The event, the second of its kind, enabled students to learn about job opportunities while affording Kyushu firms a chance to recruit qualified students.
This year, the number of participating firms rose three-fold, namely Kyushu Electric Power, AEON Kyushu, Kyushu Engineering and Okura hotel. Meanwhile, the number of students at the event also doubled.
The exchange was an annual activity of the Kyushu – Vietnam Friendship Association to introduce companies in Kyushu and upcoming projects in Vietnam, as well as attract more Vietnamese students to local firms after graduation.
The event was co-hosted by the Kyushu – Vietnam Friendship Association, the Vietnamese Consulate General in Fukuoka, the prefecture administration and the Kyushu Economic Federation.
