We’ll help you grow your skills through challenging, meaningful work so you can go further.

Nous tenons à répondre à vos besoins tout au long du processus de demande d’emploi, d’entrevue et d’embauche. Si vous avez besoin de mesures d’adaptation pour être parfaitement à l’aise, faites-le-nous savoir à l’étape de la demande d’emploi. L’utilisation de l’intelligence artificielle (IA) dans le domaine du recrutement en est à ses balbutiements. Nous savons que vous pourriez vous demander comment et pourquoi nous y avons recours. À certains stades de notre processus de recrutement, nous comptons sur l’IA pour améliorer votre expérience. Par exemple, pendant l’examen du curriculum vitæ ou l’élaboration d’une liste de recommandations personnalisées, un agent conversationnel pourrait vous demander des précisions ou fixer avec vous un rendez‑vous pour l’entrevue. L’IA nous aide à mieux lutter contre les préjugés, car l’évaluation des candidats se fait de façon juste et équitable, sans que les informations d’identification comme le nom ou le sexe soient connues. Elle nous permet également de mieux repérer les bons candidats pour un poste et d’évaluer le lien entre leurs compétences, leur expérience et leurs chances de réussir chez PwC Canada. Bien que l’IA facilite certaines étapes de notre processus de recrutement, les décisions finales d’embauche sont toujours prises par des personnes. Pour en savoir plus sur l’utilisation et la protection de vos données personnelles, consultez notre politique sur la protection des renseignements confidentiels (https://www.pwc.com/fr/privacy-policy.html).

Are you ready to make a difference? Want to unlock new value by applying your unique perspective and talents? You can grow exponentially at PwC. Here, you can uncover hidden talents, build lifelong relationships rooted in trust and empathy and turn challenges into opportunities for innovation. We’ll help you grow your skills through challenging, meaningful work so you can go further.
