Vietnam is a country in the Southeast Asia culture sphere and thus shares many resembling traditions with other Asian countries, as well as influences from French culture since colonization in the 19th century, reflected in the country’s architecture and food.

Hanoi is located on the banks of the Red River, with well-preserved colonial buildings, ancient pagodas, and unique museums right within the city center, which makes it a great city to explore on foot. High-rise office buildings, commercial centers, schools, as well as the telecom infrastructure, utilities and other basic services are well-established in Hanoi. It’s not uncommon to find colonial neighborhoods with Western influence, evident from the likes of grand villas with French-inspired architecture, manicured gardens and palm trees adorning the streets.

There are also plenty of serviced apartments, studio flats and other types of modern accommodations for expat workers, families, students or retirees. As for the culture, Hanoi is deeply multifaceted. It is a fusion of traditional and contemporary values, a mixture of local traditions that have come to incorporate the advances of globalization.

With an ever-expanding economy, the range of jobs available for expats moving to Vietnam is also growing. The majority of expat jobs are in Ho Chi Minh city and Hanoi, but some can be found in smaller towns and cities.

Most expats working in Vietnam are in the IT, construction, education, and tourism sectors. There is also a large English teaching community and many NGOs operating out of Vietnam, particularly in Hanoi.

Employment opportunities can be found online through company websites, job portals and recruitment agencies. Expats typically move to Vietnam with a job already in hand. Any expat wishing to work in Vietnam must have a valid work permit.

Learning to speak basic Vietnamese will stand expats in good stead with colleagues and associates as well as enhance a person’s ability to make the most of their spare time when exploring Vietnam and interacting with the local people

Expats working in Vietnam will find that the work environment is similar to Asian countries such as China, South Korea, and Japan. The Vietnamese have a healthy work ethic and are generally hardworking and industrious.

Offices are a formal environment and workers are expected to dress and behave appropriately. Networking is incredibly important in Vietnam and expats will soon find that a broad social group is important when it comes to securing a position or moving up the ladder.

Communal lunches are an important part of working in Vietnam, as is socializing with colleagues after work. These social occasions also provide good opportunities for expats to network and interact with their Vietnamese counterparts.

Companies in Vietnam have a very hierarchical structure and expats are expected to show the necessary respect towards their seniors in the workplace. Punctuality is valued and lateness is seldom tolerated. Expats are therefore advised to arrive early for meetings.
