Candidate Testimonials
From REME Vehicle Mechanic to Field Installation Technician: A Standout Recruitment Experience
“I applied for a job via the CTP portal, the response from the Demob Job was very quick and the first call was very informative regarding the role. Joanne was very accommodating with setting up interviews and has kept me updated during the whole process. Even a quick phone call to say they are currently waiting to hear back from the employer was always appreciated. I can honestly say this is the best experience I have ever had with a recruiter, I have already recommended them to other service leavers and will continue to do so in the future.” James was a Level 3 Vehicle Mechanic in the Royal Electrical and Mechanical Engineers and is now employed as a Field Installation Technician in Leicestershire.

Kevin (completed a 25-year career in the Royal Artillery)
Emma, thank you for contacting me regarding a new job opportunity. Your help, support, and guidance throughout the whole process were second to none. You are an asset to Demob Job, and I will be recommending you and your team to friends leaving the Armed Forces. Once again, a big thank you, and I wish you and the Demob Job team every success. Kevin is now employed as a Warehouse Team Leader 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
Paul (Ex Royal Navy Marine Engineer)
“Leaving the Armed Forces is a huge step for any service person looking to transition into civilian life, personally for me it was extra daunting as I joined the Royal Navy straight from school and stayed to complete a 24-year career. Job hunting proved difficult with many employers not taking the time to reply to my applications. I then applied for a position I found on the CTP website, immediately Joanne Foster was in touch to explain the role and requirements in more depth, within minutes I had experienced the personal and professional service Demob Job offer. Joanne helped me every step of the way offering advice, feedback, and an understanding I do not think would be found at any other recruitment company. I would urge anyone leaving the Armed Forces to use the experience and professionalism Demob Job have at their disposal. Thanks to Joanne I have secured a job with a prestigious North East company.” Paul is now employed as a Senior Marine Engineering Manager in Tyne and Wear.
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.
REME Vehicle Technician secure new career as Engineering Surveyor
"I first contacted Demob Job after seeing their Instagram page and was immediately impressed with their professionalism and positive attitude towards finding me employment. It was clear from the outset that they had a lot of connections in the Engineering industry and were keen to get to know me. They reassured me about the process which in turn took a lot of pressure off me while I was conducting my resettlement phase. Having then spoken with Kelly Chandler, she quickly gained an in-depth understanding of what skills and experience I had and began to match me with potential employers the next day. When a job was identified as a good fit for me, Kelly explained the job specifications to me clearly to make sure I understood everything. Exactly one week after first contacting Demob Job, I had an interview, and a job offer which I accepted. Kelly and the team were fantastic, and I couldn’t recommend them enough. I am now an Engineering Surveyor with a great company in South Yorkshire”.
