The professional foundry manager for the R&D department
The professional foundry manager for the R&D department
The engineers' quality and sense of the semiconductor area are very strong, and most engineers are proactive and willing to learn new things. It is very comfortable to be a manager or technical leader to lead the project.
The job loading and stress are very high for a manager level to handle a project. The endless job assignments are always coming to your desk, no matter day or night. There is very little time to consider other things, such as family, friends, and social relationships.
Don't hire a manager who worked for a foreign country for a long time and doesn't understand the culture of Taiwan and TSMC.

TSMC Interview Experiences
Technical Manager
I had five phone interviews. Only one interviewer was located in San Jose; the rest of the four were located in Taiwan, HQ. After all were passed, HR told me that I passed these interviews. The last interview was with the HR Director in San Jose, CA.

The interviewer asked some basic questions regarding Finite Element theory, such as: * How to select the element type * How to deal with nonlinear problems * How to deal with stability conditions

In short, there aren't too many surprising interview questions. Most of them can be answered clearly if you know yourself well. The interviewer asks questions in a relaxed, chatty manner.
