The major job search website for engineer openings in Taiwan is 104, i.e. http://www.104.com.tw But if you're looking to work in a specific industry, like electronics manufacturing which Taiwan is best known for, then you might want to go on each individual website of the big names, e.g. acer, asus, htc, foxconn, auo, etc. They have almost all the current vacancies (located in either Taiwan or China) posted in the career section where you can submit your application too. Let me know if you need further help.
2 :
probably 104.com is the best bet for what you are looking for. You might be able to score a lecturer position teaching engineering courses in English if you are a native speaker at one of the universities with a masters under your belt. You really should try and get on with a multinational manufacturing company in a western country and get sent out to china or taiwan to do the quality control programs at the factories. If you apply in country you probably wont get a cushy well paying job, but more of a drone-like management robot job. It will REALLY help you to have mandarin speaking and some reading/writing, but if you want to deal with only english speakers you will have problems in the manufacturing area, but you might do better in the educational field for operating in English. you can try your luck at tealit.com and at forumosa.com for links to job ads and help wanted stuff. Good luck!

Can I enter Australia with my South African Passport but leaving from Taiwan?
Can I enter Australia with my South African Passport but leaving from Taiwan?
I am currently a citizen of South Africa and Taiwan (By Birth). I am going to study in Australia, which means I would need to apply for a student visa. I can only apply on ONE of my 2 passports (They both level 1 for the visa so it makes no difference in the difficulty on obtaining the visa). My question is this, Will I be able to go into Australia IF I applied my student visa on my South African Passport BUT I do not fly from South Africa but from Taiwan instead? Thus it makes my journey Taiwan ----> Australia, then at passport control I hand them my South African passport which has my visa to enter that country. Is that possible? Your help would be greatly appreciated! ^^ PS: Going to study in University of Queensland~ Soo excited!

Language Enrichment Programs in Taiwan?
Language Enrichment Programs in Taiwan?
Hello everyone, I am currently planning to study in Taiwan and preparing for SY 2009-2010 admissions. The schools in Taiwan requires you to be able communicate, write and listen in Chinese. Although the Taiwan scholarships offers LEP (Language Enrichment Programs) for the students to learn Chinese (am I right?), how can other international students learn Chinese IN Taiwan to be able to be eligible for the applications in the universities? Are there any institutions/schools offering similar courses in studying Chinese? Where can I find them and how do I apply. Also, how much is the payment? Thanks in advance!

Here's an important question that will help you narrow it down: How many foreign languages do you know? If the answer is zero, you may want to consider a country which speaks your native language. But, don't fret. I know a lot of people who knew almost nothing about the main language of a country they did a foreign exchange to. If you go this route, consider taking language classes before you leave (independently or through your school or a nearby school), or taking language classes while in that country. If you do know a foreign language or two, even just a bit, go to a country which has that language as its first or second language. Also, how long have you been away from your family and friends? Do you get homesick easily? If you haven't been away from them for long, or you do get homesick easily, you should go to a neighboring country, or one on the same continent; or, you could go to a country that is farther away but you won't be gone for as long. One last thing to consider is this: how open are you to seeing different religions, different people, and different ways of life without instantly pressing your beliefs upon them? Any country you go to which isn't your own will have people vastly different from you. Are you willing to learn about new people and things without trying to change them into who you are? :) Personally, from your list, I'd pick Japan. Not only is it on a different continent, it's pretty much the technological and fashion capital of the universe, but those are some things I'm interested in. Look into a little history and culture about each of these countries before you make your final decision!!!

I think the best thing you can do is to decide what is important to you. Ask yourself questions like: -Do you want to learn a new language? -Do you want to get to know a completely different culture and adjust or you just want something with a little more familiarity? -Do you want to go to a place that has excellent weather conditions? -Do you want to go to a country where most people do speak English? LANGUAGE/CULTURE: I would definitely recommend a country that you do know something about and you can speak its language at a certain level. Even if you don't speak Spanish, it is a good option because that language is pretty easy compared to the others and most Spanish universities offer several classes in English. This way, you would have a good opportunity to learn a new language because don't expect too much from a language that you are not familiar with at all. I don't think anybody could learn more than some words in a semester. That was my experience at least. If language learning is not the reason why you want to be an exchange student, Denmark is also a great option since everybody speaks perfect English there. It is a very nice country, by the way. I'm from Hungary and I can tell you Hungarian is a very difficult language just like most of the languages of the other countries you listed. I have met many exchange students and although they felt great here, I kinda felt that they were a little lonely and sometimes they were afraid to communicate with others. They would have loved to learn the language but that is impossible in only one academic year or even less. If you have any questions, feel free to message me because I might be able to give you some advice if you have specific questions since I have visited or lived in a lot of countries you have on your list.

