Testimony
Maxime GUILLEMARD
Work-study student and wealth management advisor, Société Générale
I wanted to join Paris School of Business as I knew that the trade sector was of interest to me, but without yet knowing exactly what direction I would take or what I wanted to do.
The various conferences, associations and contacts established with other students and alumni guided me and revealed which path to choose. In addition, the exposure the school provides to the international scene was among the reasons behind my decision, an exposure that has served me very well since.
