neutral  Germaine: Traduction littérale. J'en doute énormément. Il me semble qu'il faut prendre "practice" dans le sens de "cabinet" = service, départemnet, unité, secteur, etc.

information technology practice
cabinet de recrutement informatique


Explanation:
they use this term like Law Practice, for consulting firms, it's mainly the sector in which they give consulting practices. To avoid confusion with the term pratiques = methods it is generally recommended to use a more generic term like secteur, créneau, marché, segment. in this HR case here you could say cabinet de recherches de cadres en informatique or cabinet de recrutement informatique

Example sentence(s):
  • xxx is the Leader of our UK Technology Consulting Practice.
  • Notre maîtrise des méthodologies de recrutement par annonce et notre savoir-faire en tant que cabinet de recrutement informatique à Paris

neutral  Germaine: "Cabinet" pourrait aller, sauf qu'on ne parle pas de "recrutement" informatique, mais de TI.// Read again: IT PRACTICE OF an executive search firm (not IT executive search practice)
