Partner Agencies: Internships in France

If you send students abroad, Talents Place can be your host partner in France for paid culinary and hospitality internships of 3 to 6 months. We work with study abroad providers, internship agencies and education consultants in the United States and Canada.

What you can offer your students

• Paid internships. French law requires a gratification for internships over 2 months: approx. €4.50/hour in 2026.
• Kitchens and hotels across France. Restaurants, brasseries, pastry shops and hotels, from bistro to fine dining.
• 12 to 26 weeks. Flexible durations to match your programs.
• Meals and accommodation. Often provided by the host company or arranged nearby.
• Help with visa documents. We help students prepare the documents for their visa application.

How we work with agencies

You keep the relationship with your students. We look for the host company in France, organize the interviews and prepare the internship agreement with the host. Roles, fees and partner terms are agreed in writing before your first student. Our public fees are on the fee page.

Why a partner in France

• A network of French restaurants and hotels that host international interns
• A team with an office in the United States, easy to reach for your staff
• Culinary and hospitality only: we know the trade and what host chefs expect

Placement depends on each student's profile, interview and visa approval.
