First of all, I would like to say thanks to whom make such opportunity for International graduate student in Taiwan to have a better understanding about job vacancies in Taiwan for their future career plan. Following, I summarize all my points of view about this trip: Invest Taiwan Service Center: providing some statistics about the number of students who applied through this channel also a number of successful applications, some descriptive analysis to categorize the existing positions, would be helpful for students to have a better understanding about the the job market. CTCI Cooperation: everything was perfectly scheduled for our visit. Although I’m not familiar with civil engineering field, the introduction of the existing technology and how they adopted with Industry 4.0 (My research field) was interesting Phison Co.: since I am working for data management, Yield enhancement and fault detection for ICT industry during my Ph.D. studying, I was expected that such a big company like Phison has great backup for data- driven strategy, especially they mentioned about Big Data management, however I found that Big data, Industry 4.0 and IOT are fancy words for showing up that they are employing the new strategy but in reality still traditional system is working inside the company. From the business analytic points of view, Phison is a company which in close future will merge with another company, therefore collaboration with them is a bit risky. Hon Chuan group: sustainability and well transforming to the Industry 4.0 even for traditional Industry shows that for seeking a job is not necessary that looking for the High-tech industry, Hon Chuan has a complete package for all students from sales & marketing to power mechanical engineering, computer science or even biotechnology. Hiwin: I think Hiwin is one of the key component companies in Taiwan, however, due to our tight schedule, we didn’t have time to learn enough about this company, additionally some of their employees were not really professional to explain the details and return the answer to our question The most important thing I learned from this trip, stay optimistic for looking job in Taiwan, and improve my ability and skills.
