Bonjour. Je suis un développeur de logiciels d'Amérique, mais je n'ai jamais été diplômé de l'université. Ai-je besoin d'un diplôme universitaire pour être considéré pour un emploi? Merci d'avance.

Hi John!

I reply in English, so the other can also understand it and might get some relevant information. A university degree is highly preferred by our HR, but recently our job descriptions changed and "equivalent experience" is also accepted.

Speaking French is very useful in the daily life, but inside the company is not at all necessary.

If you browse a bit on our careers page you can see that we are hiring not just in France, but at many other locations as well, including Boston, Massachusetts and Salt Lake City, Utah too.
