四大行业已恢复到大流行前的水平甚至更高，这从在线就业平台 JobStreet 上发布的就业机会和收到的申请数量可以看出。

According to JobStreet’s Job Outlook Report 2022 (Malaysia), the four broad industries are semiconductor and wafer fabrication, electrical and electronics (E&E), computer and information technology (IT) (software), as well as transportation and logistics.

根据 JobStreet 的 2022 年就业展望报告（马来西亚），四大行业是半导体和晶圆制造、电气和电子（E&E）、计算机和信息技术（IT）（软件）以及运输和物流。

“Demand for semiconductors rose strongly last year due to digital transformation brought by the pandemic and shortages in the automotive industry with around 70% of job ads for the semiconductor and wafer fabrication industry were for engineering and manufacturing specialisations, with a majority of 55% of job ads from Penang. 

“由于大流行带来的数字化转型和汽车行业的短缺，去年对半导体的需求强劲增长，半导体和晶圆制造行业约 70% 的招聘广告是针对工程和制造专业的，其中大多数为 55%槟城招聘广告的百分之一。 

“The E&E industry remained resilient in driving growth of the healthcare, automotive and retail sectors. Engineering-related posts contributed the most industry job ads at 35.8%, with Penang once again accounting for 50% of job ads, followed by Selangor at 23%,” said the report.
