Aeronautics recruited 10,000 people in 2011 - June 23, 2011

Civil orders on the rise in air traffic growth, an area facing an aging population pyramid … All these factors explain the dynamics of employment in the aviation and aerospace.

The Gifas announced for 2011 almost 10,000 recruits. It's more than in 2010. As for the annual "Requirements labor" performed by employment center, it confirms that the aircraft remains the largest source of employment in the Midi-Pyrenees, with 1500 jobs expected at Airbus, near of 2000 jobs in the aerospace subcontracting and 39% of hiring an interim basis.

"Aviation is a particular market. Cycles tend to sync their economic crises. The lifetime of an aircraft is 50 years, that of a satellite, DE20 years.It's very different from the automotive sector, with shorter development time, is very dependent on market conditions, "said Benedict Binachon, general manager of the firm Futurestep. This subsidiary of American Korn / Ferry International conducted a quarter of its turnover (16 million) in the industrial sector. "It's hard, inside, measure from the aircraft. Between large contractors and their subcontractors, are diffuse recruitment. "He believes however that the need for France in the thousands. "Companies need to increase the sail quickly.They must renew generations and have no room for error. "

Requirements Engineering

What about the profiles sought? "The industry was reorganized and includes many approaches and methods from other industries, in a logic of optimizing costs, reducing product development time and production time. It takes a lot for example in the automotive sector, which has developed a long time already highly efficient industrial logic, "said Celine Hulot, a consultant at Futurestep. In this context, the sector is recruiting heavily on industrial functions in production methods, supply chain, purchasing, and research profiles experienced (at least five years experience) from other technical environments, such as automobiles.As for the graduates, places are open in the engineering, development and R & D.

"Our industry creates jobs, but it is difficult to recruit engineers, says Louis Le Portz, Commissioner of the Paris Air Show. The image machine tool, feet in oil, is still very present. The brightest prefer to work in finance. "Where wages are more attractive … The differences are not hiring, but in career progression. At 30, an engineer working in the quantitative trading affects an average of 200 K €, the equivalent of the salary of a senior in the space …

Pool of graduates

However, the sector remains very attractive. And those who choose it often do so out of passion for the product. The success of "Operation Fly your ideas" launched by Airbus in 2008 is proof.Open to students worldwide, this competition invites innovation, offering to imagine a greener future for the aircraft. The second edition was attended by 2600 students from 75 countries. The winning team, which will be designated at the Paris Air Show, will pocket 30,000 euros. If the operation is not a direct recruitment tool, it provides access to a pool of talent. It also enhances the employer brand. On its recruitments this year, Airbus expects 30% of graduates and 25% women. The feminization of the workforce is another major issue in the sector.

And two. Having poached in March, Laurent Joffrin of the co-chairmanship of Liberation to entrust the reins of Le Nouvel Observateur and the chief editor of news magazine, Perdriel Claude, the owner of the newspaper group, has hired Wednesday Nathalie Collin Co-Chair of the daily street ranger. Aged 46 years, the former boss of EMI France, who had joined Liberation in 2009, will assume his new duties in early August. Alongside Laurent Joffrin as co-chair of the board of the Nouvel Observateur, it will specifically support "strategy, development, partnerships and management." It will also be responsible for DG Debt Management Group, which also publishes Challenges and Sciences et Avenir. These two transfers decapitate the leadership of Liberation, in a situation remains fragile – the newspaper that has reached 200,000 euros profit in 2010.After considering an exchange of equity and industrial and commercial synergies with Le Nouvel Observateur, the newspaper is engaged since March in a plan to recapitalize nine million euros made by the group Colbert Land, of which 6 have already been paid. Edouard de Rothschild, chairman of the supervisory board and shareholder at 26% Payment at par with Colbert Land, must quickly find a successor to Nathalie Collin. In the entourage of the French businessman, is no secret that the revival of Libération is far from over. "There are still chapels, personal conflicts, with a very old organization.

Edouard de Rothschild.The torque-Laurent Joffrin-Nathalie Collin has improved the content and quality of Liberation, but as a fellow shareholder and chairman of the supervisory board of the newspaper, I am a reproach to have left to buy social peace without reforming the business . This is an opportunity for liberation can modernize and reform the house, whether its organization, operation, management.

A few months ago, you were considering a merger with Le Nouvel Observateur '…

As a shareholder, I'm not political and I observe from a distance, but I find that a squabble between Le Nouvel Observateur and Liberation is sterile, unproductive, when primaries will play within the Socialist Party and where major substantive discussions will be held on the left.

Your strategy for "Liberation" Will it change?

Le Nouvel Observateur is an aging institution.Today, a generation of readers is renewed. It is within this context that Nicolas Demorand joined Liberation as "publisher". A new "publisher" should be appointed shortly. We have some interesting candidates to succeed Nathan Collin. We will choose three to Bruno Ledoux, group Colbert Land, the daughter of Italian shareholder Carlo Caracciolo, and myself.

Oil prices fall below $ 100 - May 7, 2011

Doubts seize the oil markets this weekend. On the New York Mercantile Exchange (Nymex), the price of a barrel of light sweet crude for June delivery broke down the psychological barrier of $ 100 on Thursday. He confirmed his decline at the close on Friday. After a session of ups and downs, it closed at 97.18 dollars.

