According to the Ministry of Information and Communications, by 2020, Vietnam faced a shortage of over 500,000 IT personnel. The approaching Fourth Industrial Revolution, with the rise of technology, has truly created a "thirst" for IT professionals, making IT the third highest-paying industry in Vietnam.<\/span><\/p>

IT is the third highest-paying industry in Vietnam.<\/strong><\/span><\/p>

IT students are always sought after by employers even while still in university, and their starting salaries are consistently higher than the average. In particular, information technology in the 4.0 era has even greater opportunities for strong growth, likened to "a fish finding water" amidst the impact of automation, artificial intelligence (AI), deep learning, machine learning, etc., on economic, political, and social life.<\/span><\/p>

Accordingly, newly graduated IT students earn an average of 8-12 million VND per month, while those with 2 years or more of experience earn between 17-18.5 million VND. This group of personnel is always among the top sought-after by businesses, accounting for 75% of market demand. For director positions with over 10 years of experience, these professionals are highly sought after and companies are willing to pay salaries of 52.2-64.5 million VND per month. However, in reality, this is also one of the most difficult positions to fill in the current job market.<\/span><\/p>

Topdev's data also coincides with Adecco's salary report published in March. The company stated that Support and Helpdesk positions have the lowest salaries in the IT industry, but still range from 10-15 million VND per month. The top position, CIO, commands a salary of 100-150 million VND and requires a minimum of 15 years of experience. IT directors also receive substantial salaries of 60-100 million VND per month.<\/span><\/p>

The IT profession is incredibly popular, with high salaries, attractive compensation packages, and many opportunities for long-term career development. However, not all IT students are suited to or consistently pursue this career.<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

In the face of the rapid development trends of the technological era, programmers' thinking must always be dynamic, learning, exploring, and constantly improving their soft skills to adapt to market changes. Among these, foreign language skills are always a priority for recruiters and companies when hiring.<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>

According to Ms. Nguyen Phuong Mai (CEO of Navigos Search), "Most businesses have reported that Vietnamese IT engineers are very diligent, intelligent, and eager to learn. These engineers are young and creative, making significant contributions to businesses." However, most complaints from businesses regarding young IT professionals focus on limited English language skills, communication skills, and the ability to integrate into a professional work environment.<\/span><\/p>

Meanwhile, data from VietnamWorks and TopITworks shows that candidates with advanced Japanese language skills (N1 level) earn approximately 401 TP3T higher salaries than candidates with N5 level Japanese proficiency. However, among the survey participants, only 11 TP3T had N1 level proficiency.<\/span><\/p>

Candidates with "pro" English skills were also paid approximately 481 TP3T more than candidates with basic English skills. However, in reality, only 221 TP3T of survey participants indicated they had advanced English skills, and 11 TP3T had N1 level Japanese proficiency.<\/span><\/p>

"When recruiting, most businesses don't pay too much attention to which school you graduated from, but rather evaluate you based on your practical problem-solving skills, critical thinking abilities, and ability to learn independently. Among these, the ability to be flexible and proactively acquire new knowledge is always a top priority for businesses," Ms. Mai added.<\/span><\/p>

 The salary and income of a programmer are also very high after graduation.<\/em><\/span><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table><\/div>\n<\/div>

Thus, given the current situation where sectors like economics, finance, and banking are showing signs of 'saturation' and labor surplus, with thousands of graduates each year still struggling to find jobs, the question of 'What to study to get a job immediately after graduation?' is gradually becoming a concern for parents and students, and there are now more options available.<\/span><\/p>

In reality, not many schools offer in-depth training in application development (programming and software project development) through their Information Technology - Software Applications and Website Design - Digital Marketing programs. It is known that, besides FPT University, the University of Information Technology, and the Ho Chi Minh City University of Technology (under the Vietnam National University Ho Chi Minh City), only Viet My College among the colleges currently offers such programs.  <\/span><\/h5>\n
