"I would like to express my gratitude and thanks to Joanne Foster at Demob Job. She identified my transferable skills and found me an available position within a week. Excellent communication, checking in on my progress weekly and always available to answer questions. Extremely professional service.  I can’t recommend Demob Job highly enough for those leaving the military and transitioning to the civilian industry. Thank you again Joanne for making this process much easier".  Lee is now a Production Engineer in Devon.

Having gone through a long and difficult process Joanne was with me every step of the way and was excellent in guiding me through the many obstacles. Joanne showed excellent knowledge in the field I was seeking employment in and was crucial in my preparation for the interviews for the role. Joanne was very attentive and always on the other end of the phone to help when I had questions.  Could not recommend demob job and Joanne enough and if I ever look to seek different employment in the future, they will be my first contact.  Thomas is now a Field Service Engineer in Bristol.

I left the RAF and began the laborious and slightly soul destroying task of searching for a job appropriate to my skill set. I was in contact with an old colleague who linked me to the advertisement posted on Demob Job by Joanne. I carefully read the criteria requested and contacted Joanne who promptly arranged a chat with me via telephone the next day.  Joanne advised me of what the job entailed and after a brief informal Q&A, proposed to put me forward for the role of Field Service Engineer at a Marine company. I was thrilled to hear back that the company were interested in speaking to me via web interview initially and I was coached on some salient points to assist me with techniques and common questions. That interview was completed and Joanne kept in touch between myself and the company for feedback. I was then contacted back by Kim as Joanne had a holiday but I was made aware of this well in advance and Kim became my contact. I was delighted to hear that I was invited to the company HQ on Friday for a face to face interview after being shortlisted. I was delighted to be contacted by Kim to give me the good news that I had been offered the job. Joanne and Kim have been amazing throughout and I cannot thank them enough. I would describe Joanne and Kim as dynamic, highly professional, very supportive and confidence inspiring. I would recommend Demob Job to any service leaver be it imminent or out of the services for some time.

“I have done what I believe most service leavers do and saved my leave to have a few months off at the end of their career. I’d been at home making the most of the summer with my wife and kids but with the end of the summer holidays in sight I started to upload my cv to various websites. Almost immediately I was bombarded with calls from pushy recruiters telling me I’d be “perfect” for whatever job they had and would I like to apply but never hearing from them again, after a few weeks I was getting fed up with this. Then Kelly Chandler from Demob Job gave me a call. We had an actual conversation about what sort of employment and employer I was looking for, discussed the skills I had developed in the RAF and we ended the call with assurance she would find something suitable for me.  I got a call back from Kelly a few days later about a position available in a company that met my specification. My CV was sent off, I went for an interview and got the job! Kelly was there to support and guide me through the whole process and I’m looking forward to starting my job on Monday. I can’t recommend Demob Job highly enough!” Gary completed a full career in the Royal Air Force as an Aircraft Fitter and is now employed as a Maintenance Technician in Merseyside.

"Initially seeing a job advertised on Demob Job, I applied using the easy tool. Attach CV, write a short cover letter, and send.  My hiring person, Kelly Chandler, was in contact with me as soon as I thought possible. Explaining everything that is and is yet to come during application, interviews and just general questions. Very easy to get know and talk to, genuine person, very approachable and understanding. After the first interview, I was kept in touch with for any details in a very timely manner, just enough to know exactly where my application was at, at whatever stage. Nothing was any bother to ask and was quick to alleviate any concerns I had.  A great experience that has really helped with the daunting process of leaving the armed forces after over 22 years. Fantastic service, thank you Kelly".  Andrew served in the Royal Navy as a Weapons & Sensors Engineer and is now employed as a Service Engineer in the medical sector.

“Having uploaded my CV to various sites (LinkedIn, CV-Library etc) I started to receive calls from numerous recruitment agents. I quickly discovered many of these agents were merely utilising algorithms to match keywords with job specs. I found myself asking some if they’d actually read my CV as the roles being suggested where miles away from my skill set!   Joanne at Demob job couldn’t have been further away from this in her approach. Warm and friendly from the outset with a genuine interest in my experience and intended career direction. By the end of the first call, it was evident time had been invested to match me with the role on offer. Her continued support throughout the whole interview process was most welcome and soon alleviated any unease felt towards my first interview in over 30 years. I’m pleased to say that despite my initial nerves the outcome was successful. Contact details for Demob Job should be included in all career transition workshops, they provide a service that can only be described as superb.” Anthony is now employed as an Engineering Auditor.

"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.
