Foundations & youth programmes

Young talent doesn't need to be told the rules of the job market one more time — they need to genuinely decode them, and build a posture to put them into practice. Foundations, NGOs and employability or entrepreneurship programmes: here's how I can equip the people you support.

Why I can help you

After several years as a recruiter in a recruitment firm, organising recruitment fairs and recruiting in-house, I kept seeing the same pattern: young people have the diplomas, but not always the keys to sell themselves in an interview — and once hired, many struggle to fit in for lack of soft skills. I step in at these two decisive moments: upstream, preparing young talent for interviews and starting a new role; and inside companies, building an onboarding journey or training new hires on these soft skills — a format that's especially useful for cohort hiring.

  • Employability

    Decoding the job market's unwritten rules

    Understanding how the job market really works, and decoding what recruiters actually look for, beyond the résumé:

    • Building and maintaining a résumé as a tool to showcase yourself, not a formality
    • Decoding a job posting to understand the profile being sought behind the keywords
    • Objectively assessing your own profile — gaps and strengths
    • Building the soft skills expected on the job: proactivity, quality of output, solution orientation, stamina

  • Professional posture

    Settling in and succeeding at work

    A posture-focused programme centred on self-knowledge: identifying your strengths and limits to "perform without burning out" from your very first steps in a company.

  • Young entrepreneurs

    From technical know-how to entrepreneurial leadership

    For young people who, for the most part, have never been employees, yet have to recruit, manage and delegate from the moment they start their company:

    • Adapting the same key soft skills (proactivity, solution orientation, stamina) to an entrepreneurial context, with no prior employee experience to draw on
    • Building ease speaking in public to present your company when pitching or networking
    • Adaptable format: individual, group, workshops — with particular sensitivity to non-standard profiles
