With the current context, finding an internship turns out to be a very difficult task.
Sandra, student in a school in Toulouse, where she studies in a course “Quality, hygiene, safety, environment (QHSE), had bitter experience of it.
An internship to validate your studies
In order to validate his studies, the young woman of 31, must imperatively complete an internship : “I am a learner in a Toulouse school to validate a QHSE Manager certification”.
152 applications, without success
Despite all the goodwill in the world, none of his requests to companies in the region were successful:
I am at 152 applications (responses to offers, spontaneous applications, etc.) which go unheeded or for which only refusals occur.
It goes on sale on Le Bon Coin
Sandra decided to react with a symbolic action. So she has posted an ad on the peer-to-peer sales site Le Bon Coin : “The situation is so critical that I have come to put myself up for sale on Leboncoin« .
His announcement:
Not without humor in the face of the situation, she offers her services to potential employers, with auctions starting at € 1, here is his message :
To you my dear future employers, Young (but not too much: 31 years old), dynamic (but not too much), motivated (maybe a little too much with this announcement!), I am looking for a position of QHSE or HSE Manager; in short, any position related to this field of activity would satisfy me completely, I am not difficult! I am not a candidate for Koh Lanta either but will do anything to integrate your super box so why not put myself on the raw fish spearfishing diet right now … In transversal skills, I am an excellent pastry chef (history of countering the Koh diet Lanta) which will ensure famous breakfasts but without abusing the break time; I am licensed in water skiing and waterjump so in possession of damn compromising photos to blackmail me with pastries. Regarding salary expectations, I open the auctions at € 1 but for the most tight-lipped, I have a reserve price! Even if my spearfishing and pastry skills are sufficient, I still enclose my CV history of… PS: I was going to forget, I sometimes have ice pony lessons in the evening so I should not be relied on too much at night. – after 7:30 p.m. Looking forward to meeting you masked!
She denounces a situation that goes beyond her personal case
Through this message, she acts as the spokesperson for all students who cannot find an internship : “What happens to people in my case? We hear a lot about the plight of students, but at no point is there a discussion of having to land an internship in the face of the pandemic we are going through. Whether students, high school students, or job seekers, obtaining an internship is extremely difficult or almost impossible at present. “
