OVER 50 NATIONALITIES<br />

IN THE GROUPE <strong>SEB</strong><br />

MANAGEMENT COMMUNITY<br />

Participating in student forums<br />

helps to make <strong>the</strong> Group better<br />

known as a potential employer.<br />

Welcome seminars<br />

help new managers<br />

from different countries<br />

to discover <strong>the</strong> Group<br />

and start to build up<br />

<strong>the</strong>ir relational network.<br />

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.”
