Candidate Testimonials
Chris (ex Royal Electrical and Mechanical Engineers)
Emma contacted me after I applied for a Field Service Engineer position. Within days Emma came back to me, spoke to me about the vacancy and then helped me tweak my CV specifically for the role. Emma helped me with every step of the process happy to use several methods of contact as I was difficult to reach due to my work commitments. She was patient and understanding. Thanks to Emma, within 5 weeks I had started a new job. In addition, my new boss has since alluded that this was his first-time using Demob Job and he was so pleased how it had worked out. Both my new boss and I would highly recommend Demob Job to anybody who is looking for a new career after their military career. Double thumbs-up for Demob Job! Now a Field Service Engineer in West Yorkshire

“Since day one both Joanne and Demob Job have been fantastic. From the off, I was instantly put at ease and the worry and anxiety of leaving the armed forces and finding employment, quickly evaporated. Joanne was fantastic in her role. Clearly working hard and diligently to find me the best possible job to fit my criteria. She was a fantastic listener, great motivator and was great at reassuring me following challenging interviews and tests. Overall, I cannot recommend Demob Job enough. Their ability to find work for service leavers is brilliant and thanks to them I feel optimistic and excited for my future on civvy street. Thank you for everything Joanne”.

Mike (ex Royal Air Force electrically biased Avionics Engineer)
Joanne at Demob Job is unlike any other recruiter I have been in contact with as I am sure all the recruiters with Demob Job are. Joanne was friendly, professional, and genuinely interested in putting the correct person in the correct role. Many recruiters merely contact you to fill their numbers, filling you with false hope and never returning the many phone calls you make to them. From the initial phone call I received from Joanne to the last I felt Demob and Joanne wanted to get the best possible outcome for me and not only for them or the company. I will be recommending Demob job and Joanne to all service leavers I know as I wish someone had recommended them to me months ago. Thank you Joanne and Demob Job. Mike is now a Field Electrical Engineer in Tyne & Wear.
Arran (ex REME Electronics Technician)
I was contacted by Emma at Demob Job a couple of months prior to leaving the military. Within 24 hours from first talking, Emma had already arranged two interviews with potential employers within walking distance of my house. One of these interviews proved successful and I was subsequently offered the job in which I am now very happy. Emma went the extra mile to ensure my transition into civilian life was easy and hassle-free, it felt like a very personal service and she has followed up with me a couple of times now, wishing me well and ensuring everything is going ok. All in all, Demob Job and Emma will do what it takes to ensure you find the right job. Field Service Engineer, 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.
