According to our most recent statistics, Vietnam is starting to have a
switch from outsourcing to product development. As a result of this
trend, developers want to advance their career by being more innovative.
Skilled developers spend very little of their time searching for jobs on
websites but instead of nding it through online communities, events
and social networks.

In Vietnam Tech Market, many startups have already developed numerous AI Machine Learning projects creating an innovative boost for the whole industry. For that matter, the salary for this particular skill is increasing significantly for the years to come.
At recent national tech conferences like Vietnam Web Summit and Vietnam Mobile Day, many companies and corporations from all over the globe have mentioned a lot about applying AI and Business Intelligence in to their current bussiness models.

“After all, in order to achieve impressive results as other advanced countries, Vietnam needs to accelerate its labor productivity. The confrontation between the world’s development models ultimately lies in the fact that which model creates higher productivity. That is also the reason why we see great world’s powers competing against each other primarily not about trade, but technology. As technology is the way to help Vietnam get rid of its short-sightedness and strive for ambitious visions, the dream of Vietnam becoming an IT nation will soon come true."
In the last 5 years, Vietnam has been going through positive changes in digital transformation, thus moving forward into a digital economy and a digital society. Therefore, the wave of tech startups as well as startup projects from large companies, has continuously been on the rise. With the entire technology industry’s substantial growth in general, it can be said that by 2020, Vietnam will be considered as an IT nation of Southeast Asia. Minister of Information and Communications Nguyen Manh Hung said that an additional 50,000 IT businesses (ICT) is necessary for Vietnam to accelerate its digital transformation. A trend called Make In Vietnam is on a strong momentum where the developers and technology experts have considered more about bringing Vietnamese products to the world. Product companies are gradually showing their appearance.
At present, the IT industry is being evaluated as one of the leading industries in Vietnam. There is a number of more than 153 institutions training 50,000 IT personnel. According to experts’ assessment, Vietnam will be an ideal destination for leading technology companies in the world and the region to have their product development located. Particularly in the Vietnam market, there are numerous small and large startups developing potential projects directly related to AI and Machine Learning, which creates an abundance of outstanding values for the technology industry as a whole.

The global economy is being covered by a gloomy gray area caused by Covid-19 pandemic - a miserable event that human history has never witnessed in the last century. People from all social classes, small and large businesses have been substantially affected by Covid-19, including the technology sector. The compulsory governmental campaign "Social distancing" has forced businesses to turn on their "survival" mode, which means a series of cost-cutting measures have been implemented.
However, there will always be an opportunity in the most difficult period, in this situation, is the flexibility and creativity in the adaptation of many domestic businesses. Vietnam is one of the countries with a young population in the world, with a population of 100 million and more than 150 million mobile devices, 70% of them connected to the Internet. As a result, it seems that Vietnam has prepared for changes especially for enterprise digitization which is currently being promoted strongly than ever.
The keywords #SocialDistancing #WorkFromHome have been hot topics recently. How businesses turned from bad to good? How did they change in this difficult period? In this report, TopDev will partly illustrate the digital transformation outlook of the Vietnam IT market as well as suggest suitable solutions for businesses in need for support at this tough time.

Post-epidemic IT market as well as IT recruiting demand has undergone positive changes. Never before have we seen the government is continuously opening doors of cooperation with foreign technology companies. The lack of resources is not really a reason, however, it is a sign of timely attention and understanding the importance of promoting digitalization and technology application in economic, educational, social and medical development, etc. Also from these challenges, we can once again confirm the significance of technology in helping people quickly overcome wide-ranging crises, thus creating more development opportunities for the whole society.
Moreover, after worldwide changes in the past time, strong investment trends from Western countries are heading to Asia, especially Vietnam - one of their top choices since more foreign companies are signaling a shift in production chains. This plays as a precious opportunity for Vietnam so the government as well as domestic businesses are acting jointly to "build a nest" for improving and promoting technology to be ready for future transformation. Welcoming either "Eagle" or "Sparrow" Will soon be answered, if we prepare comprehensively, Vietnam will absolutely gain success. 'For that reason, the IT recruitment market is heading towards a brighter outlook with a more optimistic future for both employers and candidates. However, these changes also force both parties to adapt and upgrade themselves to fit new trends in this new era. With more standardization in the recruitment process, requirements from employers have become realistic and updated with the world's trend. Let's take a look at the positive changes in the recruitment oindustry in the first half of 2020.
