Working in HK

17 years ago
I am trying to move to Hong Kong but I do not have a job already lined up for me there.

Is it possible as a British citizen to travel to HK without an kind of visa set up; find work within the 6 months I am allowed to be there visa-free, and then get a working visa whilst in the country, or do I need to get a job lined up and a working visa before I enter the country?

I'd like to be able to simply go there and find work and organise everything whilst there but I haven't been able to find out if this is possible. is anyone able to offer some advice on this subject?
