The 2016 Enterprise Visit organized by CTCI for graduate students was a complete success. During the trip, we had the opportunities to travel around Taiwan, visit historical place and most importantly, companies, the main purpose of the trip. To put into words what has been memorable and serves as a complete amazing new experience, I won’t go further without mentioning it was the first time during my journey in Taiwan that I got the opportunity not only to visit enterprise and see how they manufacture products but also to talk and discuss jobs opportunities with companies’ executives. I personally learn something special from each company and along the way that let me figure out where I can probably try to apply for a job opportunity. First the Linkou Thermal Power Plant that we visited first showed me interesting view on Taiwan energy system. Delta group appeared to me as a very innovative, technologically driven and devoted to save the planet. It was a great experience to get to see a worldwide known company working to provide long lasting solutions to the definitely crucial environmental issues we are facing in the world today. As one of the executive said, it is a very good workplace where ones can build an amazing career. The Phison Electronics Company draws all my attention based on the famous story of their chairman. Having listening to him and one of executives, I was left with the conclusion that it is importance in the world is inversely proportional to its size. The dynamic of one of their employees talking to us showed how it can be a good place to work. Later on, one the company that draws my interests was A-Pro. As an industrial engineer I felt in love with their system and already feel like working there. Galant Precision Machine Company appeared also very unique in its style with not so many employees yet providing high quality and managed to be successful. Many thanks to this program and CTCI Foundation, I can notice a good movement launched by Taiwan to attract foreigners to have a beautiful career here. This opportunity to visit Taiwan’s industries and know about their criteria to hire foreigners is a good push up given to any graduate here in their process of building a career in the Heart of Asia.
