Wave of layoffs increasing, is banking still worth studying?

The banking industry has always played an important role in promoting economic development and providing essential financial services to individuals and businesses. However, in the context of an increasingly volatile economy and many banks implementing staff cuts, many candidates and parents are worried.

Banking job opportunities

Although banks have cut many departments and experienced strong fluctuations, the industry still has outstanding growth rates in assets and profits. Many leading banks such as Techcombank, VPBank, Vietcombank, MB, BIDV, etc. have double-digit growth rates in assets, capital, and profits every year.

This not only reflects the strong development potential of the industry but also opens up many attractive career opportunities with income levels always among the highest in the labor market, averaging from 30 - 50 million VND/month.

Dan Tri newspaper quoted Professor Dr. Nguyen Tien Hoang, a training expert in the field of finance and banking, saying that students and parents can rest assured about career opportunities in the finance and banking industry.

"The flow of money in the economy is like the flow of blood in the human body. Therefore, all parties must ensure that the flow of money is always stable and growing. Therefore, job opportunities in the banking and finance industry are always abundant," explained Prof. Dr. Nguyen Tien Hoang.

It is important that students in this field must practice comprehensive skills and accumulate professional knowledge so that when they graduate, employers will seek them out and trust them to recruit them.
