Youssef EL ABDI
Junior Purchaser, BNP Paribas Personal Finance
As a logical step on from my previous studies, I took the Purchasing & Supply Chain specialization with a view to broadening my knowledge of corporate strategy.
Over the course of my work-study program, I was able to develop my professional skills in the two main areas of my training. I spent my first year working as a coordinator at Sanofi, and my second year as a junior purchaser at BNP Paribas Personal Finance. At Paris School of Business I discovered all the demands an institution delivering such a comprehensive body of knowledge makes of its students. Professionally speaking, I took advantage of the invaluable advice given to me by my teachers in order to successfully carry out my in-company missions.
