Your recruitment programme

Hauts-de-France has large pools of available workers—over 175,000 jobseekers in industry, logistics and services¬—so you can easily find the people you need to launch your operation. This is in stark contrast to labour shortages in many other European regions, in particular Central and Eastern Europe, which have led to fierce competition for employees.

Our region is also home to a wide range of courses and institutions, offering training in everything from technical skills to advanced degrees. With 9 universities, 40 grandes écoles and a host of professional development courses for experienced workers, you’re sure to find the qualified candidates you need for your day-to-day requirements.

Note that if your business project has potential for large-scale job creation, you can ask regional teams like Nord France Invest and Proch’Emploi to help you line up the candidates you need.

Hiring your first employee

Our candidate identification service can help

Increasingly, we’re helping foreign-owned companies recruit their first employee as they set up in business. Thanks to our region-wide network of partners and our in-depth understanding of the local economic fabric, we can deliver turnkey recruitment solutions.

Example: if your project hinges on finding an employee with very specific profile, you can let NFI handle recruitment for you. For projects that rely on specific HR skillsets, we offer a fee-based skills and key profile identification service that can simplify and centralise your set-up procedures.

How we recruit

Once you’ve provided us with a job description, we begin looking for suitable candidates.

Drawing on the initial round of responses, we then send you a short-list of profiles for interviews. Our privacy policy guarantees 100% confidentiality, and this naturally applies to identifying your employee.
