Let's hear the real stories from our Management Associates!
"2 years of intensive on-the-job training through 4 different rotations paved the way to a solid foundation in retail, covering operation, sales development, & brand management. The highlight of my journey was the 6-month rotation in Thailand, which notably expanded my horizons in brand management, a field that later ignited my passion. By taking on projects centering around building the momentum for a private label & maintaining the growth of an established brand. All to significantly hone my skills & get ready for the official role ahead as a Brand Manager for HOKA Vietnam."

"It's truly incredible to reflect on how far I've come in such a short time! Within the first month of starting my journey as a Management Associate at Central Retail in Vietnam, I've gained a clear understanding of the company's overall business. It's an exciting and fast-growing organization that's bursting with opportunities. As a fresh graduate, I never imagined getting the chance to work on important projects, make decisions, and have a real impact on the company. I eagerly anticipate the exciting journey ahead, and I believe the best is yet to come!"

"I have been fortunate that my Management Associate journey at CRV has been closely tied to digitalization projects, each rotation has broadened my perspective on the retail industry through a modern, logical, and systematic lens.
With a scope of work deeply connected to data, I’ve learned to transform raw numbers into business ideas and strategies, thereby creating clear value for both customers and the company.
With dedicated guidance from mentors and an open-minded environment, I feel grateful to learn, contribute, and grow every day on this journey."
