What works well?

I would say the first answer once the profile is selected for a position

What could be improved?

I should have read the reviews before starting a process with this company. I've had two experiences with them, and in both cases, their recruitment management was deplorable. First experience in October 2023 for a position in Geneva: after several interviews, including a face-to-face one that cost me time, energy and money, I never heard back. No explanation, no follow-up, despite my investment in the process. Second experience in December 2024: very positive interview with a recruiter who assured me of a rapid return. Several reminders from me later, still no sign of life. It's a shame, because on paper, a company that claims to support young profiles in their professional integration is a good thing. But in reality, the way they proceed is a real lack of respect and a waste of time for candidates.

What works well?

I have no idea, since I'm too old to apply...

What could be improved?

Recruitment takes absolutely no account of more mature profiles. Personally, I no longer reply to any advertisement even if the position corresponds to me in every way, because recruitment is only aimed at young graduates... Age discrimination should be banned