My suggested budget for a fairly comfortable life in the Taipei area will be like this: RENTAL for a standard single student studio suite near National Taiwan Unversity or National Taiwan Normal University: around NT$11,000 per month; near National Chengchi University NT$9,000 per month; near National Taipei University (Sansia Campus) NT$6,000 per month. ELECTRICTY, WATER & INTERNET ACCESS around NT$2,000 per month. MEALS, eating out and including fruits & drinks around NT$10,000 per month GOING OUT around NT$4,000 for 4 outings/one month, including transportation in the great Taipei area. * * * * The average salary for a new college graduate in the Taipei area is around NT$28,000 per month.

Personally, I spend around 25,000 a month, including: - 10,000 on rent and utilities - 10,000 on food (I eat out all the time) - 5,000 on clothes and other stuff

NT$30,000 (or US$1,000) is enough for you to live in Taipei for a month.

Help with teaching in Taiwan?
Help with teaching in Taiwan?
In my 4 years here in Taiwan I have been both a teacher and a tutor for everyone from 5yr olds to 30~40 something business men/women and in that time I have never had a student ask me something that I couldn't easily find an answer to or figure a way around answering them (only if it is something that they shouldn't know ie 7-9yr old boys asking about sex). But this time I had a group of 6th grade students (boys and girls) ask me why do people wear underwear. Now this is the one thing that I have been asked that I didn't know what to say, and I have put them off for a few weeks now but they are persistent in getting an answer. Actually I am sort of curious my self. 1. Why do people wear underwear? 2. Is there a good answer to give them? 3. Is there some website or book about the history of underwear haha. 4. Has anyone else had any crazy questions from their students that stand out in your mind. I have told them that they should ask their parents or grandparents, and tried passing them off on other teachers but they keep coming back to me for an answer. I want to ask for serious answers but I don't think that there can be any for this question.

Why do people wear underwear? To keep the stains off my jeans and onto something easier to replace. (OK...gross image). Actually, there is a great article on wikipedia about this. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Undergarment Great. Here I am at work scrolling through wikipedia and get to the pics of underwear. Glad nobody saw that because few people here speak English and it would be hard to explain that I'm trying to answer your question and not some perv. My craziest story of a student wasn't from a question, it was from his answer. We were doing living and nonliving things. I put the question "name 3 living things near a lake." He wrote: 1) fish 2) tree 3) frog OK...good answers. No problem there. "Name 3 nonliving things near a lake." He wrote down three things like rock, water, and something else. He erased them and put: 1) Plastic bag 2) Knife 3) Teacher I was too afraid to mark them wrong and I knew he knew what I meant anyway. :-) (Don't worry...he was a good kid. Made me laugh a lot).

I think that's all for comfortable. If you don't wear under-wears,won't it feel uncomfortable?

IF there is a hole that you don't find at pants. and no underwear.what a terrible. lol

Best possible answer: To keep their GG warm! It's kinda crude and may elicit a variety of responses from horror to uncontrollable laughter, but at least it's honest!

Is this a good essay and 1st paragraph and thesis?
Is this a good essay and 1st paragraph and thesis?
The education of a human being begins at birth and continues throughout his or her life. Since the early 1980's, North America has been "behind" Japan, Taiwan, and China in the subjects of math and science. As a result, America's competence in mathematics, science, and technology is at great risk. We should have math, science, and reading homework beginning in kindergarten because children need to face challenges at an early age. Our expectations for our children should be much higher(Bempechat 501). . According to statistics, the North American education system lacks a firm background in mathematics and science, thus school systems in these areas should challenge students to a higher degree. For a high school student, self esteem is essential.

Maybe you can condense your thoughts to help make your objective clearer. Here's an example: Education is a lifelong endeavor. Statistics show that since the early 1980's, Japan, Taiwan, and China have outperformed North America in math and science, putting us at a severe technological disadvantage. To alleviate this problem, we should raise expectations and challenge students at an early age [CITE]. Exposing kindergartners to reading, math, and science will increase academic proficiency and provide students with the confidence they need for a successful learning experience.
