Candidate Testimonials
Rob (ex Royal Electrical and Mechanical Engineers (REME))
Joanne Foster and the Demob Job team were instrumental in supporting myself and my application in finding a new and fulfilling role, in an industry where my skillset fits and has the opportunity to develop further. Joanne fully supported me from the initial telephone conversation and numerous interviews to my first week in role assuring that the role was a fit for me as well as the company. Many recruiters disappear once the Job offer has been made, not Demob Job. The team continues to offer advice and support to ex-service individuals via their website and social media for no-return, this is a company with honest intentions to support ex-forces. I cannot recommend Demob Job highly enough. Rob is now employed as a Systems Auditor in Wiltshire.

From Army Infantry to Stores Assistant: I cannot recommend Demob Job enough
“Right from the beginning Demob Job stood out, this started from reading the online job advert and me contacting them. Everything about the vacancy was just superb telling you everything you needed to know. Within an hour of applying Kelly Chandler from Demob Job was in touch. Kelly puts you at ease and asks all the relevant questions for the employer and also answers all your questions making sure everything is ok. All through the recruitment process Kelly was fantastic, informing and supporting me at every step. On the morning of the interview Kelly called me to make sure I was ok allowing me to ask any last-minute questions. After the interview yet again Kelly was superb. Demob and Kelly were just superb from start to finish making the whole experience pleasant during what is normally a nervous and stressful time. Well done Demob Job, I can't recommend you enough, professional and outstanding all the way!” – Former British Army Infantry, now a Stores Assistant.

Daniel (ex Royal Navy – Avionics/Electrical Engineering Supervisor)
After 6 years in the Royal Navy I wanted more stability for my home life. Joanne has been a key part of securing my next career and has been very proactive during every stage of job searching. She found my profile online and very quickly lined up several interviews that ticked my boxes. Even though I was searching for work 200 miles away from where I was based, Joanne managed to set up interviews that fitted in with my schedule. I cannot thank her and Demob Job enough for their professionalism and constant communication during my career change. 10/10! Now an Installation and Maintenance Technician in Leicestershire
