Madison Business Update
November 15—Sun Microchips is the largest producer in the country of the integrated circuits that go into computers, smartphones, and other digital electronics. The company has recently built a new factory in Madison and will begin operations starting in January of next year. The chief executive officer of Sun Microchips, Melinda Piers, stated that, “As the market for consumer electronics continues to become larger and larger globally, companies like Sun Microchips are expanding to meet the needs."
"We are looking to hire a variety of people such as factory workers, personnel employees, and accountants. We expect the opening of the factory to create over 200 jobs in Madison,” said Ms. Piers. She noted that the company will try to hire local applicants first, but that those living outside of Madison are also encouraged to apply.
Applicants must submit their resume by November 25 by e-mailing Tina Zimmerman at [email protected]. Sun Microchips will be holding interviews next month on two separate dates. Those applying as general laborers for jobs on the assembly line should schedule an interview between December 3 and 8.

Dear Ms. Zimmerman,
I recently read an article in the Madison Business Update about the openings at a new factory in Madison. As a former employee of Sun Microchips, I was excited by the prospect of joining your company again.
Please see the attached file. I would really appreciate it if you would give me a chance to have an interview. Anytime on December 10 will work for me. If you would like to learn more about my past work experience with Sun Microchips, you can contact my former supervisor, Todd Smith. He is still working there.
I look forward to meeting you.
