“How much salary and how to deal with salary?" is of particular interest to graduating students who are eager to learn about it. In response to the student's interest in this issue, at 13:30 on November 4, 2022, Faculty of Economics held a seminar “Salary dealing Skills for newly graduated students” in Room A.608, University of Economics and Law, Vietnam National University, Ho Chi Minh City.

At the beginning of the seminar, Ms. Lan Huong shared her own learning and working process.

Following that, Ms. Duy Thi Lan Huong, who possesses extensive practical experience, presented in detail the issues that students were concerned about. These included current common salaries in the labor market, the difference in salaries for specific jobs and welfare in various types of businesses.

In addition, Ms. Lan Huong shared additional "tips" to help newly graduated students find out the revenue associated with their jobs and how to deal with their salary to make it friendly for the employer but still effective. 

The students were really excited about the above information and enthusiastically shared their beginner stories when applying for part-time jobs.
