With the need to recruit 337 teachers and staff this year, after the first round of recruitment, the Ho Chi Minh City Department of Education and Training recruited 297 people, reaching a rate of about 85%. Of which, there are 254 teachers (nearly 96.58%) and 43 staff (55.4%).

According to the assessment of the staff of the Department of Organization and Personnel of the Ho Chi Minh City Department of Education and Training, this year, for most of the teaching positions, Ho Chi Minh City has had candidates participating and being recruited, including subjects that have been difficult for many years such as fine arts (10 teachers); music (8 teachers); English (31 teachers); information technology (12 teachers)...

Some subjects with high demand for teachers such as history (45 teachers), mathematics (33), national defense education (22), physical education (18), geography (18)... have also been fully recruited.

However, in the staff positions, except for the positions of cashier and librarian, which have been fully recruited, in the remaining positions, including information technology staff, academic affairs, accounting, laboratory equipment, clerical, etc., the candidates registered for recruitment are not able to meet the actual needs.

The leaders of the Ho Chi Minh City Department of Education and Training assessed that the teacher recruitment work of Ho Chi Minh City this year has improved a lot when there are a large number of candidates applying for most of the recruitment positions, helping Ho Chi Minh City select quality candidates who meet the requirements of the job positions and the requirements of the city's education sector.

However, the staff positions have not been filled to the full. An official from the HCM City Department of Education and Training said that although the salary of school staff has been increased, it is still relatively low. Meanwhile, the workload is high. This is one of the difficulties in recruiting school staff positions.
