[To analyse students' motivations in terms of criteria for choosing a first job].

Many health establishments have difficulty recruiting the nursing staff necessary for the proper functioning of their structures, particularly nurses and care assistants. In the Ile-de-France region, within the Groupement Hospitalier de Territoire 78 Sud, a survey was carried out among students at two nursing training institutes with the aim of gaining a better understanding of the criteria used to choose a first job at the end of training. This should provide guidance to human resources departments and care managers in their recruitment strategies.
