Ms. Yen Nhi - HR department of KDDI Vietnam Co., Ltd. (Quang Trung Software Park, Ho Chi Minh City) - said that currently it will be difficult to achieve a salary of 20 million VND/month.
The labor market is facing difficulties, so to have a salary of 20 million VND/month, the worker must have good capacity, good skills and the company must have a strong budget.
Meanwhile, Ms. Van Phi - HR department of Polytex Far Eastern Vietnam Co., Ltd. - informed that the company pays the group of newly graduated workers at over 10 million VND compared to the expectation of newly graduated students of about 12 - 15 million VND/month. It is very difficult for young workers to reach 20 million/month.
On the contrary, a representative of CT Group said that achieving a salary of 20 million/month for a student who has just graduated from CT Group is not difficult.
Of course, candidates must "graduate well, be excellent, love technology, have sharp thinking, and have both strategic and critical thinking skills". Workers must be able to adapt well in a constantly changing working environment.

If you want a high salary, you must improve both your professional and soft skills.
Ms. Thao Vy - CMNB Vietnam Foreign Language and Study Abroad Consulting Center - said that workers must upgrade their soft skills more.
"The working process has many problems arising from both internal and external factors, so soft skills, office skills, problem solving, and communication skills must be very strong. A high salary requires improving many skills, of which professional theory is only a supplement," said Ms. Thao Vy.
Ms. Thao Vy commented that Gen Z workers are very dynamic, but when it comes to work, they show "dynamic personality and working style but passive thinking". Not to mention, many people only want to "frame" the job description correctly and are less proactive in supporting colleagues if they are in different fields.
