I have really enjoyed the course. It has helped me gain the knowledge of customer service which will help me get into work. It has also helped me build my confidence. The teachers/trainers were very supportive and attentive to our needs. The course was well set out and well delivered which encouraged me to learn. Will miss my class mates and our trainers.

This course was really helpful to me at a difficult time, to get me back on track and engaged with setting and working towards my career goals. I also found the experience of working with and helping others reinvigorate my passion to get back to tutoring. John Whitehouse the tutor was great and really boosted the groups collective confidence and was always available when asked for specialist one to one support, I cant thank him and the rest of the Step Ahead team enough.

I have really enjoyed this course and the course has made very a positive impact on my life. Its not just about the end result of getting the job that I want, But its about the stepping stones. The personal development was one of the most vital parts of the course and it helped me to really look within my self to make myself a better person. The tutors I had was Niki and John and they are amazing! They are both patient, kind, understanding and are really good at teaching and able to adapt to everyone's different learning capabilities.
S. O.
Amos was really awesome with how he took the time to explain even if he had to do it 777 times. He was very helpful and made sure we understood what we had to do and was doing. I am thankful, grateful and appreciative. He is very professional and still was able to be humorous, kind and understanding which I really like because I work best like that. I would want want him as my tutor any day. Thank you and Bless you.

Cannot stress enough how helpful and accommodating both Nikki and John were throughout the completion of my course with Step Ahead. It has been so encouraging for me to see how much the other people in the group have developed and the respect I have for them all is immeasurable. Thank you so much for the time and effort you supply at Step Ahead and I hope to keep in contact with you all in the future.
Best wishes to all, and yes, even you John.

Also, It was nice experience to interact with a new people, share learning time, communicate.
Separately, a huge thanks to our trainers Andrew and John, for their professionalism and patience.

Step Ahead is without a doubt the best recruitment firm I've ever encountered. They sincerely care about their employees and go out of their way to ensure that they are happy and healthy. I landed an amazing part-time job through them, and I can't thank StepAhead and especially Shailla enough for being so kind and patient during the process, and for being so approachable.
B. K.
I have recently completed a course in Personal & Social Development. My tutor Mr Amos Fanimo has been absolutely amazing. He has been so helpful and a great support. I can't thank him enough for this hardwork and great teaching skills. I truely reccommend!

A holistic and effective provider for work based qualifications, using modern delivery methods, some teething issues perhaps with the process but all in all a excellent service, would highly recommend.
Lastly a special thanks to my tutor Amos who, despite some complications with attendees delivered a successful, smooth, well structured course, thanks again!

I would recommend Step Ahead to anyone wether you are looking for part time or full time employment. Thank you Step Ahead team.

This is my first time doing a course with Steap Ahead, it has been a delight working and learning from Step Ahead. They have been professional and helpful from the beginning of the course, throughout the course, and at the end of the course they reassure you that they will always be in contact with you helping you throughout your career as and when you need them. Most importantly my tutor John Whitehouse and Wendy have been very supportive and professional. They ensured everyone on the course was included and supported. John has been great and it has been a delight getting to know such wonderful people. If you are looking for courses to give you a career boost, Step Ahead is your place!

I recently took a course in level 1 introduction to early years, level 1 certificate in personal and social development and also a CV writing course. My tutor was Amos Fanimo and he was very professional and helpful throughout all three courses. It was conducted on zoom and was well presented. I would recommend anyone to thinking of taking a course with step ahead to do it.

Amazing organisation, really devoted to make a positive impact into people's lives. Sajeda Akther was my main point of contact, and she was extremely supportive, kind, inspiring, and professional throughout the program. She really helped me achieving my aims and objectives, and I can't thank her enough for that.
G. C.
I feel great, it was a great course, but it was quite a lot to take on and keep a record of after all it was a three week course. It was very interesting too, a lot of regulations that are necessary and I need to act on. I have recent and current experience of service providers changing my terms and conditions and thus making me pay more money by using the term out of contract.
I learnt many great things on the course in managing these issues. But most of all, how to treat customers well to get the best out of them How to show empathy and match and reflect their needs and requirements.
S. S.
I really enjoyed taking this course. The trainers were very knowledgeable, personal thank you to Amos, Nikki and Sajeda for helping me throughout this course.

M. B.
I felt quite overwhelmed initially in taking part in an online class, fearing that it would just not have the social factors a normal class would have and that I’ve realised I learn and work well in. I was surprised to find it very similar and just as social and I was able to learn and complete just as easy.
O. N.
I would highly recommend to anyone who wants to have a great learning experience with a view to achieving more skills and qualifications.

S. W.
This job recruitment agency has been fantastic and prompt in their responsiveness since my initial contact and dealings with them. I have just completed their two weeks' training course (via Zoom) on self-development and customer care and the trainer (John) was superb and engaging. Also, interactions with other staff members have been professional, responsive, supportive and friendly as well. I have had the odd encounter with other job agencies in the past, and find this organisation/company genuine, efficient and "heads and shoulders" above the others - it may be that I am bias, however, I rarely give reviews and this is my own honest and personal opinion. However, you will just have to "see" for yourself!
C. M.
I have attended a Customer Services and Personal and Social Development courses. Both were very informative and interesting and helped me to develop my customer services skills and I've had the opportunity to participate in different tasks with my future colleagues. My tutor, John Whitehouse has been of great help, always helpful and approachable. Overall it has been a very good experience.
J. K.
Emily was a great tutor, she was very patient with me, she was very knowledgeable on the subjects we covered and went out of her way to help get me through the course. It has really made me feel confident that I can move on with better CV and cover letter writing skills. I look forward to gaining full time employment in the near future.

