Your career review has a new name, schedule, and ambition: 20 minutes to find out what to expect.
Every four years now, French law gives you a moment set apart: not an appraisal or performance review, but protected time to think about your career—your skills, your wishes, what comes next. This module presents the new career review, the Entretien de Parcours Professionnel, for employees and managers, to make it a real opportunity rather than a formality.
