As global industries increasingly prioritize cross-border expertise, higher education institutions play a vital role in connecting emerging professionals with international market demands. National Taiwan University (NTU), in collaboration with CBtalent, recently hosted its inaugural international talent career fair. The initiative brought together 20 enterprises spanning finance, manufacturing, information technology, electronics, and trade, establishing a centralized venue designed to address multinational recruitment needs.
Supported by regional student associations representing Indonesia, Vietnam, Thailand, Malaysia, Myanmar, and the Philippines, the event drew over 300 international candidates from 37 countries, facilitating more than 450 interviews and corporate networking sessions. The opening assembly, led by NTU Associate Vice President for International Affairs Jun-Hao Lee, was attended by key institutional partners—including the National Development Council, the Ministry of Education, the Taipei Employment Service Office, and Talent Taiwan—alongside diplomatic representatives from the Indonesian Economic and Trade Office, the Manila Economic and Cultural Office, and the Thailand Trade Office.
This career fair represents a milestone in institutional career development framework design. Moving forward, NTU aims to continuously leverage academic and professional networks to link international talent with industry pipelines. By cultivating structured career opportunities and enhancing employment access, the university remains committed to supporting a globally competitive talent ecosystem and fostering a resilient professional environment for international scholars.