Great organisation! I would like to thank Step Ahead. The course was fun and very informative. They start teaching everything from scratch about employability. I also want to thank to my work mentor Julianna Markovic. She has helped me through about everything such as tweaking CVs, giving information about jobs, getting prepared for interviews, giving feedbacks after interviews etc. She's been always so kind, friendly, understanding and cheerful. I have found a job with the help of Step Ahead and still keep in touch with them. I strongly recommend this organisation to everyone who is willing to find a job!

Y. K.
I was unemployed and doing an employability and interview techniques course at Step Ahead with the opportunity of being offered a career entry 25K per annum DWP job at the end of the course being taught by tutors Andrew and Jasmine. I was impressed with how Recruitment Consultants Julianna and Cristina were highly efficient in processing my I.D., documentation and answering all my questions with thoroughness, encouragement and speed via email amdvin person. Especially since they were overwhelmed with many candidates to deal with. I would also like to thank both Julianna and Cristina personally for initially contacting me as a potential candidate for the Step Ahead programme.
I was helped in my interview techniques, CV skills and covering letter methodology with great skill by tutor Andrew and Jasmine. They were both friendly, patient, outgoing and professional.
After putting into practice the skills I learnt on the programme in the job interview with the DWP I was offered a position with the DWP and I am starting work on 15th March 2021.
Without this programme and what I learned on it, I would still be unemployed now. I recommend you do a Step Ahead programme to enhance your skills and improve your chances of getting a job. Thank you to Julianna, Cristina, Andrew, Jasmine and all the staff from Step Ahead. I will always be grateful to them.
F. C.
I took a two week course taught by John Whitehouse. They were training days, they made me grow a lot and made me much more confident. John has a way of explaining that he engages you personally with activities that inspire you to want to grow. I recommend everyone to follow his courses, professional growth is guaranteed beyond expectations!
I. E.
I found the training very educative and productive. I provided a leverage where i was able to see eligibility in a different light and i came out of it, more knowledgeable space than i previously was in. I would thank the Trainer, Emily for this. Her lively activities and patience went a long way to help in understanding the course.
J.
I've had a really good experience and would be happy to reccommend step ahead to family and friends hunting for their next job. I had been looking for a job for months and was unsuccessful until Shailla contacted me about a role. An interview was arranged very quickly and I got the job! I very much appreciated all the help I got along the way.
M. L. M.
I am pleased with the lady who has been in contact with me and I have just finished a course with them.

I would recommend them if you need any support as they give confidence in your skills and your knowledge.
L. M.
I was offered help from Step Ahead via Universal Credit and they have been quick to respond to queries, positive, professional, informative and I am really impressed and grateful. I attended a 3 hour online zoom session to help with a specific application process, they are providing another zoom session on Friday and have given hints with CV and interview tips. I haven’t needed to apply for a job for well over a decade and their support is invaluable. Thank-you!
M. M.
Andrew Mongi Is a Flawless trainer really enjoyed the course with this trainer
S. M.
Really recommend working with Step Ahead. I have worked on assignments with them on two occasions now. My consultant Trudi was proactive, efficient and very professional. She was charismatic and took the time to listen to what roles I wanted to do in order to build a career for myself in the long term not just the short term. I was placed into an assignment in record time (3 days!) and I was very happy with that! I haven even referred my partner to use Step Ahead as I believe they are one of the most reputable in London. Thank you!
J. B.
During my time with Step Ahead I have only ever encountered a professional experience with opportunities for employment with many varied Museums/Galleries and Office workplaces.
I have recommended signing up to others and will continue to do so in the future. A very helpful and experienced staff also are an asset to this agency.
K. R.
My acquaintance with Sahan De Abrew, Team Leader at Step Ahead started in mid May 2021, when my previous recruitment consultant handed me over to Shan. I have been out of work for more than 2 years, after being in employment in management positions for 30 years. The support I got from Sahan over the last month has been beyond the call of duty, he has always been available to answer questions, review documents and work on interview skills. Over this period, I got two interviews and Sahan was more than willing to help with interview prep. Finally, with lots of hard work and help from Sahan I got my ideal job after 2 years of trying.
If you ask me, did working with Sahan get me the job? I will say the help I got from Sahan was invaluable to my success.
Thank you Sahan and Step Ahead.
M. A.
Very Professional and so helpful especially for the learners! I personally learned a lot and so happy with the Step Ahead Social Enterprise... They are a great help in achieving my goal.
J. P.
Step Ahead has been a great place to learn. They met all my expectations. Amos and Emily, the trainers were very good and helpful at all times.
J. P.
From the first day I signed up with step ahead the people who were helping me find a job were always supportive and encouraging. Before joining them I had been applying for many jobs and was getting no luck. Some jobs would reject my applications and others just wouldn’t get back to me. However when I did start working with step ahead the people who worked with me personally ( Chakira Gervais ) and ( Cristina Iniguez) always helped me keep my head up and kept believing in me. They even helped me believe in myself that I could get a good job even when I thought that it wouldn’t be possible because I had been rejected by so many other jobs which had given me a lot of self doubt. I thank Cristina and Chakira for not giving up on me and helping me kick start my career with the job they helped me achieve.
D. B.

