Diversified indicators

According to Mr. Vu Quang Thanh - Deputy Director of Hanoi Employment Service Center, there are 68 enterprises participating in recruitment with more than 4,000 recruitment targets.

Specifically, out of a total of 68 participating enterprises, 49 enterprises participated in the trade - service sector, accounting for 72.1%. In addition, there are enterprises operating in other sectors such as: Manufacturing, restaurants - hotels, healthcare... In which, the demand for recruiting workers with college - university degrees or higher accounts for the highest proportion: 1,784/4,250 targets, the demand for recruiting workers with intermediate qualifications, technical workers: 1,479/4,250 targets, the demand for recruiting unskilled workers: 987/4,250 targets, accounting for 23.2%. Accordingly, the salary offered by enterprises is quite attractive with the lowest level being 5 million VND, the highest can be up to 2 digits if meeting the requirements of the enterprise.

Notably, at the Job Fair, job opportunities, part-time jobs and internships for students focused mainly on the 18-25 age group with 1,986 positions, accounting for 46.7%. This is a job opportunity that helps young, enthusiastic workers have many opportunities to choose jobs that are suitable for their professional qualifications and abilities. In addition, students can choose part-time jobs and internship opportunities to accumulate more experience, meeting the requirements of businesses after graduation.

Strengthening 3-way connection

A survey from the Job Fair shows that with the diversity of business fields that suit the needs of employees, students who want to find jobs to earn extra income can choose a job that suits their abilities after graduation and can stick with it for a long time, stabilizing their lives.

Present at the job fair, Nguyen Hong Nhung, a third-year student at Hanoi Foreign Trade University, easily found a part-time job suitable for her major with a decent salary (6 million VND/month).

“This festival is a bridge between students and the labor market. The event creates opportunities for students to meet and interact with employers, explore career opportunities and gain knowledge about employment trends, thereby helping them to be more confident when entering the labor market” - Hong Nhung shared.

In reality, this connection does not stop at recruitment, but is also reflected in soft skills training programs such as CV writing, interviewing and professional communication - essential factors to help students confidently enter the labor market. These are important skills that many students are not fully equipped with when they first graduate, making it difficult for them to find a job.

Mr. Vu Quang Thanh assessed that through the Recruitment Festival, students will experience practical activities at the Job Fair, practice job search skills, thereby learning and improving, equipping themselves with basic skills and knowledge, the ability to adapt to fluctuations in the labor market after graduation, building habits and working style in a systematic and professional manner, thereby choosing jobs and careers that match their skills and aspirations. In addition, it will create a bridge between 3 parties: school - students - businesses, creating opportunities for businesses to access high-quality human resources, creating a long-term information exchange relationship between schools and businesses.
