Talent development is a continuous effort at D-Link. Under the trend of globalization and digital technology, the wave of intelligence has swept the world, and it is imperative to be prepared for the strategic layout of the next generation. Various slogans of digital transformation are flooding our ears, and information talents have become the target of various industries. In order to expand and strengthen the industry’s new information technology talent resources, cultivate and attract more outstanding talents to join the company, D-Link adopts multiple strategies for recruitment. In addition to the largest human resources matchmaking website in Taiwan, we also encourage existing employees to recommend talents to join us, and welcome professionals whose philosophies are consistent with the Company’s to move forward with us; at the same time, we continue to cooperate with various colleges and universities to cultivate young students through industry-university cooperation. To attract outstanding talents, D-Link provides competitive compensation and benefits in the market, and is committed to growing together with the employees. 

We participated in recruitment events on university campuses to expand and strengthen our pool of new information technology talent. Our goal is to cultivate and attract more outstanding individuals to join our team. Through a comprehensive introduction to a range of new products, our goal was to generate interest among students in the fields of Artificial Intelligence, 5G telecommunications, and the Internet of Things. 

As of the end of 2022, we participated in internship and recruitment events on eight university campuses. These include National Taiwan University, National Cheng Kung University, Tsing Hua University, National Taiwan University of Science and Technology, National Taipei University of Technology, Takming University of Science and Technology, Asia Eastern University of Science and Technology, and Chihlee University of Technology. Successively cooperated with 9 schools, including Tsinghua University, National Taipei University of Technology, National Taipei University of Education,  Taipei Education University, National Taiwan Ocean University, Yuan Ze University, Tamkang University, Aletheia University, National United University, United University, and Takming University of Science and Technology, for an internship or part-time programs.  

As of 2023, we participated in internship and recruitment events on twelve university campuses. These include National Chengchi University, National Yang Ming Chiao Tung University, National Taiwan Normal University, National Taipei University, Tamkang University, Shih Chien University, Aletheia University, National Taiwan University of Science and Technology, National Taipei University of Technology, Takming University of Science and Technology, Asia Eastern University of Science and Technology, Chihlee University of Technology, and China University of Science and Technology. Hold three enterprise visits, including National Hsinchu Senior High School, National Hsinchu Girls’ Senior High School, Kaohsiung Municipal Kaohsiung Senior High School, and Kaohsiung Municipal Kaohsiung Girls’ Senior High School, New Taipei Municipal Jui-Fang Industrial High School, and Takming University of Science and Technology. Also, hold an intern symposium.

Stepping onto the campus, we discovered that students have clear ideas about their future career development through briefing sessions and lectures. With the advancement of information technology, students have also conducted research to understand the various types of technologies offered by different companies. In response to the US-China trade war, Taiwanese businessmen who originally set up factories in China have expanded their factories in Taiwan, and various technology companies have expanded their recruitment in Taiwan. In addition to adhering to our concept of corporate sustainability in continuous 5G advancements, we believe strongly in providing our staff a work-life balance with fair wages and reasonable working environments. We will also continue to share the latest technology and recruit talent at major colleges and universities to ensure we attract the best talent for D-Link.

D-Link has established long-term cooperation with various colleges and universities and is committed to narrowing the gap between learning and application, and continues to recruit young talents under the age of thirty. At the same time, we continue to promote industry-university cooperation and actively encourage internship programs. Since 2021, two testing technical interns have been recruited. In 2022, seven R&D interns and five testing technical interns will be hired. In 2023, five R&D interns, seven testing technical interns, and two technical support interns will be hired, of which two will be foreign interns. During the internship period, we provide educational training, including practical learning, professional guidance, and a mentoring system.

The current status of the testing department is that as high as 30% full-time employees were retained through internship programs.
