📨 Two emails, three months apart, both from the same happy client.

The first email was to tell me she’d been successful at interview for promotion to Higher Executive Officer in the Civil Service.

And the second arrived this week to let me know she has now started the new role.

I am absolutely delighted for her and how kind of her to keep me in the loop!

This week’s job success comes from a client who interviewed with a not‑for‑profit organisation for a senior role.

I supported them in preparing for both their first and second‑round interviews.

This client hugely impressed me throughout, so I wasn’t at all surprised to hear they’d also impressed the interview board. I'm happy for them!
