Reinforcing and developing partnerships with institutes of higher education

Close ties to students

Groupe BPCE develops national partnerships with target universities, business schools and schools of engineering, and forges close relationships with local institutions.
To recruit the talent of the future, the group offers a range of internships and work-study programs to help students to get to know its companies, its different business activities and corporate values.

We recruit a large number of interns and students on work-study programs in all our business areas although the largest proportion is in sales.

For Groupe BPCE, this represents an opportunity to allow students to discover its companies and business activities along with the sheer diversity of its professions. It is also a particularly efficient way to identify, and to train, those who will soon become its future employees.

As a result, it is extremely important to offer rewarding, well-managed assignments with an element of responsibility and to provide the students with all the support they need to become successfully integrated into the company.

A large number of initiatives are taken all over France in the form of special events, partnerships, and opportunities to meet former graduates working for BPCE.

Every year, the group’s different companies welcome more than 4,000 interns and students on work-study contracts.
