What Emploi.com does

Emploi.com, operating under the brand Figaro Emploi, is the employment portal of Groupe Figaro (Le Figaro Group), one of France's largest media conglomerates. The platform is a web-based, two-sided French employment marketplace serving active and passive job seekers on the consumer side and a reported base of 15,000+ recruiters and employers on the supply side. At the time of source capture, the platform carried 448,749 active job listings searchable by city, profession, and sector.

The product stack comprises a core job search engine; a free CV Builder with profession-specific templates (commercial, accounting, IT, nursing, secretarial, and others) that produces downloadable resumes in under five minutes; a recruiter-exclusive CVthèque (resume database) used by roughly one-third of recruiters before posting a job offer; salary benchmarking guides by profession; a recruiter access portal (Accès Recruteur) at recruteur.lefigaro.fr; an enterprise directory with employer testimonials; and an editorial content layer covering career advice, workplace law, retirement, and entrepreneurship. Distribution is structurally tied to the Le Figaro media ecosystem, including lefigaro.fr, video channels such as Talk Décideurs, themed sections like Décideurs and Entrepreneurs, and email newsletters.

The business model is a freemium/subscription hybrid. Job seekers access all core services free of charge, including CV creation, job alerts, CV deposit, and career content. Revenue is generated on the employer side through paid recruitment solutions, primarily job postings and CVthèque access via the Accès Recruteur portal, with pricing tiers not publicly disclosed. The platform operates exclusively within France and has no disclosed API, SDK, mobile app, or external integrations; it absorbed former competitor Keljob's user base via an account transfer partnership.

Direct peers

• Welcome to the Jungle: French-origin employer branding and job platform with strong content integration; directly competes in the same French market with a more modern, employer-brand-led approach that overlaps with Figaro Emploi's content-plus-jobs positioning.
• Cadremploi: French job board focused on managerial and executive roles; comparable to Figaro Emploi's higher-skilled listing segments and recruiter subscription offering within the same domestic market.
• HelloWork: French generalist job board network (formed from RegionsJob and others) targeting similar SMB and enterprise recruiters in France; closest like-for-like competitor on listings volume and recruiter subscription model.

Broad incumbents

• Glassdoor: Job listings platform with integrated company reviews and salary data; overlaps directly with Figaro Emploi's employer profiles, salary guides, and listings business, especially for research-driven job seekers.
• StepStone: European-wide job board operating across multiple countries with recruiter subscription products; comparable in business model and recruiter tools, with broader geographic reach than Figaro Emploi's France-only focus.
• Monster: Established global job board with listings-based recruitment model; comparable in core offering (job search, recruiter posting, resume database) though with a more transactional and less content-led positioning.
• Indeed: Global job search aggregator that operates the dominant listings-based employment marketplace; comparable to Figaro Emploi's core job search and recruiter posting business, though at much larger scale and without a tightly integrated media brand.
• LinkedIn: Professional network with integrated jobs and recruiter tools (LinkedIn Recruiter); directly competes with Figaro Emploi for recruiter spend and candidate attention, especially for white-collar roles in France.

Regional players

• APEC: France's official agency for executive and managerial employment placement; comparable to the Cadre/managerial portion of Figaro Emploi's listings and recruiter services in the same French geography.

Emerging players

• Jobteaser: French-founded graduate and early-career recruitment platform with employer branding; overlaps with Figaro Emploi's younger job seeker and CV-building segments in the French market.