I would like to take this opportunity to appreciate and thanks Step Ahead for helping me in my hunt for the right suitable. I would specifically like to mention Nathan Woolery who is working very closely with all my job applications. He is been helping me with understanding the job roles, how to do the application, what to prepare before the interview and he's been focusing on enhancing my skills and improving my CV and cover letter. I'll be very happy to recommend Step Ahead to friends and family for their job hunt.
A. T.
I am collaborating with Shailla from Step Ahead, and she is very lovely, very friendly and genuinely interested in helping you. Very communicative and helpful, she answered quickly to any inquiry I have and goes the extra mile for you. I am 100% recommending the agency to all my friends and family.

Fantastic 1:1 interview session with Sally Mao, this morning.

Thanks again, Sally

Completed an Introduction to Health & Social Care in Adult and Children and Young People Setting Award with Step ahead. The team are very professional and made it very easy to register for the course. I found that Amos Fanimo the trainer, instantly put you at ease with his first hand knowledge of the subject and was very patient and professional in dealing with a variety of students at different abilities. I was thinking of a career change and this course helped me feel confident in my choice. Step Ahead also had an employer on hand to answer our questions and informed us of vacancies within their organisation which we could apply to. Keep up the good work Amos and the team.

I would like to thank Sajeda Akther, from Step Ahead, for all her help. She has helped me immensely with my job search. We have been having one to one sessions, and in these sessions, Sajeda is always very friendly, patient and knowledgeable. She has told me where to find the jobs that I am looking for, how to complete online applications, and how to apply for jobs to increase my chance of getting the interview. She has also helped me with my cover letter, as this is something I have always struggled with. Sajeda has given me the confidence and knowledge to find the right job. I highly recommend her.

Step ahead were always very attentive and very keen in helping me find sustainable employment. Heikel and Cristina were always available and very respectful of my particular employment needs. Would definitely recommend step ahead for people who are struggling to find employment by themselves.

It was a great course but I felt it could have been shortened to two weeks

Today, I attended an online Workshop for the application of the role of a Work Coach for DWP. This was such professional, informed and so helpful. May I thank both Sahan de Abrew & Maria Velickova presenting this to all the candidates that attended.
M. J.
I am very pleased with my experience with Step Ahead not only I got the job that they did put my CV forward, but above all the support and care they offered me. I highly recommend.

I was so happy to receive a call from Shailla from Step Ahead today, very understanding and friendly. I found her to be polite and very professional I have worked with Step Ahead in the past.. I’m very much looking forward to a fresh start.
C. G.
I had a terrific experience with Step Ahead, I was able to get a job within less than a couple of weeks of meeting Sahan and Christie. They are very dedicated and really care about getting you into work and helping you find the right job that you are suited to. They have an incredible work ethic themselves and their positive attitude really made the whole experience worthwhile and enjoyable, it was a pleasure meeting and getting to know them.
Y. N.
Great quality of information! This will definitely help towards starting work and further work and career prospects! Thanks to John and the Step Ahead Team for helping me get back on my feet again to now start work with confidence and more knowledge!

Hello Andrew and Lucy
Andrew just wanted to drop you and Lucy a message to thank you so much for the opportunity of taking part in this class. I am thoroughly enjoying it, not only learning so much from the course but learning a great deal about myself to.

Thank you both.
See you on zoom later (I’m trying to update my workbook before we begin yesterday was quite a long day after a great zoom meeting with Sheila and Christie from StepAhead to!)

I have joined StepAhead on 2nd week February 2021.
Since I have joined StepAhead Sally Mao has helped me continuously with CV improvement, sending job links to me and regular check up via email.
Apart from helping me with Cv and sending me job links the most outstanding and unbelievable thing is that Sally had taken her time out to give me call and speak to me about jobs and giving me advise via phone which was absolutely amazing.
Recently I lost my job and was in very difficult position and Sally again had taken her time out to speak to me more then she should have and giving me the comfort I needed. Sally has send me links where I could get advise.
I want to thank Sally for all her help and support right from the start till today mostly with the advise given by phone.
On number of occasions I needed advise and Sally gave the advise I needed , speaking to me via phone.
I called Sally when I needed too and if Sally was busy then Sally will call me back when she is free.
Sally was more then just a Recruitment advisor or consultant, Sally is like a good friend helping another friend when needed.
Overall Sally is amazing person whom you can talk to and open up as well and get the right advise and comfort at the same time.
Amazing work from Sally , Sally is all in one package.
S. C.
Shailla from Step Ahead was amazing!
She was very helpful and she was able to get me a job within 1 day!
I 100% recommend them!
S. A.
Sajeda from Step Ahead contacted me to find out about my job search, work experience and problems faced during the job search.
Sajeda did not waste time at all, and straight away guided me to a very useful link on govt. sight from where I could find lot of opportunities in Govt. sector. Sajeda is a considerate, refined and ethical professional who identified my needs quickly and provided help to apply for various jobs. I finally got a considerably good job offer from a bank in Central London.
I wish Sajeda all the best in her future endeavours. She is a great inspiration and give her best i. helping others who need to find new jobs
Beat regards,
Syed

