As Taiwan's economy has transformed, service-industry jobs have been replacing those in manufacturing. Few students work in manufacturing. Instead, they take positions in restaurants, supermarkets, and tutoring centers, or work as administrative assistants.
隨著台灣經濟的轉型，就業人口從以往主力的製造業大量轉向服務業，學生打工也少有進入製造業的，而多半是餐飲服務生、超商店員、課輔老師、行政助理等服務業職位。
