您好，我是來自英國，在台灣工作，也在提高我的中文。我最近在找新工作，我要英文為工作語言的科學相關職位。目前我只有英文履歷，我的中文還不太好，只能寫簡單的中文履歷，語法簡單，表達不太自然。對於外國人在台灣找工作，有簡單的中文履歷會比沒有中文履歷更好嗎？

Hello, I’m a foreigner from Europe currently working in Taiwan. While I truly enjoy living here and love many aspects of life in Taiwan; the convenient living, relliable public transport, friendly people and delicious food, I’ve found the work culture very difficult to adjust to. I work in the field of science as a researcher, and while I am passionate about my field, the long working hours have really drained me. My current schedule is typically 9am–8pm (and sometimes later), five days a week, with only a one-hour lunch break. In my contract there is no mention of my expected work hours so I feel forced to work until my boss says I can go home. Back in my home country, I was used to working 40 hours a week with more breaks during the day, and I still had energy to pursue my hobbies and social life. Here, I often feel exhausted every day, and even on my days off I struggle to find the energy to enjoy Taiwan, meet people, or do activities I love. It’s been discouraging, and it’s crushing the passion I have for my field. Every Sunday I dread going back to work and having to go through it again another week. So I’d like to ask: is this the reality of most jobs in Taiwan, particularly in science/research? Are long hours expected every day? I am looking for other jobs that have work hours listed on the job posting, are they to be believed? Will I actually be working those hours or will I be forced to work longer? Are there any protections for foreigners regarding long hours? Or am I being unrealistic or entitled by expecting work-life balance to be similar to Western standards here? I would really appreciate hearing about other people’s experiences and any advice.

I just moved to Taiwan on a spouse visa (my spouse is not a Taiwanese citizen). I'm looking for a professional job in Taiwan. I have a PhD in electrical and electronic engineering and have previously worked in Japan as a measurement engineer in a company specialize in 3D imaging for visual inspection. I've applied for nearly 25 positions on this platform but haven't received any responses. Am I initially ineligible to work here? If you have a similar background, please share your thoughts. Thank you very much.

1. "As an international student studying Chinese in NTNU , already 4 months, and want to learn 1 year more (then apply master), am I eligible to apply for internship positions?" 2. "What common questions do employers typically ask for the position I am applying for?" 3. "With my current CV, are there any areas that need improvement to attract more attention from employers?"

I am a Pakistani IT Professional with 8+ years of experience in Electrical, Chemical and Textile industries. How many chances do I have to find a job in Taiwan speaking English? Can you view my profile and suggest some improvements?
