KUALA LUMPUR - The Vietnamese Student Association in Korea will host an international student job fair at Ewha Womans University in Seoul on April 19.

The event, titled “International Student Job Fair — JOB FAIR 2026,” is aimed at connecting international students with prospective employers, as reported by The Korea Times.

It also seeks to help participants explore career pathways and develop practical workplace skills.

“The event will serve as a platform for students to exchange entrepreneurial ideas and experiences while strengthening practical competencies such as resume preparation, interview skills and adapting to international work environments.

“It will provide opportunities for students to meet potential employers and explore internship and job openings offered by participating companies,” the organisers said in a press release.

The event is expected to attract not only Vietnamese students but also participants from other countries.

It will be co-organised by the Vietnamese Student Association in Korea, the Vietnamese Embassy in Korea and VIJOB, a Vietnamese job portal.

In addition to recruitment and networking sessions, the programme will feature an entrepreneurship competition.

The competition is designed to encourage innovation among international students.

Prizes include a top award of 300,000 won, a second-place prize of 200,000 won and a merit award of 150,000 won.

Two additional encouragement prizes of 100,000 won each will also be awarded.

Organisers said applications must be submitted by April 8.

“This will also be a platform to strengthen ties between Korea and Vietnam while enhancing the role of the Vietnamese student community in Korea,” the organisers said.
