“After the questions about the position, the missions and the remuneration, the candidates began to ask us about the working conditions. What about telecommuting, hybrid work, organization, etc.? In recent months, in interviews, their questions also relate to CSR (corporate social responsibility). Both on the values ​​and on the societal commitments of the company. But I haven’t heard any questions about energy sobriety yet. Nevertheless, I would find it logical for candidates to scratch these topics. Especially if employers publicly display commitments on these issues. If our client, therefore the company, tells us that he is sensitive to energy sobriety, we will ask him for conclusive indicators on the subject. Information that we can then communicate to the candidates. Asking this type of question can convince an employer. In any case, we will not ask about the energy sobriety of the candidate in his personal life, because it is prohibited. On the other hand, we could very well ask him how this subject was apprehended by his previous employer.

Coralie Rachet, General Manager France of the recruitment firm Robert Walters

“For 64% of our candidates, the subject of CSR is a determining factor in the choice of company. And more and more, they ask us about the ecological commitment of employers. Consultants from our engineering division, for example, have questions about low carbon strategyon the greening of manufacturing processes…. Some employers, in real estate in particular, are more attractive because they have this sensitivity. In the compensation packages, we have fewer and fewer company vehicles in favor of greener transport bonuses (cycling, carpooling, etc.). Employers prepare to talk about their carbon footprint but I have never seen candidates turn down a job because business trips were planned by plane! “.

Maxime Masraff, managing partner at LesTalents by Frenchfounders

“Let’s be frank: ecological questions still remain anecdotal in recruitment interviews. Candidates will have more or less interest in talking about it depending on the sensitivity or topicality of a future employer on the subject. Some industries have not yet taken the subject seriously. So be careful, at the risk of sounding like a troublemaker. A candidate can mention it but without judgement. Better to ask “what is your mobility policy for business trips?” » than to say « what do you think of the trend towards greening car fleets? “. Because if the company has not put anything in place, it could feel attacked”.

When are the “Chief sobriety officers”?

The “ambassadors of sobriety”, which the Prime Minister called for during the universities of the Medef, made a timid appearance in the announcements. But the majority of job titles include “energy efficiency” or “energy transition” rather than “sobriety” for the moment. Examples of vacancies:

  • sobriety and decarbonization manager

  • energy transition project manager

It should be noted that other positions in commercial/sales, communication, office management or accounting include energy sobriety in their attributions but the word does not appear in their title.
