Servus from China's largest city

As a fashion management student, Christina Exner did not choose a typical fashion capital like Paris or London for her semester abroad, but Shanghai. "I was particularly attracted by the idea of experiencing a completely new culture and finding my place in a global metropolis alongside 25 million other people." One of the many highlights for Christina was a visit to Shanghai Fashion Week.

For us, contact with universities is a fundamental pillar of successful personnel marketing. Through direct contact with ISM students in the form of lectures, we were able to position L'Oréal as an attractive employer brand and find out what potential employees associate with us as an employer. This has improved the levers that determine the attractiveness of employers within the target groups of students and graduates.
