Recruiter pay in Vietnam: Hanoi leads, Hanoi trails

The Vietnam national median for a recruiter is 430.290.000 ₫ a year. Among 1 metros with observed data, pay runs from about 301.200.000 ₫ in Hanoi to 301.200.000 ₫ in Hanoi (1×).

Recruiters source, screen, and hire talent to meet an organization's needs. Common screening skills include Sourcing, Interviewing, ATS, and Negotiation.

A modeled national band runs about 267.640.400 ₫–629.084.000 ₫ around that midpoint. Licensing and immigration rules are independent of this cash sort. Employment outlook for the occupation is sketched at +6% over a decade — a national demand guess, not a hiring guarantee in every Vietnamese city.

When metro percentiles appear, prefer those over this national midpoint for a named city. Until then, treat 430.290.000 ₫ as a country-level sketch and pressure-test any offer with tax and cost-of-living tools.

Vietnam shows about 3.3% CPI in 2025. A recruiter raise that trails inflation is a real-pay cut even if it still beats last year’s peers. This occupation is also covered in 39 other countries — useful for remote or relocation shortlists, after FX and local tax. Nearby finance & business titles on this site include Accountant, Financial Analyst, Marketing Manager, and Project Manager.
