First of all I would like to thank CTCI foundation for giving me the opportunity, and for considering me as a talent that can benefit Taiwanese companies. I think activities like this are very important for foreign students like us for many reasons, because it gives us the link between recruitment agencies (ITSC) that have information about visas, and job openings and are interested in connecting us with companies, and it also gives us a direct insight with Taiwanese companies, their general information their managers, employment information and benefits. I really appreciated the time and thought that is put into this activity, because all the companies we visited were expecting us, and were prepared and happy to introduce the company to us in English which made us feel welcomed and special. For me, the highlights of this event was the visit with ITSC, which is a recruitment government agency with specialized people interested in connecting us with job vacancies to which you can make questions and they are happy to help. We visited many companies, in the high-tech industry. Since my major is engineering, for me this is different from other recruitment activities which generally only have sales and business opportunities. Between the companies we visited were GPM, Phison Electronics Corporation, A-Pro Tech, Linkau plant and Delta Group. From the companies we visited, the ones I liked the most were the Linkau plant and Delta Group (since my Master’s degree is in sustainability, and my bachelors is Civil Engineering, these two were the most related to my professional skills and knowledge). Some highlights of other companies that I liked were that in Phison Electronics we could meet the owner, whose story was very inspiring. Also, besides introducing us the company, they had a foreign engineer explain us the company, and gave us information about vacancies and employment benefits the company offers. CTCI foundation made us feel really welcomed, and took us to eat at very nice restaurants and we stayed at very nice hotels. Overall I think all the activity was well thought, organized and made us feel grateful of being selected. Thank you very much for selecting me, and for the patience and thought of organizing this event for us.
