Between the desires of professionals and young graduates to better reconcile personal and professional life, and the difficulties of convincing certain profiles in tension, companies are adapting their recruitment strategies.
Thus, according to Indeed, five times more French companies than in 2019 offer teleworking in their job offers. Only 1.8% did so 4 years ago compared to 8.9% today. In comparison, in Germany 14.4% do so.
However, and this is a paradox, “candidates’ use of teleworking-related keywords in searches on Indeed remains quite marginal,” with a rate of 0.7%.

According to the specialist, only in the United States is the proportion of searches for terms for remote offers (9.1%) higher than the proportion of publications that mention them (8.1%).
It should be remembered that, if we look at current figures, France is, however, one of the countries where working from home is least adopted.
According to one study Ifo and Econpol Europe, French employees telecommuting 0.6 days per week on average compared to 0.9 days globally.
If employees wanted to telework more, in reality this system still faces typically French cultural resistance from management.
“While many recruiters want their staff to return to the office, this does not mean they will stop offering work from home to attract the most sought-after talent,” states Indeed.
