The survey, conducted by 1111 Job Bank, a job service website in Taiwan, found that 46.7 percent of the respondents intend to work in the e-commerce industry in the future while another 6.3 percent are working in the sector.
E-commerce has been well received among Taiwan employees, with 93 percent of the respondents having shopped online in the past year, according to the survey.
Ho Chi-sheng, vice general manager of 1111 Job Bank, said e-commerce has penetrated into people's daily lives, and the fast growing sector is in great need of top talent.