The course was amazing and confidence building. My work coach was very kind and understanding and gave very good constructive criticism. I am so glad I have completed this course!
R. R. H.
I will recommend Step Ahead social Enterprise to any one who want to take a course in early years, the staff on the whole are very patient and polite, my trainer Amos Fanimo was able to explain the wok book and help me with some of the skills I'm lacking, it was a great experience and the best place to be.
M. B.
Sajeda was excellent support for me in looking for employment and with her support I managed to secure a perfect post for me. She was professional, caring and had lots of great advice. I recommend her highly.
S. S.
My agent Shailla is always polite and friendly, at the same time professional and genuinely interested to help with my queries. There are no delays with timesheets and everything seems well organised. I feel in good hands working with Shailla and Stepahead and would recommend them without any hesitation!!
d. I.
Emily was a very good tutor, who was very energetic, and was very detail in her training. She took time to feedback and was very supportive. Overall I would recommend this course.
L. W.
Emily worked very hard to ensure we had all understood each module of our course. She gave good constructive feedback, and I feel much more confident in myself.
K. B.
My experience with Step Ahead has been pleasant right from the start. I would like to shed some light on this talented Consultant, Paulette McKenzie.
Paulette exceeds the expectations of a standard recruitment consultant; she has exceptional rapport building skills and is authentic, vibrant and friendly. As a team, we successfully secured my new role as a Quality and Compliance Officer for an Amazing company.
I highly recommend Paulette for her special eye; her ability to source the right candidate to fit the right role, just as she did with me. Paulette’s approach is fantastic, she has been great to liaise with and I believe she is an asset to Step Ahead.
To any potential candidates out there looking for a new role I can assure you that this company is not a waste of time. It is very worthwhile making the call and building a relationship with one of their Consultants, especially with the likes of Paulette who has been very supportive towards me during my experience.
M. N.
Hey guys,
I'm so pleased to register with the Agency and was straight welcome and placed by Shailla. I was worrying after my contract finish but as soon as I join step ahead all was sorted. Shailla brought things so quick and I will be forever grateful. I'm a full time worker and enjoying my work place. Thanks Shailla, you're just an amazing person in the world.
R. A. E.
I applied with Paulette, Then Worked with Trudi and Shailla...
I heard a lot of good about the company, Trudi who left was an excellent staff, and Shailla replaced her position. Shailla is smart, helpful and always tries her best and delivers. She always is able to find what could be a relevant role to you and supports you in all that you need. If I was her manager, I'd give her a raise- Updated after a year of employment: I have worked for roughly a year with Stepahead, but started with Shailla a little after I had my first job, she has been on point, always looking for jobs which are of my interest, she understands my level of commitment, works towards communicating and ensuring the staff are not effected by Covid, and in general been on point with communication. She is very intelligent and understand what others needs. Very capable and efficient staff. She also has communicated that she loves her work environment and I can ensure you that loving what you do will make you do your work better. I think if you want a job role that could be suitable for your growth, stepahead can be a good start
A. _.
I think that step ahead are a really good recruiter and the recruiters that are there to help such as Christie and Kristina were very helpful. My tutor Jackie Douglas was very helpful, and she helped me work through my employability and customer service units. She also helped us work through many other different units that helped me gain more confidence skills. Overall i found the experience very rewarding as I managed to gain a career out of it, and I would recommend it to anyone out of work looking to improve their skills or gain new ones.
E. B.
Step Ahead have been fantastic in helping find employment. My main contact, Paulette has been brilliant at organising interviews, answering any queries that I have had and helping me with interview techniques. She is always friendly, has helped build my confidence and always goes the extra mile for her clients. I would strongly recommend this agency if looking for temporary work or a permanent position. :-)
C. G.
As a graduate temp, I thought timesheets and finances were going to be daunting but Shailla has made everything so easy. In addition to that, she calls all our temp staff every Tuesday just for a chat and it's honestly one of the best parts of my week - especially during these uncertain times! Thank you Shailla!
D. N.
The training with step ahead has been amazing, I was helped with my confidence and I was encourage to do things which I was afraid to do before. Philip is amazing being always there for you when you call and ask questions, hopefully this will lead into work for me very soon. I have been to other programs before, however step ahead do cares for you after you finish the programme, they are still in touch with you and helping you all the way.
I do recommend step ahead to everyone who wants to get back into work and needs help. Daria
T. W.
Sajeda is amazing hands down! Working with her has been such a breeze and she has made me feel so comfortable and confident in finding the perfect role for me. She gives me 200% effort and follows up with everything (even when I have forgotten!). Without her I don't think I would have nearly as much confidence in myself, skills and the job market. I will 10000000% recommend Sajeda Akther!!!!
C. A.
I completed a course with Stepahead today, it was useful and interesting.
The trainer was an engaging presenter, easy to listen, professional.
Thank you for the good course.
D. M.
The course has helped me to improve confidence and my tutor Jackie Douglas has genuinely been very helpful and very professional, in delivering her course (training) that I have attended. To make an emphasis of how this course(training)n has massively helped me, is that I have attended a Job Interview while still on the course(training).
The course have helped me, build up my confidence and make new friends.
I conclude stating that I am very grateful for this course due to Step Ahead staff, including Christie for placing me on the course and Kristina,who arranged an interview for Imperial Health Care NHS, I am currently awaiting feedback from NHS.
M. A.
StepAhead a wonderful agency, I have been working with them for more than a year and I am very happy and satisfied. In particular, I would like to thank ,,Shailla Chughtai
Senior Recruitment Consultant'' who has supported and helped me all this time. Thanks StepAhead.
K. A.
I registered with Step Ahead and had a consultation with Trudi Hamer. She was very kind and helpful. She took the time to discuss my background and motivations and made the effort to seek out contacts and potential employers in my field. Within a week she arranged an interview for me for a job that matched my interests and skill-sets. She went the extra mile by maintaining a dialogue throughout the process. I truly appreciate her efforts and involvement. I am now employed and am very grateful. I highly recommend the service!
A. S.
I came across Step Ahead as my partner Kristina has resumed working there after a number of years away. From everything I have seen the company really cares about it's own staff and the people it helps to find work by giving them all the tools possible including running an employability course for those really struggling. Well done Step Ahead staff keep up the good work.
I. P.
I warmly recommend this agency, I have been contacted soon after sending my Cv. I was helped by Shailla, who shown me her high professionals skills. She has been patient and caring in helping me all the way through the process.