On the whole week, the barrel has lost 14.7%. This is the largest decline in weekly percentage terms since the week 19 December 2008 when prices fell by 26.8%.Prices had not changed at these levels since March 16, when the uprisings in the Arab world and worry about the nuclear crisis in Japan had made prices soar.

The downward trend is the same on the Intercontinental Exchange in London where a barrel of Brent North Sea crude for June delivery traded at 108.42 dollars, down 2.38 dollars compared to Thursday. These days, the decline was due to analysts' pessimism about the future numbers of jobs overseas.

Surprise contradictory indicators, the U.S. economy created more jobs than expected in April (244,000). Nevertheless, a barrel continued to decline in early trading, before settling at around 99.45 dollars in mid jouréne in New York.Job creation does not erase the bad macroeconomic indicators released in recent days, suggesting that the recovery remains fragile.

On Thursday, investors are learning that new jobless claims in the United States increased sharply during the last week of April, 474,000 applications for allocations, while economists were expecting a decline. The day before, the numbers of firm ADP showed that job creation in the private sector in the United States slowed in April, well below forecasts of economists.

These announcements point to a decline in oil demand in a context of high oil prices. In addition, a continued rise in U.S. oil inventories, which should have been starting to fall a few months of the summer of large displacements.

In this context, the sharp rise in the dollar makes things worse.Thursday disappointed by the decision of the ECB not to raise interest rates next month, traders got rid of their euros. Result: the single currency, which was worth $ 1.49 yesterday, falling almost 2% to 1.4547 dollar. A situation which penalizes the purchase of dollar-denominated crude and thus rendered less attractive.

Boeing robs the Airbus tanker contract - February 25, 2011

From our Washington correspondent

The Pentagon chose Boeing and EADS not to deliver 179 aircraft-refueling tankers. The European group had, however, in 2008, won the giant contract estimated at $ 35 billion. But Boeing was able to invalidate the win. In a politically charged climate, Boeing had argued errors committed by experts from the U.S. Air Force in the evaluation of their offer. Disappointed, EADS has ten days to enter to turn the U.S. Court of Auditors, which would be a hundred days to decide.

EADS offered to assemble a plant in Alabama, specially built for this purpose, a military version derived from the Airbus A 330.

Boeing wants his side to replace its old KC-135, in operation since 1950, for derivatives of the Boeing aircraft B-767 products in its factories near Seattle.The selection of Boeing will cause a stir in Congress, especially among Republicans from Alabama. Conversely, deputies and senators, anxious to defend Boeing and employment in the United States are met. The contract is more sensitive than the needs of the Air Force is pressing and unlikely to be affected by cuts in appropriations that hit other weapons programs, including those who live Boeing.

Operating Costs

The formula used by the Pentagon to compare the operating costs of both units played a crucial role in the decision. Indeed, the tanker offered by EADS is larger than the unit proposed by Boeing.To compare the two options, experts from the Defense Department have established a mathematical formula that adjusts costs to reflect this difference.

The model incorporates various scenarios of conflicts and situations of refueling more or less far from U.S. bases. It also takes into account the likely increases in fuel during the operating period is 40 years. However, Boeing had long argued that the formula favored EADS. It does not reflect the actual costs of operating the Boeing tanker supposed to be lower.

The manufacturer also claims that EADS is a company illegally subsidized by European states. Moreover, Boeing submitted to the Congress that the U.S. should not rely on a foreign company for a contract as important to national security.

The Pentagon had clearly rejected these objections.On the one hand because the dispute between Boeing and Airbus to the World Trade Organization (WTO) is not resolved, Boeing accused of being eligible for public subsidies. He also believed that competition between the two manufacturers was the ideal way to get the best tanker at the best price. Only against Boeing since Northrop Grumman has renounced his alliance with EADS on this project, the EU has even seen the Pentagon grant it the status of "prime contractor", reserved for the largest U.S. companies weapon. Still, a second phase is planned. The work carried out by EADS is not lost and he could catch up on this occasion

The legacy weighs heavily in the composition of wealth - January 20, 2011

We understand that the idea of taxing the sale of a principal residence raises outcry in France. For heritage of French people – estimated at 10,000 billion – is 60% real estate, according to a Treasury study presented Tuesday night to members. And the main home alone represents 80% of household real estate holdings. This is the very strong house price growth (111% in 10 years) who explains that the French have seen their total assets more than doubled in ten years.

The other investment of the French flagship, is life insurance. She picks up alone 40% of household financial assets. 1.36 trillion euros are stored!

More households heritage, the more they diversify. Typically, the French bit off putting their savings on tax-free accounts.The middle classes are investing in their primary residence and life insurance. As for better-off households, they are going more toward stocks and bonds, but without abandoning the life insurance and investing in real estate. Thus 80% of shares and bonds are held by the 10% richest households payday loans. Very affluent homes, in addition, holding two-thirds of life insurance and real estate off primary residence. This diversification pays off because equities have a higher yield. Result, 10% of households living in better capture 60% of income from assets when they have "only" 30% of total wealth.

We see the holding of assets remains highly unequal. And income does not explain everything. "Two thirds of households in the last installment of income tax do not pay ISF" says one at Bercy.Further evidence of this phenomenon, the 10% richest in terms of revenue capture 30% of total wealth, while the 10% richest in terms of assets capture 50% of total wealth. In fact, nearly one third of the estate of a typical household 50 years it has been transmitted by inheritance and gift taxes.
