PRO-RH - Cabinet de Recrutement

What PRO-RH - Cabinet de Recrutement does

PRO-RH – Cabinet de Recrutement is a French regional recruitment consultancy founded by Mélanie Charon and operated as an entreprise individuelle (sole proprietorship) from Louviers in Normandy. The firm provides permanent (CDI) and fixed-term (CDD) placement services across all job functions and industries, with a stated sales-led go-to-market targeting companies in the Normandy and Ile de France regions. Its client portfolio, drawn from public case material, spans temporary staffing (SOS Intérim), agricultural equipment, industrial automation, food-service equipment, luxury/beauty point-of-sale manufacturing, aerospace/defence precision components, and vocational training — illustrating a horizontal, sector-agnostic positioning.

The core service offering is a full-cycle recruitment process comprising need identification, candidate sourcing, CV pre-selection, telephone qualification, in-depth interviews, integration follow-up, and candidate presentation reports, with optional partial-service engagements. Adjacent product lines include "Tests & Evaluations" (personality, psychotechnical, and aptitude assessments used for both external hiring and internal mobility), an annual/professional interview management service (diagnostics, participatory tools, manager training), onboarding support, and a self-operated job board (Nos Offres d'Emploi). No proprietary technology platform, AI capabilities, or SaaS product is disclosed; the model is labour-based professional services augmented by third-party testing tools.

Commercially, PRO-RH generates revenue through placement fees on recruitment mandates, with pricing described as quote-based and not publicly disclosed. Distribution is direct (phone, email, website, LinkedIn, Facebook) with no intermediaries. The firm's strategic partnerships are limited to a channel relationship with staffing firm SOS Intérim (since 1967) for branch-level recruitment and an operational relationship with web agency Ocean Communication for digital infrastructure. At 13 employees with no external funding and no parent company, the firm operates as an independent micro-cabinet whose growth is constrained by consultant capacity rather than technology leverage.