I appreciate her quick response and efficiency. Step Ahead is very efficient and provide an exceptional service. I would definitely recommend them.
D. F.

I. E.
I enjoyed every bit of the training and learning. The course has helped build my self-confidence, self-esteem and am ready to get back into the labour market. It is worth the shot. You guys are doing a great job, especially my tutor Shama Fida. Kudos.
t. a.
I have been with Stepahead for almost 2 years now and I have to say it is one of the best recruitment agencies I have ever joined. With that being said I have to highly praise Trudi Hamer who has been very supportive of me. Trudi is always very efficient and is brilliant with communication. Trudi has always ensured I am kept up to date with new processes and happy in my roles. :)
K. A.
The course was well structured and presented.
All of the staff are very friendly, helpful and understanding.
Our tutor Jackie Douglas was very well informed and was willing to go above and beyond to help me and everyone else in the course to complete it to the best of our abilities.
Also, Christie Hoyte the Manager of Employability Training is an absolutely amazing person; she has helped motivate me to attend and complete the course and she is also willing to go above and beyond to help me source employment.
I am glad that I decided to attend this course as not only have I met and got to know the lovely staff members such as Jackie and Christie; but I have also met lots of new people and made some more new friends.
S. L.
Have had a great experience dealing with Step-Ahead. Shailla, my agent has been very communicative and supportive and always professional.
A. W.
I would be happy to recommend Step Ahead agency to my friends and family hunting for "the right job" or the next right career move. Paulette, who I met a couple of weeks ago, has been absolutely great in supporting me to identify suitable employment opportunities. Her advice on how to market my skills and experience in the current market has been spot on and very much appreciated.
A.
First time I used stepahead I secured a job within a week. Elena was very helpful, gave me advice and guidance throughout, which I really appreciated. Second time around Paulette was the one helping me and she went above and beyond, guiding me and helping me which I really appreciated. I always recommend stepahead as an agency because I have always received such exceptional services.
C. D.
The step ahead work shop on the STAR interview technique, has prepared me for my up coming interviews. Being prepared boosts ones confidence. So yes it was invaluable.
N. D.
I have had a pleasant training course with Andrew who has been very helpful and insightful during the week. Sahan's employability session at the end of the course was good and informative.
G. H.
One of Step Ahead's recruitment consultants Trudi reached out to me after finding my CV on Reed, regarding a senior communications role within the public sector. I have been very impressed with the service Trudi has provided. The whole application process has been smooth and the communication throughout has been excellent - Trudi has been very responsive, supportive and helpful. As a candidate I highly recommend using Step Ahead.
L. C.
I have recently registered with Step Ahead for finding a part-time work in central London. My recruitment consultant is Phillip Kyriakides who is very professional and supportive. I especially appreciate Phillip's constant communication and effort to make the registration with the agency with ease as well as working hard to find a suitable job for me. In addition, I have also recently been in a pre-employment training programme for 2 weeks with Step Ahead. The trainer was Andrew Mongi who has delivered a very professional, creative and enjoyable course. I would recommend Step Ahead to anyone who needs an agency to find jobs and the career training they provide. With best wishes, Lily
A. C.
I have had such a great experience with Step Ahead. I started off anxious that I wouldn't find employment, but ended up getting a placement that I really enjoy, within weeks of registering and meeting with them. Joanne has been amazing throughout and she's also been really supportive from the get go. Totally reccommend to anyone contemplating registering.
b. a.
Thank you very much Stepahead for your excellent service. Shailla was absolutely fantastic. Sent my CV Monday evening last week, by Tuesday all registered and Wednesday I had 2 interviews booked. Tuesday this week I started work. In a space of under a week I HAD A JOB and the added bonus was I am in an organisation I had always wanted to work for!
Shailla is professional, courteous and encouraging!! I am so grateful an ex colleague referred me to her.
Well done Shailla keep up the good work.
S. E.
Did a workshop yesterday with Sahan and Maria. Both were very professional and clear in their delivery of information and I found it very useful. Will definitely be coming back to them for some more advice.
G. H.
I have had a great experience and time with StepAhead. I have worked close with Trudi in particular and she was very helpful. Any issues I had she wouldn't hesitate to give me her time and effort to help. Definitely recommend if looking to join an agency.
S.
I’ve had such an amazing experience working alongside Jackie Douglas. In the short period of time knowing her, Jackie made me feel very comfortable, not only when communicating over the phone but also during 1-2-1 interactions.
