Recently, the Vietnam Airports Corporation (ACV), the contractor for the Long Thanh International Airport project, announced a large-scale recruitment event at Vietnam’s largest airport. The event offers over 3,000 job vacancies, providing attractive employment opportunities for locals in Dong Nai and neighboring areas.
The program is scheduled to take place on August 23rd at the Service Center in An Phuoc, Dong Nai.
According to ACV, during this recruitment day, units will introduce their hiring needs and requirements for key positions in phase 1 of the Long Thanh International Airport project. Attendees can learn detailed information about the positions, submit applications, and participate in preliminary interviews with the businesses.
Notably, the units and related enterprises have a diverse range of positions available that do not require prior experience and offer comprehensive training. These positions include technical, cargo, baggage, check-in, cleaning, and catering services, among others.
The participating units in this recruitment drive include Vietjet Aviation Joint Stock Company, Vietnam Airport Ground Services Company (VIAGS), Saigon Ground Services Company Limited (SAGS), Vietnam Airlines Aviation Joint Stock Company (VACS), Vietnam In-flight Supply Joint Stock Company (VINACS), Tan Son Nhat Airport Services Joint Stock Company (SASCO), and Vietnam Aviation Academy (VAA).
ACV, in particular, is seeking to fill approximately 140 positions. Many of these positions are not directly related to aviation, such as legal, administrative, accounting, medical, driving, and supervisory roles. Furthermore, many of the positions do not require a high level of education, as a high school diploma is sufficient to apply. Local workers are also given preferential consideration.
ACV’s leadership representative stated that the company prioritizes employing locals from Dong Nai, especially those who have given up their land to support the construction of the airport.

The aircraft will taxi into the completed terminal through the passenger boarding bridge system, marking the completion of the first phase of the project.
The Long Thanh International Airport is a key national project of Vietnam, with a total investment of over $16 billion. The airport is expected to welcome its first technical flight on December 19th and commence commercial operations in early 2026. In its initial phase, the airport will have a maximum capacity of 25 million passengers and 1.2 million tons of cargo per year.
Upon the completion of the entire project by 2050, the Long Thanh International Airport is expected to serve up to 100 million passengers and 5 million tons of cargo annually. According to a recent report by OAG, a travel and aviation monitoring and statistics organization, the Long Thanh International Airport is likely to join the club of 100-million-passenger airports in the next decade.
In reality, by 2024, there were only five airports worldwide that reached the 100-million-passenger mark. These include Atlanta (USA), Dubai (UAE), Tokyo Haneda (Japan), London Heathrow (UK), and Dallas/Fort Worth (USA)
