I’ve been concerned about environmental issues for a long time. In high school, I was already involved in several associations within my community and at school. Being from the Ardèche region, protecting nature and its fragile balance is important to me. That’s why I came to ESDES – to develop these values and this sense of involvement.

At Andros Asia we are looking for the leaders and managers of tomorrow. We are building business and teams are very young but it’s not an issue because we chose good profiles, especially with an experience of studies overseas. It usually makes the difference.

That’s why we decided to send some students we have selected into the Bachelor and Master Program of ESDES, in partnership with the University of Economics and Law in HCMC.

The program provide necessary skills and knowledge for sure but the global context and multicultural environment are the keys!

We are looking for people who can transform the company and able to bring value, creating new jobs and fulfill new scopes of work.
