Do you want to develop your technical skills, expand your network, and have access to the industry’s leading technology companies? If your answer is yes, then starting your career with a technical workforce provider is the place for you.

First let’s clear something up.  There are many terms floating around the industry that sound like the same thing, but they are not, Managed Workforce Services, Managed Workforce Solutions and Managed Service Provider to name a few.  To some degree these companies have similarities, however a ‘true’ technical workforce provider is not just another one-off services company. A technical workforce provider partners with semiconductor companies to deliver a customized workforce to meet current business goals with the ability to evolve with business needs.

Working for a Technical Workforce Provider

Why is it important? 

The fact is – things change.  In the early 90s semiconductor companies built massive, permanent organizations.  The cost to hire and maintain an organization of this magnitude prohibited flexibility.   With each dip in the market cycle semiconductor companies were required to lay off thousands of workers to cut costs only to rehire with the inevitable upturn. Today, market cycles still happen, but have taken a backseat to the ‘talent shortage’.  Semconductor companies have big plans for the U.S., and they need technical expertise of all levels to make this a reality. However, they have not forgotten the inflexible workforce of yesterday.  A technical workforce provider gives semiconductor companies a customized technical workforce that is scalable and more efficient than the hiring processes of yesterday.

Who will I work for? 

As an employee, you are hired by the technical workforce provider, such as Principal Service Solutions (PSS). All aspects of employment –onboarding, payroll, HR etc. – are managed by PSS.  You will be assigned and deployed to work inside of the manufacturing facility as an individual, or as part of a team.  In most cases, these teams become seamlessly integrated into the operations to deliver on the goals established by the semiconductor company. Assignments may be structured as short-term or long-term depending on the agreement. Your day-to-day management may be the responsibility of the contracting company, or it may be the responsibility of PSS.

What is the benefit of working for a technical workforce provider?

A technical workforce provider can provide you with stable, long-term job opportunities well-suited to your experience, interests, and personality. Unlike direct hiring, as an employee of a technical workforce provider you have the unique chance to work in various areas of the chip facility to quickly diversify your skill set. You will develop team-building skills and critical project management experience working on highly efficient teams.  And working directly with customers gives an employee the rare opportunity to build customer interaction expertise.  Starting your journey with a technical service provider such as PSS provides you with the foundation for a long, successful career in the semiconductor industry.
