In an era where skill gaps widen as quickly as technological advances, Viettel stands out with a human-centered approach to growth. With more than 50,000 employees across 10 global markets and a mission to drive digital society, Viettel has embedded sustainability not just into its infrastructure, but into its people strategy.
The Group’s dual focus on Talent Acquisition and Learning & Development has enabled it to not only compete for top talent in high-tech fields but to continuously evolve its workforce through a culture of lifelong learning. At Viettel, sustainable development starts with people - and that starts now.
Vietnam’s shortage of high-tech talent, especially in emerging fields like AI, IoT, and 5G, poses a significant recruitment challenge. Viettel responded with a comprehensive acquisition strategy that reaches beyond conventional hiring.
The company built a standout employer brand - its social media campaigns generated over 1.2 million engagements and attracted 207,000 followers. Its EVP, “Lead the way – Embrace the change – Drive the change”, speaks directly to Gen Z and young professionals looking for purpose and challenge.
Beyond branding, Viettel moved strategically into the education ecosystem. With more than 20 university partnerships and five formal MOUs, the company is reshaping the future talent pipeline. Scholarship programs like Viettel Research Excellence, internship models, and mock interviews are conducted directly at universities to prepare students for high-impact careers. Initiatives such as Viettel Digital Talent and Viettel Future Changemakers provide immersive, fast-track career experiences that blend training with real-world problem-solving.
Recognizing the need to attract top senior-level professionals as well, Viettel launched a specialized Headhunting Program - upskilling recruiters with podcast storytelling techniques and advanced sourcing methods to target experienced tech leaders. Altogether, this approach reflects a recruiting function that is both tactical and visionary.

Learning & Development – Empowering Growth Through Technology and Access
Viettel’s learning architecture is designed around a simple idea: everyone can learn, at their pace, in their way
The Group has built a network of over 650 certified internal trainers and mentors, forming the backbone of its knowledge-sharing ecosystem. Each of Viettel’s 19 out of 22 units has a dedicated L&D team, ensuring training is contextualized and consistent across its large operational landscape.
Viettel invests heavily in learning technology. Tools such as the By-day Learning App, AI-based learning path suggestions, Mydio audiobooks, and digital dashboards help tailor learning to business needs. Global platforms like Coursera and Udemy complement the digital ecosystem.
Recognizing varied roles and goals, Viettel has created specialized programs like DX Excellence, Tech Forward, Future Leaders, and Global Mobility. This ensures development opportunities are aligned to the distinct needs of each talent segment - technical experts, future managers, or global-ready professionals.
At Viettel, people are not only part of the digital transformation - they lead it. Through a strategy that merges talent acquisition with lifelong learning, the Group is making its workforce not just job-ready, but future-ready. In a world of rapid change, sustainable development demands more than vision, it demands people who are equipped, empowered, and inspired to build what’s next. Viettel is doing just that - with people in focus, and the future in mind.
