It's crazy hot now in semiconductors. Anyone with couple of years experience is approached by recruiters daily.

Is experience in electronics enough to work in that?

[bgnn]

Yes and no. It's hard to enter chip design directly. But eventually all chips are used in a PCB and there's a lot going on on that interface. It's called application engineering or systems engineering in the field and that is also hot.

So you’re talking about chip design primarily.

[bgnn]

Yes. Design is hot but manufacturing is in a down cycle at the moment. Another hot field is EDA software development but it's dominated by 3 giant companies.
