Schuyler Morgan, G-TAC Workshop Description: All of business is driven by relationships; effective communications are at the heart of business and career success. It is not just a meritocracy – career-minded individuals must consistently and effectively communicate why they are the best candidate for a position and what they have accomplished or can accomplish that demonstrates that fact. Key Workshop Components: Communication Skills. In this segment of the workshop, we will emphasize effective communication strategies for interview settings as well as during times of change. Communication Strategies for High Tech Professionals. In this segment, we will highlight how and why communication is important in high tech environments. We will also provide critical guidance on why different communication settings require correspondingly different communication approaches. Business Acumen. In this segment, we will discuss how to successfully negotiate the challenges of the workplace environment. The Brand Called “You”. And as our overarching message, we will share how the concepts of consistent and accurate branding apply to, and are critical to, individuals who wish to expand their careers. Key Benefits to Participants: 1. Understanding our own personal branding reveals to us those messages we are often unconsciously transmitting, enabling us to choose the impression that we make on others. 2. Understanding that communication occurs at many levels – including what we say and write, how we say it, what we do and don’t do all of the time – enables us to make powerful choices about creating the brand that we want. 3. Others’ perception of us, based on all of our verbal and nonverbal communications, creates our brand whether we like it or not; we can learn how to shape that perception into something we choose. 4. Inspiring confidence that we can do the job (in the perception of interviewers, supervisors, colleagues and others) leads to career success – including job offers, promotions, acknowledgement, and compensation. ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ 2008 CASPA/SEMI High-Tech Job Fair Invitation

This year CASPA accomplishes another milestone in co-organizing the Job Fair with SEMI. With CASPA and SEMI joining forces, this event will be unprecedented and filled with much excitement and anticipated success. In the past, the Annual Job Fair has been a very successful and popular CASPA event. Thousands of professionals in semiconductor and related industries have attended.

A total of twenty-two exhibitors participated in CASPA 2007 Job Fair, including: ACM Research, Apexone Microelectronics, Applied Materials, Faraday Technology Corp., Global Unichip Corp., Huawei/Hisilicon Technologies, ITRI, Kilopass, Marvell, Mavcom Inc., OmniVision, Pantronix, Power Analog Microelectronics, Rising Solutions, SEMI, Shanghai Association (SAIEP), SMIC, Spansion, SST, TSMC, UMC Group (USA), and Winbond America.

By recruiting at all four different major cities where many high-tech professionals reside, your company will have good chances of finding top-notched and well-qualified candidates to fill key positions, critical to the explosive growth of your company in years to come.
