Data Scientist and Big Data talent is the most demand in Vietnam in the next five years


In 2020, Vietnam’s economy will largely be driven by digital transformation and disruptive technologies, and the recruitment market will face lack of digital engineers.

With a shortage of high-quality human resources, information technology, especially Big Data, Artificial Intelligence (AI), and fintech, is forecasted to be among the top 10 industries with the highest recruitment needs in Vietnam in 2020, according to the 2020 Vietnam Salary Guide report.

The tech sector also continued its rapid growth as businesses across industries continued accelerating their digital transformation and adopting new technologies, especially within the Business Intelligence (BI) and AI space. 
Those positions require specific skills and technology, together with the growth of digitization of information resources all over the world. Data Scientist and Big Data Engineer are expected to be at the top of the list of most in-demand positions in the next five years with their rapidly growing rate. Besides, the demand for software developers will also remain high and stable, due to the continuous development of outsourcing service.
The average turnover rate in Vietnam in 2019 is 24% and reason to leave the current jobs included: Lack of professional development (51.3%); have better job offers (32.4%); have poor relationship with line managers (10.8%); and others (5.5%). 
The seventh edition of the report, focusing on Vietnam’s two major cities Hanoi and Ho Chi Minh City, provides a detailed picture of current market offerings based on job responsibilities and working experiences among different sectors.

The recruitment landscape in Vietnam in 2019 remained strong as the country receives international investments and looks forward to reaching new heights. Benefited from a young labor workforce, rapid economic growth and political stability, Vietnam is an attractive and competitive investment destination. 

This has contributed to an increase in FDI inflows into the country, especially as more companies relocate their factories to Vietnam amidst the US-China trade tensions. New factory set-up required a lot more production and quality management professionals to ramp up their production capacity.
