In the AI era, students don't just need to study well

According to experts, artificial intelligence (AI) causes the labor market to fluctuate continuously, and just "good at studying" is no longer enough to help students create an advantage.

On April 3, 2026, Thang Long University organized Thang Long University Job Fair 2026, attracting nearly 30 businesses and about 5,000 attendees.

Speaking at the event, Dr. Vu Do Quynh - Vice Rector of the school - said that the training orientation of Thang Long University is always associated with practice, focusing on combining theory and professional experience. Activities such as internships, internships and job fairs play a bridging role, helping students access the business environment early.

In the context of rapid technological development, especially AI and automation, the requirements for human resources are also changing significantly. Businesses not only seek professional knowledge but also require adaptability, creative thinking and working skills in a digital environment. This puts significant pressure on students even when they are still in university.

At the festival, students have the opportunity to directly contact employers, learn about the actual needs of the market and listen to shares from businesses. Many young people actively ask questions, participate in quick interviews and look for internship opportunities and suitable jobs.

Mr. Quynh advises students to make the most of their time to listen, learn and actively connect with employers.

Be bold to ask questions, express yourself and don't hesitate to step out of your comfort zone. Because today's proactiveness will help you open the door to a wider future" - he said.

From the business side, Mr. Nguyen Bao Long - representative of TopCV Vietnam Joint Stock Company - said that the recruitment market is having a clear shift.

Businesses are increasingly prioritizing candidates who are capable of learning quickly and adapting quickly rather than just being good at theory. Technology can replace some jobs, but cannot replace human thinking and initiative" - Mr. Long shared.

Also according to Mr. Long, students today need to change their approach to jobs: not waiting for opportunities but proactively seeking, experiencing and accumulating skills early. Skills such as communication, critical thinking, teamwork and especially self-learning ability will become the "key" to help students adapt to constantly changing working environments.
