Candidate Testimonials

Nathan (ex Royal Air Force (RAF) Avionics Technician)

Whilst scrolling through the latest job vacancies on LinkedIn, I found a Field Service Engineer position that caught my eye. I wasn’t too sure if Demob Job could help me, as I left the Armed Forces nine years ago. I initially called up Demob Job ex-military recruitment agency to request further details and I spoke to Joanne Foster. Joanne was fantastic at explaining the vacancy further and the recruitment process. The whole process from start to finish was great, with Joanne supporting me at every stage. I cannot thank Joanne enough for her help and guidance. Thoroughly recommend!  Nathan is now employed as a Field Service Engineer in the London area.

Owen (ex Royal Navy electrically biased Weapons Engineer)

A great process. From the first call I received where the opportunity was introduced to the call on the Friday before I started the job Joanne was helpful, professional, and always at the end of the phone if I had any inquiries. Many thanks to Joanne Foster and Demob Job for the opportunity, I am enjoying my new employment.  Owen is now a Service Engineer in Gloucester.

Michelle (ex-Royal Navy Marine Engineer)

I cannot recommend Demob Job enough.  Within 4 hours of applying for a position, Kim had called me to introduce herself and the agency, contacted the employer, secured me an interview and sent me a comprehensive email detailing who, what, where, why and when!  She kept in touch throughout the whole process and I'm pleased to say I attended the interview and was successful. I have dealt with many agencies including some of the 'big' names and none came close to the professionalism and thorough work of Kim at Demob Job. Thank you. Technical Sales Engineer, Cheshire

Julian (ex British Army – Household Cavalry Regiment)

After applying for a position through the Demob Job website I was contacted by Emma who was very helpful in helping me adjust my CV to reflect the vacancy.  Emma organised everything, including the interview which I attended and was offered the job.  I would like to personally thank the team at Demob Job and particularly Emma for her friendly professionalism and assistance.  Now an Estates Manager in West London

Aaron (ex British Army Electronics Technician)

Joanne was there for me during the most difficult and concerning time of my career, the period in which I was leaving the military after 10 years not having any civilian contacts or experience. She made me feel calm and confident in securing a new career path even during the pandemic. I would highly recommend any ex-military or jobseeker to have Joanne caring for their needs. She was professional and kind during the whole process and considered all my needs throughout. Amazing support. Aaron is now an Engineering Technician in Lancashire.

Nathan (ex-Royal Navy Marine Engineer)

“After having served 8 years in the Royal Navy as a Marine Engineer and on starting my transition to Civvy Street I was contacted by Demob Job to help me find my new career. Kelly Chandler was my point of contact throughout, and she was brilliant from start to finish. She noted all my previous skills and experience and used them to match me against jobs that were in my preferred field. She filtered jobs for me that were within my preferred commutable area, working routines, and the salary range I was looking for. I was paired with a job that suited everything that I was looking for. Kelly kept me well-informed throughout the selection and interview process. She even phoned me the Friday before I was due to start work to wish me good luck. I would not hesitate to recommend Demob Job to any member of the Armed Forces looking to take their next career step”.  Nathan is now employed as an Electrical Maintenance Engineer in Manchester.

Richard (ex British Army – Royal Signals Electrician)

I was contacted by Joanne Foster from Demob Job recruitment agency regarding an exciting opportunity within a national engineering company.  Throughout the recruitment process I was kept fully informed at every stage of the selection process, the communication was excellent and at no stage was I left not knowing exactly what was expected from me.  I would like to thank Joanne for all the hard work she has done over the last four months.  Richard is now employed as a Service Engineer in Kent.
