"Ross, a big thank you to you, in particular, and the Trans-Civ team for your support and encouragement in helping me find my ideal position. Like many partners, of Defence members, I have moved every couple of years and as a result found myself at the bottom of the professional pile with each move. After returning from an overseas posting and with the children finished school I realised it was now my time to move forward. Despite my very diverse and unusual background and my "maturity", you pulled everything together and made me realise what skills I truly possessed. I found the whole process from Resume development, assistance with Selection Criteria and interview training to be absolutely professional and very enlightening. Without Trans-Civ I would not have picked up a position so quickly and certainly not at the pay level I achieved. I now know that when that next move comes I will be able to attack the application process with more confidence than ever and with the knowledge that Trans-Civ will be there should I need assistance. A huge thank you for a job well done!!

I just wanted to let you know how my job interview went today. Basically it was exactly as we had practiced it. In fact it was so close that I was waiting for one of you to come through the door and say ‘surprise'! From beginning to end the questions asked were almost identical to what we had gone through so naturally I used this to my advantage and sailed through the interview. I haven't officially got the job but I left the interview feeling very confident and will find out the results next week. I would like to thank you both for helping me improve my interviewing technique which definitely helped make the ‘real thing' a great success. Belinda (Defence Spouse)
I'd like to take this opportunity to thank Ross and the staff at Trans-Civ for helping me access and utilise the services available to me through the Defence SWAPP Program. The services you provided in developing my CV, as well as the extensive Job Interview Training was conducted very professionally but more importantly it was the comfort of knowing you understood the issues facing defence wives trying to obtain work in new localities every couple of years. Upon completion of your program I felt confident and well prepared in submitting my first job application, which resulted in securing the job after being out of the workforce for nearly 9 years. I would have no hesitation in recommending Trans-Civ to friends and other Defence Wives. Thanks again Trans-Civ for everything you have done for me, its great to be back in the workforce.

My wife just had a read of the final draft and she was really impressed with how you put this together, you obviously have a way with words as they say! I am very impressed with the whole document now that it is completed, and I hope that I didn't put you out too much with the short time frame to have this submitted.
Once again thank you very much your hard work I really appreciate it. B & H