i am very lucky to have met someone who takes their job role seriously.
Jackie listened effectively to my past experiences and life circumstances and proved that by helping me get into the working environment that i liked.
I’d most definitely recommend “Step ahead” to family, friends & even strangers.
Thankyou for the support & guidance i never knew was available for me!
S. M.
I recently did employment course with Jackie Douglous. Her enthusiasm and positive attitude really helped students come out of their shell and gain confidence in themselves. I would highly recommend the course for anyone that has been out of employment for a while.
J. T.
I have been with Step Ahead for a number of years and they have always looked after me really well. Trudi Hamer has recently become my point of contact and I have really appreciated the time she has taken to get to know me and how I work. She is always really helpful and friendly when I need advice. Thanks so much Trudi, I really appreciate all you do.
T. F.
Outstanding agency. I was lucky to contact to Shaila, who is working as a Senior Recruiter Consultant. She is attentive, warmth and immensely kind and professional. She was very committed since the beginning. Proactive and always available. Absolutely recommended.
y. m.
I have worked closely with Step Ahead for over a year now and have developed a strong working relationship with Christie Hoyte (Training Manager). I have supported Step Ahead with their team recruitment and we have developed a strong partnership. Always a pleasure to work with Step Ahead, great team.
A. J.
I have used step ahead on three occasions for recruitment for my store (PANDORA) . Nathan and Sahan are excellent representative, as they are efficient, passionate and professional on how they conduct themselves . They listen to what I was looking for and provided me with some great staff over the years. Thank you step ahead, your services are always appreciated.
B. S.
Step ahead have been brilliant in helping me get back into work. they were extremely helpful in setting up interviews and finding me employment, especially Mariam Ahmed from the Employability team who were supportive with any other commitments that I also had and very friendly and understanding. I would recommend step ahead to anyone that is wanting to progress in work.
R.
Step Ahead, especially Sahan from the employability department helped me get into work at The British Library. Their great relationship with the Library helped to keep me employed with full-time hours during the last two years. I recently gained a permenant full-time role with the Library, which was only made possible by the temp work that Step Ahead was able to provide me with. It is my understanding that Step Ahead works with many other notable London institutions and workplaces so I would recommend Step Ahead to anyone looking for job roles to gain valuable work experience
S. E.
Working with Stepahead is always a pleasure. Especially Paulette, whose cheerful attitude and consistent hard work to match me with a job is much appreciated. She always goes the extra mile! All my queries are answered quickly and I am always confident that they will exceed in finding me a great placement.
N. K.
I have had a great experience and time with Step Ahead. I joined in July 2016 and had a nice consultant named Jessica Brennan. I then left in February 2018 due to ill health. I came back recently to a lovely consultant named Trudi Hamer, who is so professional, helpful and so on point. The whole application process has been excellent because of Trudi. I would definetly recommend Step Ahead and tell all to ask for Trudi. She is definetly a great asset to the agency. Thank you Trudi Hamer 😘
C. M.
Maria and Heikel have been great in all the workshops they do. Really kind abd patient ready to answer all our questions, explain and help us as much as thry can with further 121 sessions for whoever needs extra help. What you do is really appreciated guys!
A. R.
I used to work with this agency around 3 years ago. After the Company I worked for after them closed, I went back to them because I had a very good experience and I thought it was the best option at that moment!
I worked with Step Ahead both as a “flexible employee” and as a client asking for some services from my previous Company. Regardless of the fact that we never managed to close a deal (due to my previous Company having to focus on other projects), Angelina Kapeta in particular was always happy to explain their different services and always followed up professionally and pleasantly.
I’d recommend it to any client or anyone looking for a job!
J. K.
Very great and efficient professional service. Great team and especially a big shout out to Shailla the recruitment consultant. God bless you
D. B.
I have enjoyed the employability and customer service coursed delivered by my tutor Jackie Douglas. During the course I have built up my motivation and confidence, I am now equipped and ready to assert my learning into practice to secure employment, by March 2018.
Prior, to starting the course, I was looking for employment, but found it difficult to secure the job, due to lack of confidence.
I know feel ready to market my skills to potential employers and gain a job.
Thank you for the employability delivery, the course has set me up for life, with the skills required to gain employment.
C. B.
Training was Brilliant and Emily is an excellent tutor .I would highly recommend this course to anyone wanting to get a job in Hospitality. M.B

