大咖福利影院

Hello Julien,
I am a bit curious about why you asked about job opportunities in Buon Ma Thuot city (BMTC). I've been living in Ho Chi Minh city for more than 6 years, Buon Ma Thuot is is my hometown, and there are a few things that I want to share with you:
Firstly, the economy in BMTC has been developing for just several years, previously, it had some state-owned companies related to rubber and coffee industry (the soil and climate here are suitable for rubber and coffee trees to grow the best. One thing you should know: it's very hard to get a job in state-owned companies if you don't have any relative or friend working there to introduce you to the company. Or you have to pay money for being given a job here. This is the reason why I had to go to HCMC for my study and applied for a job here, not coming back to my hometown.
Secondly, these days there have been some companies found and organized by individual, however, the job opportunities is very tough because they just want to hire their relatives, friends to work for them as a help and support for their people. And if you have a chance to work here, the salary is horrible, and you don't feel respected at all.
Alright, get back to your concerned question, I would say that: the job opportunities in BMTC is terrible. This land is blessed by God with amazing soil and water and the climate for rubber and coffee industries. If you have a plan to start your business here in those industries, this is a right place for you to come. If you want to apply for a job here, you should be ready for being unemployed for several months, I guess. Or if you are a dynamic person and want to work in tourism industry, there are some opportunities in BMTC for you, you can work for a tourism company as a tour guide with a so-so salary.
If you have chance to get to my hometown, I'm happy to be your host. I'm always excited to help people to explore my hometown. I can be reached at Skype ID: huong2709

torres_tran summed it up nicely.聽 A wonderful area, with wonderful people...for the most part.聽

How does the area that contributes so heavily to Vietnam's status as the world's #2 supplier of coffee end up with so many companies that are teetering on the verge of bankruptcy?聽 Neopotism, croneyism and rascalism, combined with a poor grasp of capitalism/ the free market...or sumpthin' like that!聽 聽

Anyway, on top of that, BMTC is still one of the most beautiful places in Vietnam, this city is worth considering for your journey if you are those who want something wild, natural and tranquil. Some of the areas in the city still keep its nature and tradition, you will be able to discover much more about the cultures of Ede race, H'mong race... in the city.

Yeah, I spent a week there last year waiting for a job that was poorly planned.聽 By the time the week had passed I was ready to be my own guide, straight out of the province...

It would have been nice to have been able to spend more time there.聽 The vast majority of the people I met were very nice and handled seeing packs of foreign teachers suddenly roaming about very well!

Hi,

Someone else has an idea about the Top hiring sectors in Buon Ma Thuot please?

Thank you

Hello, I'm a U.S. Citizen living in BMT and I love it here. I can help give advice on jobs in the language sector as a few new schools have opened and there are relatively few foreign (read: native) teachers here.

Keep in mind the authorities are quite strict here. You will need all proper documentation and an employer to work here. Background check, certs, degrees, etc.

However, as a city, I love it here. The weather is great and the air is fresh. It's a very affordable city and everywhere I go I am greeted with smiles. I lived here for six months last year, and left for another opportunity in Vinh. I can't tell you how much I regret that decision. I'm very happy to be back now.

However, outside the ESL community, I can't be of much assistance. As a previous poster said, nepotism is quite embedded here.

Priscilla: I understand you are trying to ferment some chat about BMT but, at the same time, you are demonstrating a lack of knowledge about DakLak.

DakLak, whose capital is Buon Ma Thuot, is a farming area specialising in coffee, tea, rubber and pepper. The farmers incomes a4e not great.

The larger tea and coffee plantations are owned by commercial entities whose management, presently, are predominantly of German origin.

The other notable resource is water: DakLak hosts the headstocks and generators that feed the 500KV grid line that powers TP HCM.

All the Central Highlands boat magnificent churches, generally of wooden construction, which are 'tolerated' by Ha Noi. There is the old French colonial regional jail, the site of much torture and head-lopping in colonial times. A passing visit to the BMT fire station will reveal there are more fire engines in camouflage - primarily used for 'riot' control -聽 and three red ones.

Unless you you have an interest in waterfalls, BMT and DakLak offers minimal tourism or employment opportunities. There is an old regional French jail where they brought French culture to BMT in the form of a guillotine.

BMT houses substantial numbers of military and quasi-military forces, as demonstrated by the large number of barracks.

We have a few hotels, quite a few of which are owned by the province and allegedly rated as '5-star'.

I own a company in DakLak, and my wife a hotel, and I can tell you BMT has extremely limited opportunities for employment. One 'industry' involving Foreigners is the jail business - with wide open, remote spaces, our nationally-operated jails are quite secure without many fences. Many of the Foreigners were involved in recreational drug smuggling.
