Working as a florist in France
In France, search for fleuriste, fleuriste décorateur or vendeur en fleurs. The profession is not regulated for employees, but French employers look for the CAP fleuriste (the standard entry diploma), then the BP fleuriste or the BTM, which prepare you to run a shop. Foreign diplomas are assessed case by case, and a strong portfolio and a trial day weigh heavily. To open your own shop, you register with the Chambre de métiers et de l'artisanat. Expect early starts, Saturday and Sunday morning work, and intense periods around Valentine's Day, Mother's Day, the 1 May lily of the valley tradition and All Saints' Day in November. Conversational French is essential, since most of the job is advising customers.
