What Great Job does

Great Job is a B2B recruitment consultancy (cabinet de recrutement) headquartered in Talence, France, operating as a generalist, human-sized firm that delivers tailored end-to-end hiring campaigns to companies across all industry sectors. The firm describes itself as a multi-specialist team providing a single point of contact per client, with the ability to adapt its approach to client urgency, context, and hiring volume. Great Job claims 15 years of recruitment expertise (consistent with founding around 2005) and serves clients nationally across France from its Talence base.

The company's core service offering comprises five modular products: individual interviews (Entretien individuel), group interviews (Entretiens collectifs), national volume recruitment campaigns (Campagne nationale, starting at 20 positions), private recruitment fairs (Salon privé de recrutement), and custom media planning for employer branding (Plan média spécifique). No proprietary technology platform is described; service delivery is consultant-led and process-driven, with human-led assessments supplemented by optional reference checks, personality tests, and situational exercises. Marketing is conducted through the company's website (greatjob.fr) and a LinkedIn company page, with no app, no API, and no disclosed integrations.

Great Job generates revenue on a transaction-fee basis tied to successful placements. Pricing is flexible and negotiated per engagement, with options including success-based fees (with or without deposit), guarantee periods, flat-rate (forfait) fees, or a percentage of the candidate's annual gross salary. The firm employs approximately 6 people and operates as an independently owned private company with no disclosed investors, parent entity, partnerships, or external capital. The GTM motion is direct, consultative B2B sales to enterprise and mid-market hiring companies in France, with no resellers, marketplaces, or channel partners involved.
