Description
The car manufacturer PSA Peugeot-Citroën has decided to recruit 150 employees in its car dealership in France. The employment contracts are expected to be permanent. The company has stated that employees whose profile is of interest will be offered training and therefore experience and qualifications in the automotive sector is not a prerequisite. The company intends to recruit for positions such as sales, delivery and manufacturing services. Over the last two years, PSA Peugeot-Citroën has announced three employment reduction plans, with 400 losses in January 2014, 300 in September 2014 and 300 in June 2015.
