Success Story

Discover our success stories

Digitalisation des entretiens avec Zest : Témoignages croisés des Petites Canailles
When we started the project with Zest, our primary goal was to ensure compliance with legal requirements for interviews (to be conducted every two years). Beyond this, we aimed to streamline and optimize the process, encouraging meaningful reflection before interviews for both managers and employees. We wanted to ensure these conversations weren’t just a box-ticking exercise. Previously, we managed this process individually using basic office tools like Excel or PowerPoint, which limited our ability to develop an effective HR action plan.
