About us: It is the Human Spirit that moves the company
Top Gun has been in the advertising and marketing business since 1986. Our rate of growth is derived from our attention to human resources policies and recruitment strategies. We examine a large number of candidates as many as 6,000 for employment each year. Based on this experience we have developed strong recruiting and training systems, as well as organizational activities, to find the best employees and provide them with the best quality of life possible.


We are a service company; therefore, our most important resource are our human resources. We have put serious attention into our human resources ever since
 
we started our business. We started our business with a task force or labor level adequate to managing our taxi-based advertising projects. Most of our people did not possess a bachelor's degree. Our only solid resource was employees with heart and drive to be the best.

In late 1990, Top Gun needed someone to manage the accounting system. We consulted with Price Waterhouse and decided to hire a senior accounting manager (MBA with 5 years experience). It was our turning point. This human resource move led us to increased efficiency and a better system of business. Accounting is the basis foundation for every system of the company. Updating our accounting by hiring the right employee has had a big impact on our company's work procedure on a daily basis.

In 1991, we made another big move. It was an event because we hired our first employee who possessed a bachelor's degree. This was critical because he was very talented graduate from a top business school, which was very controversial among the operating level. They believed that a new hire with a bachelor's degree would not be tough enough to handle the hours and workload. However, he turned out to be our first Special Projects Manager and initiated and established our Human Resources Department in 1992. We changed our company's environment to fit the most talented persons. Since then, all our new hires have possessed at least a bachelor's degree. And a few years later, the rest of the world would call this process, reengineering.

In 1994, we hired another top level executive, this time from an ad agency. This was another big step for our client services department. The company started to decentralize and the office began to take on a truly professional atmosphere. At this point we were finally able to attract graduates from the United States.

In 1996, we developed new concepts in human resource policy. We implemented a "home and office" concept: work professionally, but feel at home. We had many breakthrough projects that year just because we had continued to improve our human resources. Our training and development programs are unique. We initiated our "individual development program," which was tailored to fit the needs of each individual in our company. We started our "Romance of Three Kingdoms @ Work" seminar, which we believe will be one of the world's best human resource seminars in the future. Our company's philosophy is centered on this concept: Good Heart, Work Hard, Struggle to Enjoy Life.

In 2001, everyone in Top Gun can play golf, the majority of employees listen to classical music or even play a musical instrument, some have learned to sail, some can scuba dive, most play chess, some do bird watching and star watching…and much more. This is life and this is Top Gun. We are moving toward a new era of international challenge.
