Event Background
Taiwan is facing a labor shortage as a result of the declining young population growth, and the Taiwanese government has launched various initiatives to attract international talents to come to Taiwan to work to aid this problem. As a Taiwan-based international career platform, Cake is on a mission to bridge talent distribution across regions, bridging countries facing labor shortages and countries with numerous high-quality talents.
However, working in Taiwan as a foreigner comes with various challenges. From navigating the competitive job market to adjusting to the local working culture and overcoming language barriers. In between this, Cake aims to provide a space where professionals from international backgrounds can gain insights and build a professional network through a community of international talents in Taiwan.
