Skayl, the specialist in recruiting and managing Franco-German talents
Are you an executive, running a business in France or Germany which you’d like to develop by recruiting new employees from the neighbouring country? Perhaps you’re a candidate looking for a new job with a Franco-German dimension?
Ideally located in the tri-border area (France-Germany-Switzerland), Skayl is the perfect recruitment partner for you.
French-German recruitment
Are you a France-based subsidiary of a German or Swiss group looking to recruit key personnel for your organisation? Perhaps you’re a French or German employer seeking to develop commercial relationships and recruit sales staff from over the border? Or you may be a French, German or Swiss company, aiming to establish a start-up in the neighbouring country to launch operations there?
We identify, approach, attract and convince the bicultural profiles that you’re looking for!
Our knowledge of the differences between German-speaking countries and France ensures a spirit of openness, transparency and collaboration in exchanges between companies, candidates and recruiters.
French employers need a sophisticated strategy to recruit talent in the German market. Companies in this powerful industrial country encourage long-term employee loyalty by offering active internal mobility policies. German unemployment rates are also very low. We help match your specifications to the reality of available profiles in this tight employment market and advise you on the most effective communication media and recruitment methods.
We also advise on current salary levels and other elements that should be highlighted when targeting German candidates, including ‘employer branding’ and any additional benefits offered by the company (funded pension scheme, staff restaurant, childcare, homeworking, flexible hours, parking facilities, company car, social activities, company events, coaching, training, etc.).
This requires extensive preparation by recruiters to offer precise information for attracting and reassuring candidates with high-quality job offers and direct approaches. Applications are generally of a very high standard in the German employment market. Detailed and exhaustive, they include degrees and certificates relating to professional experience and a precise indication of salary expectations and availability. An open dialogue will be maintained with candidates at each stage in the recruitment process.
Franco-German outplacement
Are you an employer, director or HR manager looking to let go of a bilingual employee? Do you wish to offer them personalised outplacement upon leaving your organisation to facilitate their professional repositioning?
Perhaps you’re a cross-border or mobile employee working between France and German-speaking regions? Do you want to redefine your project within a career transition framework?
We support candidates with international profiles looking to reposition themselves in the French and German labour markets.
Finding a new job in one of these markets means complying with relevant customs and adopting an appropriate professional stance and communication methods. We offer advice on specific points to be considered in each country when compiling job applications, marketing one’s profile or preparing effectively for interviews. Establishing relationships with recruiters on the other side of the border optimises your networking capacities and reemployment potential.
Our Franco-German team is made up of bilingual consultants who have lived in both countries.
We offer expertise on:
- Intercultural differences between France, Germany and Switzerland.
- The most effective methods for recruiting or job-hunting in the relevant country’s labour market.
- Cross-border commuter status in the Upper Rhine Region and, more broadly, social security and tax status for professional mobility between two countries.
