The monthlong traveling recruitment drive by the luxury conglomerate concluded in Paris on Wednesday.
“In a country where too many of our youths experience difficulties finding their way, their future and what they want to do, the simple fact of giving [them] an opportunity to discover these careers is precious,” said Paris’ first deputy mayor Emmanuel Grégoire, noting that these skills that “made the excellence of the [LVMH] group also made the excellence of Paris.”
Since its inception in 2014, the Institut des Métiers d’Exception has grown from a first group of 28 apprentices in three specialties, to a cohort of 1,400 people trained across 30 different vocational tracks and six countries. “Too often, we hear that youths are detached from everything, lack direction or interest. But it’s our references that falter and don’t speak to them,” he said in an email, adding that the format of the event had “removed shyness and hang-ups to turn [candidates] into actors of the launch of their projects.”
