The 28 firms are looking to recruit more than 1,000 people for a range of posts, such as production line workers, engineers, administrative personnel and salespersons, the bureau added.
A vice president's post with a monthly salary of NT$200,000 (US$6,509) is one of the more lucrative positions up for grabs, the bureau said, without naming the firm.
Chang Ta-chun (張大春), head of the Taichung City government's Labor Affairs Bureau, said that in addition to the VP post, H.P.B. is seeking a manager with a monthly salary of no less than NT$100,000, while more than 60 percent of the 1,000 jobs will offer monthly wages of up to NT$40,000.
