Foxconn Technology Group will try to hire 13-thousand workers for its plant in southeastern Wisconsin at a time when the state’s unemployment rate is near an all-time low. One of the keys to finding the thousands of engineers needed will be the partnerships formed with colleges, universities and technical schools. The Taiwan-based electronics manufacturer will spend about 10-billion dollars to build a 20-million square foot campus near Mount Pleasant. The Wisconsin Economic Development Corporation is spending another one-million dollars on the search for potential workers in other states.
