Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Co. (TSMC), the world's largest contract chipmaker, launched a large-scale campus recruitment campaign on Saturday, aiming to hire more than 8,000 professionals this year at a time when the local semiconductor industry has aggressively expanded production capacity to meet global demand, with many companies competing for skilled workers.
According to TSMC, the company has offered competitive compensation and the average annual salary for a newly recruited engineer with a master's degree is expected to hit as high as NT$2 million.
TSMC said the company is eyeing talent in a wide range of areas, including electronics, electrical engineering, optoelectronics, physics, materials, chemical, information engineering, information management, industrial management, financial management and human resources.
In addition to the engineer job openings for applicants largely with a master's or a Ph.D. degree, TSMC said the company will also welcome high school graduates and associate degree holders to join the company as production technicians.
Newcomers are expected to work in TSMC's production bases in Taoyuan, Hsinchu, Taichung, Tainan and Kaohsiung, the chipmaker said.
In addition to attractive compensation, TSMC said it will continue to offer training to newcomers to help them boost their skills and adapt to their new working environments. In 2021, the chipmaker set up a training center for new recruits.
