My experience in working with Digi Skills has been very impressive. From start to finish I've felt the communication between us has been clear and this made me very confident and comfortable during the interview and application process. I was also very happy with the transparency shown to me regarding the employer's expectations and the opportunity available. My main praise is the time and effort that was spent with me specifically going through my sales presentation (making sure I nailed it) and understanding how my skills would fit into the role was key to me being successful in the role. From personal experience, I would recommend Digi Skills to anyone who is looking to take their career to a new level.

They Are By Far The Best training and employment agency & they Actually Care About My Career!
The communication and advice from the team was very relaxing and affirmative. They made me feel relaxed and at ease during the interview process and filled me with confidence before and after the interview.
The approach and advice was also very relaxing and informative. The phone calls between us did not feel work related but rather a chat between two friends discussing a new job, the technology industry, workshops, designers and what I wanted out of life. This approach put me at ease and made me feel more confident.
Before I went on to my interview, I had a ‘mock interview’ over the phone. We went through questions, which could possibly pop up in the interview. Not every question in the ‘mock interview’ did come up in the interview but a few of the questions did, and I was well prepared this helped me feel relaxed and confident knowing they were experts in their industry.
If I had any questions about the interview or about the process in general, Digi Skills were only a phone call away and had no issues answering any questions and provided full support from start to finish & we also had a laugh along the way.
Digi Skills knew of my lack of experience because I had only recently finished university but I was assured that my work was good enough for the role and they also assured me that my employer knew of my lack of experience. They knew how to guide me through the interview process with the amount of experience I possessed and they helped me get my first job! I started the job one day after my graduation ceremony and haven’t looked back since. I wouldn’t have gotten this breakthrough without the help of Digi Skills and I can't thank them enough.
The process from start to finish was very reassuring and I was helped along every step of the journey, including after I got the job, which I appreciated. Once I had the job, other companies would’ve parted ways and I may not have heard of them again but not with Digi Skills. They wanted to know how I settled in, what work I was doing, how I was finding the new job etc. and I felt like they actually cared about my future, rather than me being just another ‘job seeker’.
I would defiantly recommend Digi Skills to anyone who is after a job or career advice. They helped me get my first big breakthrough and helped me through the whole process. They had mass amounts of knowledge about every question & are passionate about helping people. Anything I asked I always felt I was speaking with a professional who provided the support I needed & much more.
I thank the team at Digi Skills for all their support and for helping me to get my first job as a Graphic Designer, without them this would not have been possible.
