I applied this job when I was at the senior year of my master study. The job title I applied for is process integrated engineer in Hsinchu, Taiwan. They don't really need you to wear formal on the day of interview but most of the people did. After the reception I wanted for a long time for the interview because there was so many people. While waiting for the interview , I've done the English exam and also scholastic aptitude test. The one who interview me was a department manager. The interview started with a self-introduction and then the interviewer will go through your files and ask some questions. After that, he basically introduce how do they work in TSMC.
