In China the desire to be taller is high (excuse the pun), despite people's genetic make-up. It's a desire driven by the sheer volume of folk competing for partners, promotions and prime job offerings, where any advantage is sought in order to get a foot in the door. And with the vast numbers of job seekers competing for positions, recruiters behind those doors can afford to be picky. The word on the street is height means rapid advancement through the ranks. Many young professionals hold the common belief that taller people have more opportunity for promotion in the desperate climb up the corporate ladder.
