TSMC recruiting for Arizona

A team of 300 current employees will initially staff the fab. 

In addition to them, TSMC is recruiting 300 new graduates, and engineers with a couple of years experience, who are already eligible to work in the US.

This group will be assembled at Tainan for a year of training – all in English – to prepare them for working in Arizona.

The US government is said to have guaranteed to TSMC that it shall have as many US work visas as it needs to staff the fab.

The plant will eventually employ 1,600 people.

Construction starts next year with first production in 2024.

With Samsung asking for planning permission on a 258 acre site next to its fab in Austin, and with Intel possibly getting its process act together again, the USA could possibly have three potential sources of leading edge fab by the mid-2020s.
