Reviews
Industrial Territory Sales Engineer, placed and promoted
Hi Susan, Thank you very much. Yes it has been an amazing experience for me since joining…would just like to thank you for affording me the chance to Join such an amazing organisation 😊
Digital Marketing Specialist, assisted in job hunt
Thank you so much for your kind help throughout the challenging job hunting journey, I remember at once you even edited my CV, so that I can qualify for the role. And to me that was very kind of you because it was beyond your work scope, if you know what I mean. But that taught me an important life lesson and I then understood why you started “Elchemie”, indeed it was to help candidates to land jobs while you are holding their hands.
May you be more motivated to keep on doing what you are doing. And may your company be blessed with more success and growth.
Kind Regards,
Sales Administrator, placed with Chemical and Medical Waste Management company
Susan was very friendly, professional and helpful from the first time she contacted me regarding the position available at A- Thermal. The process ran smoothly and was informed at all times. I was placed timeously into the position I was initially contacted about and i am thankful for that. She was even so kind to follow up after i have started at the company which goes to show how much she feels about her placements. Thank you again for a wonderful experience.
