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.

She was with me every step of the way always willing to advise me and she was a great liaison between the company and myself.

Tony (Ex British Army Major)
I have had the benefit of Emma Saxton's help in recently securing a senior logistics management role in London. If I could summarise her many positive professional attributes in three words they would be; proactive, diligent and tenacious. She is undoubtedly the best recruiter I have worked with in recent months and I wholeheartedly recommend her to anyone seeking a new management position, especially those with an Armed Forces background. She has considerable potential to advance in her chosen profession and I will be directly recommending her to friends and colleagues. Emma: it's been a pleasure! Logistics Manager, London
Richard (ex British Army – Royal Signals Electrician)
I was contacted by Joanne Foster from Demob Job recruitment agency regarding an exciting opportunity within a national engineering company. Throughout the recruitment process I was kept fully informed at every stage of the selection process, the communication was excellent and at no stage was I left not knowing exactly what was expected from me. I would like to thank Joanne for all the hard work she has done over the last four months. Richard is now employed as a Service Engineer in Kent.
Another RAF Aircraft Technician secures new job as an Engineer Surveyor: Demob Job
"I am thrilled to share my experience interacting with Kelly Chandler, a truly exceptional recruitment consultant. As an ex-RAF Aircraft Technician transitioning into the civilian workforce, I was initially apprehensive about finding a role that suited my skills and experience. However, Kelly's professional yet personal approach put me at ease from our very first interaction. Kelly took the time to understand my unique background and aspirations, ensuring she matched me with opportunities that aligned with my experience and goals. Her knowledge of the industry and genuine interest in my career progression made the entire process smooth and stress-free. What truly sets Kelly apart is her ability to connect on a personal level while maintaining the highest level of professionalism. She was always available to answer my questions and provided invaluable advice throughout the recruitment process. Thanks to Kelly, I am now happily employed as an engineering surveyor, in a position that perfectly fits my skills and ambitions. I cannot recommend Kelly highly enough for anyone seeking a dedicated, empathetic, and highly skilled recruitment agent. She not only finds you a job but also ensures it is the right fit for your career journey." – Former RAF Mechanical Aircraft Technician, now an Engineer Surveyor.
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.

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.
