Banks need to recruit more employees to expandMany banks throughout the country need to recruit more employees for their newly opened branches this year or to replace staff members who quit their jobs before the Lunar New Year (Tet) holiday. More than 52 percent of these organisations plan to increase their staff in the first quarter and 68.7 percent will recruit more employees for the whole year, the SBV statistics say. Thirty seven percent of employers also said that in order to increase the efficiency of recruitment, banks should consider offering financial incentives to attract candidates. Moreover, the average annual salary increase of the surveyed candidates is quite high. Forty percent of them have an annual salary increase of over 10 percent.
