Post new topic

Hi all,

My name is Tin Tin and I would like to know tips on how to move to Vietnam successfully.  What do I mean?

Currently, I work in Miami, FL, USA as a systems admin.  I would like to eventually  move to HCMC, Vietnam.  I am Vietnamese and know how to speak the language. 

I need to know how to network my ways to land an IT job or business consultant job in Vietnam.  Any tips? 

Thanks for your time.

The best way is to get with an American company.  After that, look up other western company.  Last resort, start your own.  Never work for a Vietnamese company.  You will get old real fast.  Work means very different here.

Unfortunately, I work in the hardware side of the house.  I can send you my CV if you can help out.  Thanks.

Also, for a systems engineer or a software engineer, what is the average salary in Vietnam per month?
