Learn how Copeland can help you

How did you first come to work with Copeland?

You approached me via LinkedIn. It felt like you had done your research to offer me a job that was tailored to my experience rather than just a scatter gun approach. It was personal and it felt like you were working with me.

What career goals were you trying to achieve?

For me ultimately it was more responsibility, going into an account management role, utilising my skill set more and career longevity.

How closely did the role fit your career goals?

Very closely. Having had the interviews and learnt more about the company I could see how you could have career longevity. I would be working in a franchise environment so I will be able to utilise my previous experience.

What have been the benefits of working with Copeland?

You already had a relationship with the employer (PSA Finance). You were able to ask questions on my behalf and be the mediator.  I felt I had somebody on board fighting my corner and that I was a valued candidate.

What’s it like working with Copeland?

It’s unprecedented times at the moment, but you have kept me informed, you got in contact with me when you said you would. If I had a question you always got back to me. It’s been an enjoyable process and I’ve been successful. It’s been easy.
