The HR service Hermès team chose
The Maison Hermès chose MisterBilingue - recruitment agency to find its future bilingual e-commerce support staff. Margaux, recruitment consultant at MisterBilingue, was able to understand the needs of the famous luxury brand and found several rare gems that met the brand’s requirements. In addition, Hermès was able to rely on MisterBilingue's warranty period; if the candidate decides to terminate their trial period, MisterBilingue will replace them for free.
