Candidate Testimonials

Lee (Ex Royal Air Force Aircraft Ground Engineer)

"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.

John (Previously served in the Royal Navy as an Engineer)

“Joanne was very helpful in finding me employment on upon transitioning from a 15-year career in the Royal Navy.  Although at the time there were limited employers advertising roles that matched my skillset, Joanne managed to find hidden roles with local companies with whom she and Demob Job have close relationships with.  Her hard work, perseverance and contacts within industry managed to secure me my ideal role.  I'd also like to add that her support and mentoring during the process, helped enable my success in securing employment, during what can be a stressful process. I would definitely recommend Joanne and Demob Job to any service leaver”.  John is now employed as a Project Engineer in the North East.

Paul (completed a 22-year career in the Royal Navy as a Marine Engineer)

“I would strongly recommend the team at Demob Job who saw an ideal opportunity for me and supported me through the whole interview selection process up to and including successful employment.  Many thanks to the Demob Job team.”  Paul is now employed as a Field Service Engineer in East Yorkshire.

Robert (ex-Royal Navy Marine Engineer)

I recieved a phone call from Emma explaining a vacancy had become available. Emma was very polite and helpful throughout the process and advised me before and after the interview. Any questions or queries I had were dealt with by Emma after hearing the good news of a successful interview and following job offer. Had Emma not of made the original phone call recognising my skills and job to suit I would not find myself working for a successful company in a role I enjoy. Thank you Emma. Project Engineer (Mechancial), Northumberland

Matt (ex-Royal Navy Assistant Marine Engineering Officer)

I was contacted by Emma having just left the Royal Navy about helping to find me work. After discussing my background and experience she spoke to me in detail about a role which she thought was a strong fit.  I consequently applied and was invited for an interview. Within hours of attending the interview Emma contacted me and told me I had been successful. Throughout the whole process she kept me informed of my progress and gave me advice on how to prepare for the interview. Most importantly I felt like she treated me as a person and not just another case. Highly professional and polite, I couldn’t recommend them enough to any Ex-Forces personnel. Thank you Emma and thank you Demob Job! Project Engineer, Tyne and Wear
