\nof new initiatives to attract and retain talent, as well as make the
\nelectronics sector an attractive environment to work in. Even as many
\nsectors scaled back in 2020, the electronics and semiconductor industry remains
\nresilient. It continues to create good job opportunities and offer a variety of
\nroles to shape the future of technology.<\/p>\n![](\"https:\/\/release.media-outreach.com\/release.php\/Images\/Thumb\/500x0\/120681\/Mr-Alvin-Tan.JPG#image-120681\")

\n
<\/p>\n
\ncurrently more than 2,800 jobs and training opportunities for the sector,
\nspanning the value chain from technical and innovation engineers, to process
\nand operations roles, and global supply chain roles. Companies in the industry are
\ncontinuing to hire aggressively into 2021, fueled by the acceleration of
\ndigitisation, disruptive new technologies, and cutting-edge devices from
\nsmartphones and wearable devices to driverless cars, which have semiconductors
\nat their core.\u00a0<\/p>\n

\nsemiconductor sector, SSIA will be championing a Semiconductor Communication
\nCampaign with Singapore Economic Development Board (EDB) to raise the awareness
\nof the semiconductor industry among the students, sharing about\u00a0 key industry trends and profile stories. There
\nwill be a job portal that provides the latest update and vacancies of the electronics
\nand semiconductor industry.<\/p>\n

\nkick-off at the launch of the second edition of Electronics Industry Day from
\n27 January to 28 February 2021. Organised by SSIA with support from JTC and
\ne2i, the Electronics Industry Day is a flagship event that brings electronics
\ncompanies and IHLs’ students together on one platform. Held virtually this
\nyear, it consists of various activities including a career fair, plant tours,
\nexhibitions by over 30 companies, and industry talks, allowing over 2,000
\nstudents and job seekers to learn more about the exciting career and internship
\nopportunities available.<\/p>\n
\n
<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n
\n“SSIA has launched different initiatives since mid last year to support
\ncompanies on their hiring needs. They include the new semiconductor job portal,
\ncareer fairs supported by e2i, school career talks, and the ongoing
\nProfessional Conversion Programme. The latest Semiconductor Communication
\nCampaign aims to highlight
\nthe critical role that chips play at the technology forefront, showcase
\nexciting developments, and profile young people in the sector. These stories
\ncreate excitement about the sector on social media and make students aware of
\nopportunities available in the semiconductor industry. We will continue to work
\nwith our partners in developing the talent pool for our industry.”<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n
\n
<\/p>\n
\ntalent attraction efforts, JTC is working closely with partners and businesses
\nto enhance the physical infrastructure for the electronics sector. JTC unveiled a 5-Year Estate Enhancement Plan
\nduring the inaugural Electronics Industry Day in 2019 to make Wafer Fab Parks
\nmore vibrant and conducive
\nenvironment for talent and companies.<\/p>\n
\n
<\/p>\n
\n
<\/p>\n
\nseries of physical enhancements will be rolled out across Wafer Fab Parks progressively from 2021 to 2025.<\/p>\n
\n
<\/p>\n
\n
<\/p>\n
\nThe
\nWafer Fab Parks will take on a new identity with rebranded
\nsignages by mid this year. It will feature wafer and integrated circuit designs
\nto bring out the unique identity of the estate as an attractive work
\ndestination for the sector. <\/p>\n
\n
<\/p>\n
\n
<\/p>\n
\nNew
\ncovered walkways and cycling paths for Pasir Ris and Tampines Wafer Fab Parks will be ready by 2023 to improve
\naccessibility and connectivity within the estates, and to nearby amenities and
\ntransport nodes <\/p>\n
\n
<\/p>\n
\n
<\/p>\n
\nIn
\nline with our City in Nature effort, JTC has collaborated with the National Parks Board
\n(NParks) to refresh the roads and
\npedestrian walkways with enhanced greenery in phases by 2023. The first phase of roadside streetscape enhancement
\nin Pasir Ris Wafer
\nFab Park is ongoing and will
\ncomplete by end this year. <\/p>\n
\n
<\/p>\n
\n
<\/p>\n
\n& Electronics Cluster, JTC, said, “The Electronics sector continues to see
\npositive growth and good job opportunities even in the midst of the pandemic.
\nThe second edition of Electronics Industry Day has seen increased company and
\nstudent participation. This is a great time for job seekers to interact
\ndirectly with companies and learn how you can shape the future through new
\ntechnologies. The transformation of industrial estates like JTC’s Wafer Fab
\nParks with more greenery and cycling paths will also be an added advantage in
\ncreating a more attractive work environment.”<\/p>\n
\n
<\/p>\n
\n
<\/p>\n
\na bright spot, with active recruitment and promising possibilities, many individuals
\nhave found working in the electronics sector as their dream jobs in the midst
\nof a pandemic.<\/p>\n

\ntechnological advancement the way it is, I can look forward to participating in
\nexciting projects with global impact, like 5G. It will be a proud moment when I
\nown a smartphone or tablet that contains a chip that I worked on,” said Oi Sok
\nYee, who have joined MediaTek Singapore as an engineer since June 2020.<\/p>\n
\n
<\/p>\n
\n
<\/p>\n
\nyounger engineers at Xilinx, 39-year-old Lim Siok Wei, an Integrated Circuit
\nDesign Manager, said IC Design is an ideal career for those who are interested
\nin learning new things and do not want to do the same thing every day. Her key
\nrole includes making the “black chip” inside TVs and phones that are
\nprogrammable. She and her team have won two Ross Freeman awards for their work
\non the class-leading SerDes, an integrated circuit that transmit data at high
\nspeeds. “The industry is fast-moving and as technology evolves, chips get
\nsmaller. Every day, you try to improve on, or change something, and that makes
\nour work exciting and challenging,” she added.
