How to do it?
You will find in this Réfugiés.info sheet all the information you need to register with France Travail.
When your registration is finalized, France Travail sends you the name and email address of your referent advisor.
Your advisor knows your situation and is available to answer your questions, help you with your research and offer training based on your professional objectives.
After registering on the France Travail website, you can create your CV (Curriculum Vitae) in your personal space in "My skills profile and my CVs".
France Travail offers you a free video to help you create your CV. You can watch it here , by logging into your personal space.
You can also write a cover letter for the job you are looking for, with your experiences, skills and motivation to work.
Your CV and cover letter will be visible to recruiting companies. You can also use them to respond directly to a job offer on the site (see step 4).
The photo, age or date of birth, marital status or number of children should not be included on a CV or cover letter, unless expressly requested to use it.
On the France Travail website or in your personal space (“My search for offers” section), you can search for job offers according to the criteria that matter to you:
- The city,
- The level of studies,
- The type of contract (temporary, part-time, full-time, etc.),
- The area of the activity,
- The position sought.
Once you have found an offer that interests you, you have 2 options to send your application:
- send your CV and cover letter to an email address
- share your CV and cover letter registered on France Travail with the person who posted the offer.
Try to adapt and personalize your cover letter to each offer you respond to: use the information from the offer to talk about your skills and your motivation for getting this position.
What happens next?
You can follow up on your candidate area if recruiters have contacted you.
Companies may also call or write to you directly.
If a recruiter offers you an interview, you can contact your France Travail advisor to help you prepare for the interview or find advice online to prepare, if you need it.
With each new experience (work, volunteering, training, etc.), do not forget to update the information on your paper CV and in your France Travail personal space.
