Our mission
We are there at every step, to guide you towards your professional goal
The origin of this project arose from an observation: hospitality, restaurant, culinary arts, and sommelier students have great difficulty finding quality internships; likewise, companies have great difficulty recruiting trainees that best match their philosophy and the position being offered.
Talent Developer‘s strength is its ability to facilitate the link between students and companies by creating student/mentor pairs that meet everyone’s needs perfectly.
66%
of young people believe they are unprepared to find an internship and a first job
20%
of graduates are able to attain the positions they really qualify for if they have good quality internships
Professional
network
is perceived as the primary means of recruitment in the hospitality and gastronomy industry
Our main mission is to allow you to succeed in your internship or apprenticeship, to develop your professional network, and to flourish in your profession.
