« This is when I was finishing my studies of Haut Enseignement Commercial and preparing my oral exams to enter one of the very high-demanding French Business School that I met a consultant specialized in recruitment who helped me a lot at this very decisive step of my career. I found out how recruiting someone for a company might continuously influence the future of a firm, an institution, or a person ! I then got passionate about this job and tried to really understand what working as a consultant means. My choice was to start with two successful operational experiences at the service of global manufacturers, leaders in their industries. How to take part to the continuous and profitable growth of our economy and our firms and how to contribute to the development of candidates that we recruit – in a long-term manner ? This is the equation on which we are working every day, with the greatest passion »
