Synopsis
Pôle Emploi, ne quittez pas! is the story of a team of 40 civil servants facing 4,000 job seekers at a job center in the Parisian suburbs. Samia, Corinne, Thierry, and Zuleika must support and monitor, bring in the numbers, obey policy guidelines and communication injunctions, and find job offers where none are to be found. Will their strong sense of humour save them from the Kafkaian world they work in?
