It claims to be the largest human resources solution company in Vietnam with over more than 10,000 active staff.

Trust Tech stated, “We have been actively recruiting Vietnamese engineers in Japan. Our strategic partnership with L&A will offer Vietnamese engineers who return to Vietnam after working in Japan an opportunity to be outsourced to a Japanese company based in Vietnam through L&A, making use of the skills they acquired in Japan.”
