According to the Hanoi Employment Service Center, the bulletin was built based on survey data from more than 3,000 students in the third quarter of 2025. The book provides a direct, multi-dimensional view of the practical capacity of the capital's young human resources, while pointing out alarming "spaces" in practical skills and preparation for the labor market.
The news report points out the existing limitations in the future workforce. One of the most notable figures is that up to 54.89% of students have never participated in any official internship. This shows a large gap between the academic environment and the business reality, leading to the risk of lacking practical experience when graduating.
In addition, application skills are also a major weakness. Up to 92.57% of students feel difficult or only at a normal level when writing a CV to demonstrate their abilities. Regarding digital skills - a vital factor in the 4.0 era - nearly 75% of students self-assess their abilities only at an average or low level. In particular, nearly 50% of students (49.64%) admitted that they do not have or are vague about their long-term career path.
These figures are an important basis for training institutions and students themselves to look back at current learning and training methods.
The news also acknowledged the outstanding strengths of Hanoi students. Specifically, 59.24% of students are confident in their ability to flexibly adapt to new environments and working tools. Self-study and knowledge updated capacity is also highly appreciated with 84.28% of students having average or higher confidence.
In addition, foundational soft skills such as teamwork, time management and persuasion are also big plus points that students in the capital are possessing.
Not only stopping at analyzing the current situation, the Newsletter also provides practical information about the rising career trends such as: Green economy, creative economy, data analysis and comprehensive health care.
The Hanoi Employment Service Center also offers specific recommendations to help students take immediate action, from "new page" CV, behavioral interview training to building a professional network of relationships (Networking). The newsletter also introduces free support resources such as career counseling hotline, Job Portal and internship connection programs.
