From Academia to The Academy of Motor Trade Recruitment

Job seeker advice

This time last year I had just completed my Geography Degree at the University of Brighton and was thrown into the world of uncertainty. I was back living at home with my mum and had the uphill task of finding full-time employment hanging over my head. After a few applications, I came across an advert for Perfect Placement. After reading Jimi Matthew’s Blog post ‘There is light at the end of the tunnel’ I felt that I was in a similar situation. Perfect Placement appeared to be a company that I would like to work for, so I sent in my application.

After doing my research on the company, reading through their website, and finding out as much information on what the company does, I was given a call by Dan Unstead, one of the Directors. Immediately the friendly natured vibe that I had read about was no longer just words on a screen.

Subsequently, after my chat with Dan, I was invited for an interview at the Home of Perfect Placement, where I embarrassingly parked in the Directors' car parking space (My car looked a bit out of place!). The building itself optimises professionalism, progression and employee well-being. After meeting some of the Perfect Placement team, all of whom were happy, chatty and wanting to be there, I knew this was the place for me.

Unlike other roles I’ve previously worked in, Perfect Placement had dedicated their time and effort into setting up an Academy for my future colleagues and I to become fully fledged Motor Trade Recruiters. This training gave me the confidence that I could succeed in this role. I learned about the Motor Trade, the recruitment element of the job and was even given a chance to meet the people I would be recruiting with and for at a local dealership.

Essentially, Perfect Placement invested in me to help me achieve what I now do on a day to day basis. I now spend my time with both my Candidates and Clients to achieve both employer and employee satisfaction.

Since I’ve joined Perfect Placement it has given me the opportunity to grow, learn and progress both in the sense of personal development and finance. Perfect Placement has allowed me the independence to move out from the family home and given me the security and satisfaction that I was looking for within a role.

If you are genuinely looking for a fantastic company to work for, one which emphasises a family ethos within a professional workplace with a high earning potential we look forward to receiving your application today. Please call our office on 01603 701077 for a chat, or email your application to admin@perfectplacement.co.uk.