Hello my Name Is Shane Pappin
I was transferred to Stepahead from my local Job Center – Streatham. I first met Mariam from Stepahead at the Job Center where she was telling us about the service and what it offers.
It sounded truly amazing to me and for what I wanted, it was perfect. Which was to find work in Warehouse, Retail, and Refuse Collection. I then went to see my Advisor there called: Jackie Douglas who was so understanding of my Disability and so understanding of what I wanted to do as we sat down and spoke about this more in-depth.
I told Jackie about my Work History and why I am currently not in work, and I also told her what I wanted to get into as a job and she was very professional mannered and very understanding with a polite and respectable manner, which was so lovely to see.
I filled out a few forms which took no time, any questions I was not sure about, Jackie provided assistance to me in order to not only help me out but to also help me understanding what it all means to. Which I cant thank her enough for. Jackie then looked straight away for work for me within working distance.
She then Applied for a few jobs for me, in which 1 of them got back to me. Which was for a Warehouse position job based in Victoria Train Station. The job was fine ETC. however the hours were not suitable for my needs, so I had to Decline that 1 job.
Which was not a problem. Jackie then calls me shortly after offering me another Full Time job which was Warehouse Assistant / Full Time at Natoora in Bermondsey.
I went for Interview Yesterday ( 07 / 11 / 2018 ). All went well, so I start my Paid 12 week trial of the job tomorrow ( 09 / 11 / 2018 ) at 07.00AM. After the 12 week Trial, the job could turn Into Full Time Permanent Position which is absolutely amazing. Jackie Douglas my Advisor was so effective. She got me 2 jobs in under 2 weeks. One accepted one not. She truly is amazing and I cant thank you enough.
I cannot recommend Stepahead enough, they truly are a amazing Company which have a very professional understanding of what there clients want and they go the extra mile to secure you into employment regardless of what is different about yourself. Whether I wanted Full Time or Part Time.
They had me covered. I truly believe that Stepahead is all you will ever need when you are having any trouble getting into Employment. They are so effective and truly the best at what they do.
Very professional, Approachable, Polite mannered and will only put you forward to jobs in which you are happy with everything about the job
Highly recommend
5/5 All day everyday
S. S.
I meet Paulette in March she was very helpful and had an professional attitude towards me and gave me tremendous amount of encouragement to find work. She has made clear to me the importance of "Stepahead" Web site as they promote various jobs in there which I may find of interest. I'm very pleased I have registered with them.
F. C.
Had a great experience. Was assisted by Trudi who helped me secure a role in University of Greenwich, which i am enjoying so far. And since has been very approachable for any questions and easily reachable via email/ text. Would recommend this agency for anyone seeking a role in universities.
C. B.
I thoroughly enjoyed the Customer Service course and the trainers Emily Bunsu and John Whitehouse were very helpful and delivered the course brilliantly. Thank you both.
Y. F.
Step Ahead changed my friend's life!
I recommended my friend to Step Ahead and they offered him a huge amount of encouragement to leverage his academic qualifications and provided all the necessary support. This resulted in him successfully securing an excellent role, which has lead to a promotion and a superb career path.
J. E.
I took part in a workshop via Zoom with Maria and Sahan. The registration process was easy and handled professionally, and workshop content was relevant and presented well.
c. t.
I recently got recommended by a friend to get in contact with Step Ahead in my job hunting. They are very professional and helpful in finding me my upcoming role especially Elena. Her hard work ensure that the whole process was easy. Thank you Elena!
B. x.
Emily was my teacher, she was very informative, very helpful and she is a professional.
I give her 5star!
c. T.
i was introduced to step ahead to improve my skills and to gain further knowledge in a new course.The tutor was amazing and also the team who i was learning with as we had a lot of fun learning together. Learnt a lot which i can use in a future careers and to gain further education.
r. a.
I thought I've left this review already but I might have done something wrong, so here we go again.
The fact even government bodies are referring to these amazing guys says it all. They are always available and supportive but mostly they bring you up to speed in one's job search process. With them I felt "strong"again.
Furthermore I am personally interacting with Heikel El Hamadi who gives very important information about the changes in the recruitment processes which nowadays unfortunately we need to adapt to... Most importantly Heikel speaks our language.. "plain english"...so that everyone can clearly understand topics and hints... Strongly recommend.
R. M.
I enjoyed the Step Ahead NCFE Employability & Customer Service, I gained a lot of support through out the course, Mrs Douglas even came out to meet me at a costa so I could finish all my work as I had to miss a couple days because I was ill. I gained a lot of experience and new found knowledge around customer service and interviews, I would recommend this Course to anyone who wants to make a change in their life and gain a career in customer service, I can now Apply for my Apprenticeship with the NHS As a Customer Service Assistant Apprentice, this was all because of Step Ahead and their strong team willing to help people make a change to their life, from me and all of my class mates.
Thank You Step Ahead
& Thank You Mrs Jackie Douglas.
A. O.
The recruitment staff at Step Ahead - such as Christie, Elizabeth, Elena and Cristiane - are extremely helpful and determined to help you secure employment whilst the tutor for the Employability (and Customer Service) course, Jackie, is very helpful and competent on top of giving invaluable and motivational advice in regards to securing a job or even general life. Furthermore, the course is well organised and structured in addition to providing opportunities to reinforce old skills, develop new skills, and gain a better insight into becoming more attractive to employers or delivering excellent customer service.
Step Ahead WILL guarantee you more interviews quickly and with significantly smaller shortlists for the associated jobs, just ensure you do your part and prepare for them properly. Make sure you maintain contact with this excellent organisation as they will keep helping you even after the completion of the Employability course.
O. B.
Thank you, Shailla, for the great experience with StepAhead. She encouraged me and gave me all the support needed to walk confident and positive to my interview. Thanks to her, now I'm having the best job.
M. C.
I would highly recommend Stepahead, in particular Elena Christodoulou who has been so amazing and helpful, and cared very much about keeping me in steady employment which eventually led to the permanent job I have always wanted. Had it not been for Elena I would not have managed to secure the vacancy. She has always managed to find me work and a decent salary which I am forever grateful.
She really is an asset to her company and the reason why I would recommend Stepahead above any employment consultancy. It is because of hard working employees like Elena who really care about the individuals and do all their best to look after the agency workers. It's very rare to find someone like her who does their job very well and in all my experience I have never seen anyone do their job any better!
D.
Early Years Childcare very good informative course would recommend
N. T.
Step Ahead is a great agency. they really support you and check in on you all the time to make sure everything is good. Elena in Particular has always been very supportive and helpful and made me feel at ease from the beginning. I would recommend Step Ahead to anyone and ask for Elena
T. V.
I really enjoyed this course and my tutors were great,they were really encouraging and giving their best to make sure we were fully understand the progress of the course.
A. z.
My experience at the assessment day with Elizabeth and Shirley was great. They both were friendly and kind providing very helpful tips to help us progress. Thank you to you both for the help you have given and hopefully I get recruited, fingers crossed.
B. J.
I regularly receive help from step ahead from a lady called Trudi. If I was able to leave her more than 5 stars I would as the level of service I receive from her every time is outstanding. If I ever have any issues I know I can just ring up or drop an email and know with complete certainty that she will do her absolute upmost to resolve it quickly and efficiently. I could not be more thankful for the help that she has provided to me and many other people in my office over the past few months. Honestly can not fault her! Absolutely Amazing!! 😀
O. S.
I found StepAhead online through a job site, and have had nothing but a pleasureable experience from day one.
I applied for a role through Step Ahead, where I was put in touch with a recruitment specialist, in my case Joanne Okuefuna, who quickly contacted me and arranged for me to come in and get all of the paperwork completed. The very next day I began my first contract.
Joanne kept in regular touch with me throughout the placement, always checking to see if I was okay and if I had any issues to get I touch with her.
Overall, I have had a very pleasurable experience with Step Ahead and would reccomend them to anyone.
C. B.
l had a wonderful experience with Stepahead throughout the training course. My tutor Jackie Douglas has been very helpful and professional throughout the training process. Jackie Douglas is a good asset for Stepahead, she got passion with her job and a tutor with a heart.

