Quỳnh Chi |

According to the Hanoi Employment Service Center, in June 2026, job seekers want a salary of 5-10 million VND/month, accounting for 47.1% of total demand.

The Hanoi Employment Service Center believes that June is the time when workers tend to look for new job opportunities to increase income.

Along with that, businesses also restarted production and business activities, creating many vacant jobs, especially among unskilled workers and office workers. In the city, in June, the number of workers looking for jobs was 40,000 people.

Based on surveys and information gathering on 3,600 job seekers of the Center, the desired salary of workers is mainly from 5-10 million VND/month, accounting for 47.1%. This is the common salary on the market, suitable for this group, which are usually common workers, new graduates or basic administrative/service positions.

Salaries from 10-20 million VND/month account for 44.6%. This is the expected salary level for people with good professional qualifications (such as university graduates or intermediate/high-level professionals with experience).

Salaries over 20 million VND/month account for 8%, focusing on senior personnel such as leaders, managers or experienced experts. This shows that the most vibrant recruitment market will be in the salary range of 5-20 million VND/month. Businesses wanting to attract a large number of candidate applications need to position the minimum salary range in this range to ensure competitiveness.

Regarding age, workers looking for jobs mainly focus on the age group from 35-54, accounting for 42.4%, showing that middle-aged workers currently have a large need to change jobs. The reason may come from the fact that businesses are restructuring or workers themselves at this stage want to find a more stable environment with better welfare regimes.

Next is the group from 25-34 years old accounting for 38.2%. This is the core, dynamic labor force, which has accumulated from 3-10 years of experience. This group tends to have the highest job hopping due to the psychology of wanting to break through in income, change the environment to develop personal careers and are very quick to new technologies.

The group from 15-24 years old accounts for 17.8%, mainly new graduates, young people who have just started working or looking for part-time/internship jobs. This rate shows that the supply of young labor in the market is still maintained at a stable level.

The group aged 55 and over accounts for 1.6%, in this group, job seekers are often experts, senior advisors or people who need to work part-time to maintain dynamism.
