Candidate Testimonials
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.
Dave (Ex Royal Engineers)
“I saw a post on LinkedIn about Demob Job and then signed up to their site. I continued to monitor for updates, looking for interesting engineering roles in my area. Once a role grabbed my attention I applied through their site and not long after received a call from Adrian Cheesman. He talked through my experience, expectations, the employer and the realities of the role. I have since received an offer of employment and would like to express my sincere thanks to Adrian and Joanne Foster at Demob for their help, support and guidance throughout this process. I would highly recommend Demob Job to anyone leaving or thinking of leaving the military with an Engineering/Technical background as a route to employment!”. Dave is now employed as a Field Service Engineer in West Yorkshire.
Rhys (ex-Royal Navy Weapons Engineer)
“These guys are a cut above the rest when compared to other recruiters - complete understanding throughout the process which isn’t reciprocal with all other recruiters. I received more support than was needed, to which I’m so grateful and ecstatic with the end result. Demob Job are a great team to work with and I would recommend to any service leaver in transition!”. Rhys is now employed as a Field Service Engineer in the Bristol area.
Matthew (ex REME Avionics Technician)
I applied for a Field Service Technician Role through Demob and was promptly contacted by Joanne who after ascertaining my suitability for the role arranged for me to attend an interview. I was successful and offered the job the same day which I accepted. Throughout the entire process, Joanne was always on hand to help me prepare for the interview, keeping me informed and ensuring everything ran smoothly up to my first day of work. Overall all I could not recommend Demobjob enough. Field Service Technician, Belfast
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
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.
Daniel (ex-Royal Navy Marine Engineer)
After being tagged in the job advertisement by a colleague, Emma was very quick to get in touch with me and have a thorough conversation about my background, skills and whether or not I was an appropriate candidate for the job. Emma kept me up to date throughout the process with friendly and informative conversations including preparations for the interview and eventually explaining that my application was successful. In a time that could become very stressful as my TX date was looming, Emma and the whole Demob Job team remained very calm and helpful. I couldn't recommend them enough, thanks for all the help. Project Engineer (Mechanical), Northumberland
