Human resource management is the art of optimizing human capital, enabling Vietnamese enterprises to achieve sustainable development. Three critical aspects—recruitment, placement, and talent retention—require in-depth analysis to enhance operational efficiency.

The Art of Human Resource Management
Human resource management involves establishing processes, systematizing tasks, and ensuring efficient business operations even in the absence of managers. This requires clarity in roles, authority, and responsibilities, particularly for senior personnel.
Methods for Recruitment, Selection, and Termination
Effective Recruitment
Recruitment is the foundation for building a high-quality workforce.
- Professional Process: Implement a process including job postings, resume screening, interviews, and probation periods. A Ho Chi Minh City-based company reduced recruitment time by 30% by adopting multi-stage interviews.
- Probation and Apprenticeship: Assessing actual performance during a 1-3 month probation period reduces the risk of hiring errors by 25%.
Employee Selection
Selection involves removing underperforming employees based on performance metrics.
- KPI Evaluation: Use specific performance indicators (KPIs) such as individual revenue or task completion rates. A survey found that 35% of businesses improved performance through KPI-based selection.
- Transparent Process: Provide warnings and training support to ensure compliance with Vietnam’s Labor Code.
- Impact: Effective selection enhances workforce quality and reduces operational burdens.
Employee Termination
Termination must be handled tactfully to minimize conflicts.
- Clear Rationale: Communicate specific reasons (e.g., poor performance or disciplinary violations) and offer transition support, such as job placement assistance. Research shows 20% of terminated employees are satisfied with transparent processes.
- Post-termination Support: Provide severance packages or job referrals to maintain the company’s reputation.
- Impact: Proper termination reduces internal conflicts and protects brand reputation.
Strategies for Optimal Employee Placement
Assigning employees to roles that match their skills maximizes their potential.
- Competency Analysis: Assess skills, interests, and experience through tests or in-depth interviews.
- Strategic Task Assignment: Assign tasks based on strengths, e.g., placing strong communicators in sales roles.
- Flexible Adjustments: Monitor performance after three months and reassign roles if needed, reducing turnover due to role mismatch by 15%.
The Art of Attracting and Retaining Talent
Attracting Talent
Attracting talent requires compelling strategies.
- Competitive Policies: Offer competitive salaries, equity options, and career advancement opportunities.
- Proactive Recruitment: Use headhunters or alumni networks to reach high-potential candidates, reducing search time by 20%.
- Impact: Effective recruitment positions businesses as market leaders.
Retaining Talent
Retaining talent is critical for long-term success.
- Clear KPIs and Rewards: Set transparent KPI goals with fair rewards, increasing employee satisfaction by 50%.
- Positive Workplace Culture: Build an environment where employees feel valued. A survey found that 70% of talent leave due to lack of recognition.
