Candidate Testimonials

REME Aircraft Technician secures new career as a Field Service Engineer: A Personalised Journey with Demob Job

"Dealing with Joanne Foster was a very pleasant and personal experience from start to finish.  She kept in touch with me throughout the process explaining each step as I progressed.  She was always happy to help out in any way whenever an issue would arise on my behalf. Thank you Joanne!"   – Former REME Aircraft Technician, now a Field Service Engineer in West Yorkshire.

Kieran (ex Royal Navy Aircraft Engineering Technician)

Demob Job were a great help during my final months in the Royal Navy, helping me to make the transition into civilian employment seamless. Emma Saxton went above and beyond helping me get prepared and ready for interviews, giving me advise and tips specific to the company which I was interested in joining. Even after securing employment Emma was very helpful by making sure everything was running smoothly right up to the day I started and beyond. I would recommend Demob Job to anyone leaving the Armed Forces.  Kieran is now employed as a Field Service Engineer in West Yorkshire.

John (Previously served in the Royal Navy as an Engineer)

“Joanne was very helpful in finding me employment on upon transitioning from a 15-year career in the Royal Navy.  Although at the time there were limited employers advertising roles that matched my skillset, Joanne managed to find hidden roles with local companies with whom she and Demob Job have close relationships with.  Her hard work, perseverance and contacts within industry managed to secure me my ideal role.  I'd also like to add that her support and mentoring during the process, helped enable my success in securing employment, during what can be a stressful process. I would definitely recommend Joanne and Demob Job to any service leaver”.  John is now employed as a Project Engineer in the North East.

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

William (ex Royal Navy Marine Engineer)

Within 5 days of contacting me, Joanne had secured me an interview in my preferred field, which subsequently led to me gaining my first job outside of the Royal Navy.  Joanne could not have been more helpful throughout the whole process, keeping in regular contact the whole time and always being on hand to answer any questions that I had.  I would not hesitate to recommend Joanne to any service leaver in the future.  William is now employed as an Operations Engineer in Somerset.

Alex (ex Royal Navy – Leading Air Engineering Technician)

Emma Saxton was great in finding me work after I had put my notice in with the Royal Navy.  After an uncertain time, I was beginning to worry about finding civilian employment, but this changed when I contacted Demob Job.  After speaking with Emma, I felt more confident and positive about my job search.  Emma found me a job with a leading multinational industrial engineering company with terms and conditions which far surpassed any expectation I had with leaving the Armed Forces, I was thrilled.  I would encourage anybody leaving their military career to contact Demob Job.  Alex is now a Field Service Engineer in Cumbria.
