Career Days
Dedicated training days with recruitment professionals
Career Day MSc 1 "Raconte toi" - Preparing application tools for internship and job searches
September 25, 2026 in-class from 9:00 am to 4:30 pmOrganized for first-year students, this day focuses on needs related to the search for internships, apprenticeships and jobs. Job search techniques, tools - CV and cover letter - and recruitment interviews are covered. Students are coached directly by some 15 recruitment professionals (including executives from Airbus, Credit Agricole, Orange, etc.) in small group workshops. The aim of this day is twofold: to give each student the CV and cover letter they need to respond to a job offer, and to help them succeed in their recruitment interview.
Career Day MSc 2 "Raconte ton entreprise" (Tell us about your company)
October 3, 2024 from 9:00 am to 5:00 pmOnce the research tools acquired in the first year have been put to use, students take part in a second day to learn about the institutional discourse of companies in the region. In the form of conferences lasting around an hour, they attend presentations by professionals who inform them about their company's culture, its different professions, and career development opportunities. Examples of career paths are also presented. The aim of this day is to facilitate exchanges between students and HR managers and/or alumni from various companies in the region, ranging from fast-growing SMEs (Virtual Expo, Ponant, Mychezmoi, Avis Vérifiés) to large groups (CMA CGM, Airbus).
