History

Our founder, Mr. Stewart Hoe, first visited Vietnam during a Singapore business mission organized by International Enterprise Singapore in September 2009. He was excited with the energy of Vietnam’s large and young population but was puzzled by the skills gap between the employers and the local talent pool. He was moved by his passion to assist the local populace in finding suitable jobs and he established a 100% foreign-owned management consulting enterprise in Ho Chi Minh City, i.e. A8 Resource Co., Ltd. during November 2010.

A8 Resource subsequently extended its services into Executive Search during September 2011 as Mr. Hoe wished to formally implement consulting solutions into this field where he felt our teams are able to facilitate the motto of “Great Career, Great Living” for all the people we assist.

This was a challenge as a skills gap is not easily fulfilled.

Hence, Mr Hoe sought an alliance in January 2013 with Next Phase Leadership LLC in the United States (www.NextPhaseLeadership.com) to introduce a unique recruitment technology based on the Four Phases of Performance and Contribution© model.

As a result, we were able to implement a recruiting model to identify the Phase of Performance that our clients desire to hire and source out the suitable candidates for your interview. It is our founder’s fervent wish to provide practical-based services to enhance the skills of the local working population.

In the next phase of the enterprise’s development, we had established software development services in June 2018 in providing clients with support on technology and staffing solutions.
