Enterprises roll out the red carpet to recruit hundreds of workers at the end of the year

"Multi-industry recruitment fever"

The last months of the year are the period when businesses enter the "acceleration" cycle to complete orders and serve the holiday season. The reporter's records show that recruitment demand is bustling in all fields.

In the production sector, Ms. Luu Hoai Thu - Head of Human Resources Department of an industrial textile and garment company - said that the company plans to recruit 40-50 more workers from now until the end of the year to meet new orders. To attract employees, the company offers many attractive policies.

"We have a special bonus policy of 1 million VND/month, a bonus for new employees after 3 months of work, and especially a food and accommodation plan for workers in difficult circumstances far away," Ms. Thu shared.

Not only the manufacturing sector, the labor market in the service and retail sectors is also "hotting up" every day. Mr. Pham Manh Quan - Recruitment Supervisor of Jollibee restaurant chain in the Northern region - said that the company is recruiting from 100-200 part-time employees and about 20-30 management positions. The salary offered is quite competitive, ranging from 23,000 - 24,000 VND/hour for part-time employees and from 9.5 - 10 million VND/month for the team leader position.

However, both businesses admit that recruitment is becoming more and more difficult due to fierce competition from many newly opened businesses and brands, giving workers more options and companies having to continuously improve policies to retain talent.

There are still many challenges

In addition to the race for remuneration policies, the bigger challenge for businesses today is finding candidates who are truly suitable for the culture and specific job requirements.

Talking to Lao Dong, Mr. Nguyen Hoang Huy Cong - Director of Partnership Development of VietPay Technology Company - said that the enterprise is planning to recruit nearly 100 employees after receiving a capital round worth 5 million USD. VietPay's needs are very diverse, from senior managers to new graduates and flexible positions. However, the biggest difficulty is finding candidates with a "prcial" mindset.

Many candidates from the financial sector are used to the office environment. Meanwhile, our model requires employees to be ready to go out into the market and meet partners directly. This is a big barrier, Mr. Cong analyzed.

To solve this problem, VietPay is stepping up its multi-channel communication strategy, building a brand image on social networking platforms such as YouTube, Facebook and TikTok. This work aims to attract the right candidates, who are not only capable but also willing to commit and accompany the development of the company.
