This recruitment tool and its new application and talent management features will benefit everyone: employees, managers, human resources teams and outside candidates.

This global study enabled all employees of the Group to give feedback about what it is like to work for Saint-Gobain. Its objective is to understand and improve the employee experience at Saint-Gobain; not only at Saint-Gobain Group level but also in the employee-specific work environment level.

An impressive participation!

"A springboard to a great career for young entrepreneurial graduates, V.I.E (International Business Volunteers) is a program that enables young Europeans aged 18 to 28 to work abroad for a French company."

In theory, women and men have the same chances in the recruitment process. But in practice, women unconsciously turn away from certain job offers and their applications are not always studied as thoroughly. What is to blame for this? Cognitive bias plays a major role in the recruitment process.
