A 2024-2025 recruitment market report recently released by Top CV (a technology-based recruitment platform) reveals that while the labor market in 2024 is experiencing multi-dimensional fluctuations, many industries are projected to continue facing a "talent shortage" in 2025.

Sales/Business remains the industry group with the highest demand for personnel for the third consecutive year.

Survey representatives explain that, in 2024-2025, promoting business operations and market growth is essential (65.2%). To achieve this goal, 47.6% of representatives indicated that Sales/Business will be the priority for recruitment, especially targeting employees with 2-3 years of experience (followed by employees with 1-2 years of experience).

This is understandable as this group directly generates revenue, expands the market, and attracts customers. The larger the scale of the business, the more sales staff are needed to increase market presence and drive business growth.

Following Sales/Business is the IT - Software sector, with recruitment demand primarily focused on candidates with at least 2-3 years of experience and specialists with 3-5 years of experience (12.2%). Other sectors following include Marketing/Communication/Advertising (9.3%), Customer Service (5.1%), and Human Resources (4%).

Compared to the 2023-2024 recruitment market report, demand for Sales/Business has consistently maintained the top position and has increased significantly, rising by about 8.3%.

Meanwhile, compared to 2023, IT - Software remains a sector with high personnel demand; however, the demand has decreased slightly (by about 1%). This indicates that the "IT - Software personnel fever" is showing signs of slowing down, while candidates with 2-3 years of experience are being prioritized for recruitment (compared to specialists).
