Hi everyone, the normal life is coming back day by day. We are now waiting for the epidemic to be over. In the last difficult time, I have read some articles about the life of expats in Vietnam. There has been someone being in difficulties due to no job, no money. It was not because they were lack of experience or quality, it was because of the difficult time that the whole world is being through at present. For those who have just come to Vietnam and have not found a suitable job yet, I hope this post about job recruitment sites in Vietnam can support you in your career in Vietnam.
And here are the most popular sites for expat jobs in Vietnam:
VIETNAMWORK
Vietnamwork is the most popular site for local recruiters and candidates. For the first time, I thought that Vietnamwork is only useful for Vietnamese people who want to work for Vietnamese companies. However, at a time of finding jobs, I found some recruitment information even from some Chinese banks. From that moment, my purpose was turned into finding jobs from foreign recruiters and I recognized that there have been many job recruitments for expats living in Vietnam.
In this site, you can search by the types of job you want in relations to the fields such as HR, doctors, sales, insurrance, real estate, stock, law... You can search by location (for example: Ho Chi Minh City, Hanoi, Da Nang...), so you can find job in whichever province in Vietnam you want to work in. You can also look for jobs by salary and position you want. You can type the level of salary as well as the position (manager, senior or junior...), the search mode can help you.
Besides, the recruiters can also find you and contact to you if you upload your CV which is suitable to them. In this case, maybe it is also similar to Linkedin.
If you have been familiar with Linkedin, don't worry because in Vietnam, the recruiters also use Linkedin to look for candidates and by contrast, candidates also use it to find jobs. However, the popularity of this site is less than Vietnamwork. Normaly, the HR recruiters who are hired from the companies as a recruitment service will contact to you for the information of recruitments, which is often is urgent cases.
FACEBOOK GROUPS
Finally, one of the useful ways is to join the groups on Facebook. There are many groups which can help expats in Vietnam. For example: Hanoi Massive Community is a group where expats and locals help expats in Hanoi. This group has more than 5000 members. Besides, Internship & Jobs in Vietnam is also a group with professional recruitment information.
Above is the two groups that is the most useful as I think. However, I don't think that I know everything. If you have more information about other groups or sites for expat jobs in Vietnam, don't hesitate to leave your comments below.
