On the morning of April 18, at Dong Thap University (DThU), the 2026 Job Fair and Employer Connection took place sôi nổi, attracting the participation of 40 businesses and thousands of students along with delegates and guests.
Speaking at the opening, Mr. Cao Dao Thep - Vice Rector of the school - emphasized that the job fair is not only an annual activity but also a consistent commitment of the school in linking training with practice, putting learners at the center and social needs as development orientations.
Through many years of organization, the program has become an important forum for businesses and schools to meet, share and cooperate in human resource training.
Mr. Cao Dao Thep said that with more than 50 years of construction and development, DTHU has strongly transformed from a traditional pedagogical training institution to a multi-disciplinary, multi-field model, gradually affirming its position as a training, research and community service center of the Mekong Delta region. The school currently trains many levels from university to postgraduate, focusing on developing comprehensive capacity for learners, not only in knowledge but also in thinking, skills and aspirations to contribute.
This year's festival recorded a scale of 40 recruitment booths, with a recruitment demand of about 3,000 workers from many businesses in diverse fields, an increase of 10% compared to last year. The program also organized sponsorship scholarships, showing the companionship of businesses in education promotion and young human resource development.
Within the framework of the event, the school signed a memorandum of understanding on cooperation with new partners, including Mavin Group JSC and Mitek Vietnam Co., Ltd. This is considered an important step to expand internship and job opportunities, while strengthening the connection between the school - business - society.
Sending to students, Mr. Cao Dao Thep encourages them to be proactive and confident in seizing opportunities, preparing carefully in terms of knowledge, skills and professional attitude.
The 2026 Job Fair and Employer Connection not only brings specific recruitment opportunities but also contributes to strengthening trust, expanding cooperation and shaping sustainable development directions for local human resources. Through this, DThU continues to affirm the training orientation associated with practice, effectively serving the needs of socio-economic development.
