There is no conservative/liberals differenciation in France. All French senior politicians and civil servants have exactly the same life trajectory, are educated in the same school, ENA, and share the same values. There is a lot of opportunist movement from a party to another, showing that party ideology has zero weight.
PS: you may bring Nicolas Sarkozy as a counter-example. He, indeed, did not go to ENA because he failed to graduate from IEP Paris, which is a prerequisite.
