Career changes don’t have to be daunting

Career changes don’t have to be daunting

Last week we sat down with Ellie one of our Recruitment Consultants, on our Supply Chain & Logistics team to find out how her first couple of months at Detail2 have been. At Detail2 we recognise that behind our success, are our people, since we started in 2002 making sure we have a strong and happy team has been our main priority.

Here’s what Ellie told us:

1. What made you want to join Detail2?
   I wasn’t happy in my previous job role. Although I had been in the construction industry for 5 years, I felt like it was time for a change and Detail2 seemed to be the perfect place for me. I am a sociable person so the office atmosphere helps me strive to reach my full potential.
2. How has your first couple of months been?
   My first two months at Detail2 have honestly been amazing, we had a team build on my first week and it was a great way to get to know my colleagues. I’ve gone from having no experience in the recruitment industry to make my first placement in four weeks – which I am over the moon about.
3. What have you most enjoyed about working at Detail2 so far?
   The team build was definitely my most enjoyable day so far at Detail2. Followed closely by my first placement. I’ve also enjoyed the training sessions that I have been given at Detail2 and I feel they have really helped me to understand what I need to do, and rather that being bombarded on my first week, I was trained as I went along.
4. How have you found starting a brand new career?
   It’s been exciting for me starting a new career in recruitment, although it was a little daunting at first. I feel like I have found my feet, and I’m looking forward to gaining more knowledge and experience within the industry.
5. How has Detail2 helped you with your career move?
   Detail2 has been amazing since I joined, my colleagues have been so supportive and if ever I have any issues. They are always happy to help. I don’t think I would have been brave enough to take the step into a career in recruitment without the help of Claire and the team!
6. What advice would you give someone looking to get into the industry?
   Do it!!
