(GLO) – Thousands of new jobs are opening across Vietnam’s industrial zones as companies rush to recruit workers ahead of year-end production deadlines, with salaries and benefits on the rise to attract applicants.

At Nhon Hoi Industrial Park in Quy Nhon, B & D Lingerie Vietnam Co., Ltd. is seeking 300 workers to meet export orders.

The company has set up a fast-track recruitment process with on-site interviews, free shuttle buses, and immediate start dates.

Salaries start at more than VND 7 million (USD 280) per month, with attendance bonuses, free meals, housing support, and a 13th-month salary bonus.

The hiring spree extends beyond garments. CPV FOOD Co., Ltd., based in Dong Nai Province, is looking for more than 200 seasonal workers in processing, packaging, and logistics, while Duc Minh Gia Lai JSC in Tra Da Industrial Park is recruiting 30 staff for technical roles.

These positions pay VND 250,000-300,000 (USD 10-12) per day, plus meal allowances, housing support, and full benefits.

Local employment fairs are also fueling the momentum. From September 9–18, the provincial Employment Service Center organized six mobile job fairs, each attracting nearly 100 participants.

Many candidates are weighing workplace benefits, social insurance, and long-term stability before accepting offers.

Since early 2025, the Center has provided job counseling and vocational training guidance to more than 86,000 workers.

Recruitment demand, however, continues to outpace skilled labor supply, forcing companies to hire untrained workers and provide short-term training in partnership with vocational schools.

Employers are increasingly transparent about pay, allowances, and Tet bonuses to retain staff.

The Center forecasts that the province will need over 5,000 workers in processing, high-tech agriculture, logistics, and garment sectors through the end of 2025.

The surge in year-end recruitment reflects strong economic activity, with businesses expanding operations while workers gain more stable employment and improved living standards.
