US – CareerBuilder buys Vietnamese job board, search firm

March 26, 2013

CareerBuilder acquired VON (the Vietnam Online Network), which owns and operates KiemViec.com and HR Vietnam. KiemViec.com is one of the largest job boards in Vietnam with more than 1,000,000 registered job seekers. HR Vietnam provides a job board, executive search, payroll management and recruitment of temporary staff, according to its website.

“The acquisition of VON provides CareerBuilder an accelerated entry into the Vietnam market — an important step in our Asian expansion,” said Hunter Arnold, president of CareerBuilder Asia Pacific. “The growth potential is high as we combine VON’s expertise with Vietnamese employers and CareerBuilder’s global reach and advanced technology and services.”

CareerBuilder has a presence in 60 markets worldwide after this deal.
