Losing hope to find a job in Taiwan

davidantolinserna

Good morning.


My name is David, I have been my last year and few months studying Chinese in Taiwan. Since almost the beginning of my studies, I have been trying to find a job in Taiwan with no success.


I speak spanish, english fluently and chinese (level B1).


I have been trying in all the websites that I know, Linkedin, 104, indeed, so on...

I have only been call for an interview 1 time and I wasnt selected, I dont know why, because they are not willing to give me feedback about it. (I already asked and my message was read and ignored).


I have applied with CV written in english and CV written in chinese, both with no result,


Im losing hope to find a job in here, so I will have to come back to Europe.


Does anyone has any advice to find a job? How did you guys did?


My work experience is in the social media world, working for "Youtube" in a team in charge of quality control.


Thank you all!

@davidantolinserna There may be many applicants with your skills so the competition is tough. Also unless they need your skills specifically why hire a foreigner?

One reason may be xenophobia. The Taiwanese may seem nice but not underneath.

Unless you have skills not found among locals, why hire a foreigner?
