor you a visa. Employers would want longer period of stay within the company to maximize the visa application.
