By means of.

Through the intermediary of, via.

🌍

문화적 배경

In French corporate culture, 'le piston' (nepotism/networking) is a reality. Using 'par le biais de' allows one to acknowledge a connection elegantly without sounding like they are bragging about their 'piston'. The French administration is famous for its complexity. 'Par le biais de' is the standard language for navigating 'les démarches administratives'. While used in Quebec, speakers there might also use 'via' or 'à travers' more frequently due to the proximity of English, but 'par le biais de' remains the gold standard for formal writing. French remains a key language of diplomacy. This phrase is essential in treaties and official statements to define how aid or information is funneled.

The 'Cover Letter' Secret

Always use this phrase in your French cover letters to explain how you found the job. It immediately signals a high level of education.

⚠️

Avoid 'Que'

Never say 'par le biais que'. If you need a verb, change the sentence to 'par le biais du fait que' (though this is clunky) or just use a noun.
