In that gap, initiative, creative thinking, critical thinking ability and information selection skills are all decisive factors to avoid being "defeated" by AI.
When technology changes the job search journey
Episode 1 of the series Voices of Galaxy - Samsung's inspirational film series "Rising with Vietnam" left many echoes when telling the story of Vy - a new graduate struggling in her job search journey, from a dead end to daring to try a new approach thanks to the companionship of Galaxy AI and Gemini Live. Just by re-analyzing her CV, suggesting strengths, pointing out shortcomings and encouraging her to make a self-introduction video , the AI tool helped Vy turn obscurity into personality, turn anxiety into confidence. However, that story reflects a larger reality: the recruitment market is more fierce than ever, and AI is becoming a catalyst that both paves the way and puts more pressure on the young generation entering life.

Recruitment market: Many opportunities but also many challenges
Looking at the figures, it is clear that the competition is not easy. According to the Department of Labor, War Invalids and Social Affairs of Ho Chi Minh City, in the period of 2021 - 2025, the city needs about 310,000 - 330,000 more jobs [1] each year, of which 135,000 to 140,000 are completely new positions. In the first quarter of 2024 alone, a survey of 14,300 businesses showed that the need to recruit people with a university degree or higher accounts for 21.3%. This figure shows both great opportunities and pressure when tens of thousands of graduates each year compete for jobs that are not abundant.
In technology fields such as UI/UX design or Product Design, salaries range from 5 million to 60 million VND/month depending on experience, according to the Telos report[2], but that comes with increasingly high skill requirements, from product thinking to the ability to quickly adapt to new technology. The job market is not lacking in opportunities, but the door is always open only to those who are outstanding enough.
Rich in tools but not necessarily a "happy" experience
The prevalence of AI makes it seem like today’s young generation has more advantages than previous generations. They have virtual assistants that can edit CVs, simulate interviews, and even suggest new skills. However, “rich in tools” does not mean that the job search journey becomes easy. On the contrary, because AI has become the common standard, the pressure to be different is greater.
A resume now has to pass not only human filters, but also automated filters. An interview requires not only fluent answers, but also creativity and individuality that AI cannot replicate. The essence of the job search journey and knowing yourself, knowing what you want and knowing how to tell that story remains the same.
Growing with AI: Opportunities for those who dare to take the initiative
The most important thing that Voices of Galaxy wants to portray through Vy's story is not that AI will replace everything, but how a young person dares to take the initiative to try, dares to change and dares to be different. That spirit is the decisive factor in an increasingly fierce job market.
Once the foundation of self-awareness is solid, technology will become a powerful ally. Galaxy AI and Gemini Live, with their deep understanding of Vietnamese, can help each candidate highlight their own story, increase confidence and expand opportunities. But AI only maximizes its value when users are proactive, learn and constantly adapt.

Episode 1 of Voices of Galaxy ends with the image of an ordinary girl who is brave enough to change. In the context of a fiercely competitive job market, where the university recruitment rate accounts for more than 20% but the number of graduates is much larger, the message becomes clear: opportunities will not come by themselves, but you can absolutely create them. Technology does not replace human aspirations, but it amplifies those who know how to act. And that is the deepest meaning of “rising up with Vietnam” in the AI era: a generation that dares to be proactive, dares to take advantage of technology, and dares to write their own success story to develop with the country.
Continuing the story of "Honoring Vietnamese values" conveyed in the first half of 2025, Samsung goes further into urging practical actions, empowering silent but extraordinary efforts to speak up, inspiring each individual to strive together through the Voices of Galaxy campaign.
Voices of Galaxy is an inspirational film series consisting of 10 stories, 10 voices of characters with different starting points but are writing their own journey of "growing up" with the companionship of Galaxy AI and Gemini Live. From there, the campaign inspires Vietnamese people to take bold steps to develop, create and act, to elevate and spread national values, so that these values shine brighter on the global stage.
