The mastery of French, new management issue<

Write "developer" with a single "P" on your CV when you apply seriously the chances of being hired, even in times of high-tech skills shortage."We make sure that algorithms include a CV or a job offer even with a single" P "or two" L "to" developer "", relativizes Thomas Allaire, data manager at Hellowork, but, at the time offinal choice, the human resources manager is less tolerant than algorithm.

The Voltaire-Ipsos barometer, published Monday October 25, reveals that, for 86 % of recruiters, the mastery of written and oral expression and spelling has become fundamental, because the faults of employees cost the company too much."Sixty-six percent of employers are faced daily with the shortcomings of their teams, with very important repercussions on their credibility and their professional efficiency and, consequently, on the reputation, productivity and even the financial performance of companies",Faches the Voltaire-Ipsos barometer.

French has even become a priority selection criterion on English.Eighty percent of recruiters rule out candidates with poor quality of French written expression, when only 30 % reject those who do not master the language of Shakespeare.Directed to 2,500 decision-makers (HR, recruiters, managers), interviewed in two waves in May and September, the Voltaire-Ipsos barometer reflects the practices of intermediate size companies (ETI), and small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs)more than 50 employees from all sectors.

La maîtrise du français, nouvel enjeu de management

Recruiters have always been attentive to the French level.As of 2011, a study by Robert Half showed that 82 % of them were sensitive to spelling and that 35 % put the CV on the basket from three faults.Then, in 2016, it was from the first lack of spelling in the CV that the candidate was dismissed, according to a study by Christelle Martin-Lacroix, researcher at the University of Toulon.But, in 2021, career development was threatened."For more than 80 % of employers, grammar or conjugation faults are unacceptable to grant a promotion," says the Voltaire-Ipsos barometer.

"The level has dropped sharply"

And yet the faults are multiplying in all documents."The level has dropped sharply in recent years, even at the end of the best schools.The more we progress in the company, the greater the representation, and therefore the form. Beaucoup de dirigeants écrivent d’ailleurs plus souvent en anglais, non tant pour un lectorat non francophone que pour éviter des fautes », témoigne Emmanuel Dufour, responsable en recrutement de dirigeants chez Segalen & associés.
