ENLARGING THE POOL Of CANDIDATES<br />
To make it more attractive to potential candidates, <strong>the</strong> Group<br />
redesigned <strong>the</strong> Careers Area of its corporate website in 2010.<br />
The new look highlights originality, <strong>the</strong> human dimension and<br />
au<strong>the</strong>nticity. It features more than thirty testimonies from staff on<br />
different aspects of <strong>the</strong> Group’s human resources management,<br />
and how it puts its values to work daily. Visitors to <strong>the</strong> website can<br />
consult job vacancies and submit an application online via a new<br />
recruitment feature. In 2011, it is planned to launch a dozen new<br />
‘local’ international career sites.<br />
GETTING Off TO A GOOD START<br />
Once new managers are hired, <strong>the</strong> Group helps to orient <strong>the</strong>m<br />
and plan <strong>the</strong>ir career within <strong>the</strong> company. Revised in 2010, <strong>the</strong><br />
orientation process now extends over six months. It includes an<br />
introductory seminar with <strong>the</strong> presence of senior executives,<br />
sponsor pairing, a visit to a factory and major retail client, and a<br />
feed-back report drawn up by <strong>the</strong> new recruit.<br />
ATTRACTING YOUNG TALENT<br />
Daniele Collari, International Campus Manager<br />
With catchy slogans and offbeat<br />
snapshots of <strong>Groupe</strong> <strong>SEB</strong> staff, <strong>the</strong><br />
new careers area of our corporate<br />
website targets mainly young<br />
candidates.<br />
“At student forums, young people are attracted<br />
by our brands and products, familiar to <strong>the</strong>m in<br />
<strong>the</strong>ir daily lives – though <strong>the</strong>y do not always<br />
connect <strong>the</strong>m with <strong>Groupe</strong> <strong>SEB</strong>. They are<br />
usually surprised to learn of <strong>the</strong> extent and<br />
dynamism of <strong>the</strong> Group. This is why we want<br />
to make ourselves better known to leading<br />
business and engineering schools as a prospective<br />
employer. In 2010, we concentrated<br />
our efforts on France, before extending our<br />
campaign internationally in 2011. As well as being present at more<br />
student seminars, we also develop educational partnerships with<br />
selected institutions with a view to developing studies. Two new<br />
projects were initiated in this way on <strong>the</strong> <strong>the</strong>me of innovation. Our<br />
objective is to increase <strong>the</strong> number and quality of applicants, particularly<br />
for internships, so that we can develop a pool of talent to draw from<br />
for potential first-job recruitment.”
