Support programme for professional integration: Skills and Careers
The "Skills and Careers" programme, which supports students in their transition to the workplace, is an integral part of the ESIEE Paris engineering degree programme.
During the three years of the traditional programme, students benefit from real support in personal development in order to define their career plans and to better prepare them for their entry into working life.
Objectives of the programme
Help students succeed in their studies by making them active players in their training
Dynamic workshops in small groups (16-18 students)
Prepare students for entering the professional world by raising their awareness of personal development
Preparation for the engineering profession and the necessary skills: empathy, positive communication, stress management, inclusion and diversity.
Engage students by showcasing their talents
Focus on technical skills and soft skills. Progressive development of their career plans: drafting a CV and cover letter, pitching, role-playing recruitment interviews.
A programme supervised by coaches and experts
The workshops are led by personal development professionals, HR staff from the school's partner companies, but also speakers from other backgrounds, such as coaches from APEC for example. ESIEE Paris alumni from different sectors of activity give talks in dedicated lecture halls to raise awareness of the realities of the engineering profession and the importance of networking.
Skills and Careers
The Skills and Careers programme supports all full-time ESIEE Paris engineering students as they prepare to enter the workforce. On the one hand, it offers coaching workshops focused on self-awareness, addressing topics such as values, talents and self-esteem. On the other hand, it prepares students for their professional integration through sessions dedicated to CVs, recruitment interviews, salary negotiation, and employee rights and duties.Role-playing exercises in small groups are also organised to work on cross-disciplinary skills such as conflict management, conducting meetings and public speaking.
