Many people are complaining that it's hard to find jobs, but traditional industries in central and southern Taiwan are actually facing manpower shortage. Some business owners believe that new visions need to be created in order to captivate young employees' interests.

Working at least eight hours a day, Lee Shi-lin, who studied IT back in college, joins the corporate internship program, which pays NT$22,000 per month.

The job at a busliner is demanding.

She enjoys the line of work that she does, even though the salary may be higher in traditional industries.

Also in the same program, Liu Yan-ru, who had business education, has now been promoted to full-time status.

According to their superior who trained them, now when young people choose a job, hard work is not a major factor.

The long hours and boring job content of the assembly line in traditional industries have scared away young people.

Some traditional industry businessmen believe the only way to attract yong employees is to create a vision for the industry.

The statistics of the job placement center in Central Taiwan, during the second quarter, there were 3,137 job openings in labor work but still 2,364 vacancies are yet to be filled.

Traditional industry businessmen suggest that young people start their first job in the industry and learn enough skills before switching to other jobs.

Or they will face the threat of unemployment after reaching middle age.
