LITEON Vietnam’s Journey: Shaping a Future of Excellence through People and Technology

Founded in 1975 and headquartered in Taiwan, LITEON Technology is a global leader in optoelectronics, power supplies, and smart manufacturing solutions. With operations in over 20 countries and a workforce exceeding 40,000 people, LITEON has built a reputation for innovation, agility, and a commitment to sustainability. LITEON Vietnam, established in Hai Phong, plays a key role in LITEON 's global manufacturing network, especially in the automotive electronics and server power sectors.

In 2024, LITEON Vietnam (LOVN) faced an ambitious challenge: rapidly expanding its workforce from 1,000 to 5,000 employees amid intense competition for skilled labor and the need for global technology transfer. Rather than compromise quality for speed, LITEON embraced a holistic, tech-powered approach to talent acquisition - setting a new benchmark for HR excellence in Vietnam’s manufacturing sector.

TALENT ACQUISITION: BUILDING SMARTER, FASTER, STRONGER

LITEON broadened its sourcing strategy by combining traditional job boards with social platforms and Domestic & International university partnership. A professional Facebook page " LITEON chào bạn," LinkedIn campaigns, and employee referral rewards (up to 8 million VND) expanded reach. Collaborations with FPT University and Vietnam Maritime University led to campus tours (LOVN Tour), scholarships (Ming Chuan University Program), and internships that nurtured future engineers early.

To enhance speed and experience, LITEON integrated ASTECH and AI tools like Lasso and JobTest into its recruitment flow. Evaluation criteria were standardized, interviews digitized, and onboarding was revolutionized with a self-service kiosk that processes 60 candidates in 10 minutes.

Launched in March 2024, the Kiosk Go Live system drastically reduced onboarding time and streamlined the candidate intake process, especially during peak hiring periods. These innovations reduced time-to-hire and improved transparency for all stakeholders.

Through the "Future with LITEON " campaign, the company elevated its brand by showcasing success stories, clear career paths, and an inclusive workplace. Signature programs like LIMI (LITEON Intelligent Manufacturing Institute) offered one-year training and cross-border exposure to top tech students.

LIMI has become a cornerstone of LITEON’s early talent strategy, offering students one-year structured training (2+3+6+1 model), cross-border exposure, and hands-on projects. This unique model bridges academic theory with real-time industry practice and strengthens LITEON’s future engineering talent pipeline.

The results speak for themselves: LITEON reached its hiring target of 5,000 on time, increased offer acceptance and retention of new hires by 15%, and boosted female workforce participation. Candidate satisfaction also improved significantly, reflecting a recruitment journey that was not only fast, but human centric.

HR TECH & INNOVATION: DIGITIZING HUMAN IMPACT

As LITEON scaled its workforce, digital transformation became indispensable. Beyond recruitment, LITEON invested in a robust digital HR ecosystem to support sustainable scale. ASTECH and SAP integration centralized HR functions, while mobile apps enabled self-service for payroll, leave, and real time feedback. AI-driven analytics provided insights into turnover risks, skill gaps, and workforce planning. Lasso, a predictive AI tool, helped identify high-potential candidates and reduce early attrition through better matching during the hiring process.

The impact: HR admin workload dropped by 40%, employee satisfaction rose by 25%, and data-driven decisions became the norm. With these platforms, HR became not just a support function, but a strategic growth driver.

LITEON Vietnam’s success in talent acquisition and HR innovation reflects more than operational excellence it embodies a forward-thinking philosophy where people, process, and purpose align.

By merging local insight with global standards and human needs with digital tools, LITEON has built not just a team, but a future-ready talent ecosystem poised for global-tech leadership.
