In preparation for its planned expansion in 2014 Lotte Group, developer of the second highest building in Hanoi, is actively recruiting for various positions in the 65-storey building.

Lotte Group is conducting recruitment programs throughout Vietnam to attract top candidates for its operations and achieve their vision for 2018.

On the 24^th and 25^th of October Lotte held seminars to introduce its 6^th official recruitment drive in Vietnam at the Foreign Trade University, Hanoi University, and Hanoi National University. Thousands of students turned out to explore opportunities with the group.

The recruitment process will start in November, and qualified candidates will undergo a 3-month internship after which top workers will be offered a full-time position at the company.

Lotte was founded in 1967 in Korea. It is one of the country’s five biggest conglomerates with earnings of $74.9 billion in 2012.

With a vision to become one of Asia’s top ten global groups by 2018, Lotte has expanded into Vietnam, China, Russia, and Indonesia.

The company entered Vietnam in 1996 and since has invested in food, confectionary, retail, trading, IT, and property development. The company’s Vietnam operation is valued at around $887.5 million with revenues of $264.9 million last year.

Its biggest property development at the moment is the Lotte Center Hanoi and will boast 65 floors and 5 basement levels.

Once completed, the company monument will include a Lotte Mart, department stores, Grade A offices and serviced residences, a hotel, and observation deck and will be a prominent landmark in Hanoi. It is expected to open in 2014.
