"We especially appreciate the fact that MOD'SPE Paris offers a very thorough as well as realistic education that covers the numerous aspects of many fashion fields.

We have found MOD'SPE Paris graduates to have a very professional attitude. They are flexible, possess a very good fashion culture and work well with designers.

« As specialized recruiters, we associate with the industry's major players: young designer brands, luxury brands, manufacturers and retail chains.  For each of them, today's economic imperatives are   clearly expressed through product marketing, supply-chain management and retailing.  Product marketing is the key to optimizing their brand's positioning and product offer in different markets while the buyers, logistics coordinators, quality controllers, etc. of their supply chains contribute to a better control of margins, something that has become increasingly complex with the predominance of off-shore production.  Finally, their retail networks must rely on effective professionals such as retail coordinators and visual merchandisers to face the challenges of  the inevitable and expensive management of turnover growth and brand image.

Thanks to an education tuned into today's economic reality, MOD'SPE Paris graduates are able to respond quickly and efficiently to issues arising from these recent problems.  I think that the students' considerable adaptability which at times is even more like anticipation, is the direct result of the school's continual interaction with industry professionals. Our annual academic commission for example, is a perpetual review of possibilities with which to optimize the different curriculums. This has lead notably to MOD'SPE Paris' pursuit of a more international slant through partnerships with schools, companies and even industries abroad as well as the creation of a postgraduate program in international marketing with a concentration in retailing.

But it is in effect the MOD'SPE Paris alumni, through the exemplarity and diversity of their careers, that best illustrate the success of a MOD'SPE Paris education. They have come to occupy key positions and are sought after professionals recognized for their efficiency, pragmatism, versatility, and open minds.  From Galliano or Yves Saint Laurent to Armand Thiery or Système U, from group manager to international buyer or account executive, they are among the central players of the fashion world. 

 As job recruiters, we share a close and dependable partnership with the school and its students that is enriching and constructive.  I'm very proud to be one of MOD'SPE Paris' collaborators.»
