First-hand accounts from people who interviewed at Ville de Paris.
Graphic Designer
the interview was a pretty long exchange of questions and answers about my background, skills, and ambitions. I was contacted again after only 3 days, so the process was very fast. I received a positive answer afterwards.
- What are your favorite experiences?
Coordinator
Had a first phone call with my future manager, then an in-person meeting with the director. After that, we communicated via email with the HR department of the sub-directorate to agree on salary. Then, onboarding happened upon signing the contract at the central HR department.
- Can you tell me about your background and what led you to apply for this position?
Conseiller Clientèle
Le processus de recrutement était super. Ils ont super bien expliqué, et on a vu tous les aspects du métier : comment on commence, la formation, le salaire, et une description précise des missions. Ils étaient respectueux. L'entretien était simple, avec des questions pour se présenter, sur le secteur, et sur la motivation. Ils ont aussi donné des exemples de mises en situation.
- Could you introduce yourself?
- Tell me about a challenging situation you faced and how you resolved it.
Journalist Writer
HR reached out for an English writer role, as advertised. The ad was in French, but didn't explicitly state French writing skills were needed, even though my CV and cover letter clarified I'm not fluent. I met with the communications directors for print and digital. They explained the job, which I have tons of experience in. Then, they revealed they needed someone to write journalistic articles in French. I said I wasn't comfortable with that unless someone reviewed it before publishing. They stressed its importance and that was it. Total waste of time.
- Tell me about your knowledge regarding the Olympics.
