Having a passion for cinema, I have benn used to go to the FNAC as a client for many years. I had the chance to discover this store from  inside  last year because I worked there as a trainee in third class.
This training was very successfull and it's why I asked to renew the experience this year.


 In fact, I had the opportunity to hold a real job in a society where I was recognized with people trusting me.
. I have filled the job as an FNAC's employee  and I was able to appreciate the contact both with customers and my colleagues.
 I was also been pleasantly surprised by the variety of tasks.


 Here are some key figures and events that characterize the FNAC:


BRIEF HISTORY


FNAC was founded in 1954 by André Essel and Max THERET, two former Trotskyite militant Marxist tendencies.
 It was at that time a place where executives came to buy their equipment and photographic film.
Gradually the rays are expanded with the appearance of the photo, radios and tape recorders, records, books and CDs in 1974.




The regional presence of the FNAC began in 1972 with the opening of the store in Lyon.
In 1980, FNAC is traded.
In 1994 it was sold to François Pinault. Today it is still part of French group PPR.
