Karine Hilairet is the head of the aeronautical section of the Industry Apprentice Training Center and will be participating in this type event for the first-time. She was used to attending student fairs and had to revise her strategies. “The offers are more important than the candidates.” So she moved to search for future recruits. “The aeronautical community is passionate. It is up to you to find it. Together, they presented more than 70 offers for professional baccalaureates in the aeronautical industry.
Killian, 17, wants to be a business pilot. Killian was there to see the Patrouille de France performance with his mother, but he keeps his eyes open for his future plans. “I want to become a business pilot but don’t like the preparatory courses to get there. BTS is another option. The young man from Bordeaux is a Cessna 150 pilot for over a year. He plans to make his passion his career and is gathering all the relevant information today.
Dassault Aviation visited Karine Hilairet’s booth to promote its technologies. It was a beautiful display for the French giant, which distributes DVDs and photos to the curious.
