All that changed three years ago, when a global chip shortage and rising geopolitical tension turbocharged growth at TSMC.
TSMC set up the Newcomer Training Center inside a sprawling science park in the city of Taichung in central Taiwan in 2021.
“After many years, what we want to do is to gradually reduce assignees [and] increase the local hires.”The Newcomer Training Center opened in 2021.
The soaring demand, particularly for chips that power AI, has created a shortage of talent for the semiconductor industry.
Countries compete for this talent.”TSMC’s Ho said a shortage of talent is one of the main challenges the company faces.