I joined the employability course to up skills, I required customer service knowledge to gain a job in this area. The course was delivered by tutor Jackie Douglas, she was very supportive and guided me through the 12 units to achieve full qualification of employability skills and customer service.
I now confidence and ready to apply for jobs, my plans are to obtain employment in the next few months.
I will recommend the employability course to anyone, looking to build up new skills and gain employment.

I have just finished an Employability course with Step ahead . I started the first day being quite negative but by our first break which was around an hour and a half after we got there, my whole attitude had changed . Our tutor Jackie Douglas is amazing at what she does she inspired me to be more confident in my abilities ( she actually said I have great potential in a managerial role ) I appreciate that as being unemployed especially after redundancy made me feel isolated and literally redundant which is not a good feeling.
As for the course itself it did give me a better understanding or a refresher if you like on Customer service , some things I had forgotten, I was always quite bad at time management in regards to my work load . I’m confident that in my next role I will be able to implement what I have learnt.
I probably should of mentioned this at the beginning our assessor Christie was more than helpful in explaining the process she was very approachable and it actually felt like I was talking to a friend at the same time she was also professional. I commed her for that as that is a very difficult balance to achieve .
Safe to say I am happy I was given this opportunity as I not only learnt things about myself but I met some really good people who I hope to keep in contact with
Thank you Step ahead

Whilst searching for a job to return to after having my son i came across Step Ahead on the internet and gave them a call. I'm so pleased that i did. I mostly dealt with Elena and she went above and beyond my expectations. I told her the type of work that i was looking for and she done everything she could to help. Nothing was too much for her or any of the Step Ahead staff. I'm now happily employed in a job that i love and I really can't thank them enough.
L. P.
I have attended two workshops so far and, have been very impressed with the service. Heikel El Hamadi has been especially helpful and very knowledgeable in what he does.

When I enrol to this course I was feeling nervous and scare also didn't have enought confident .
After this course I can feel the freedom to think and express my self.
I feel very happy to be in an enviroment that helps me to use all my potential and skills.
I have received a great support and advice from my Tutor Jackie Douglas all the way through and i have improved my customer service skills , and also use new technics and methods to apply for a job.
I feel extremely lucky that during this training procces I was set up for interviews and apply for a job working with the NHS , and after I have applied everything that I have learned I had a great news and got the job.
I can not thank Jackie Douglas enough for preparing me with the skills to assert myself in a interview forum, I am over the moon with joy, for getting a job.
H. T.
I was referred to stepahead via the jobcentre and they privided me with the opportunity to join an employability and customer service course. I found this course and the tutor Jackie Douglas extremely helpful. Both the course and Jackie privided me with the tools and confidence to apply them in my interviews. It refreshed my memories on skills already had and also forced me out of my comfort zone to gain confidence public speaking and other areas. Through using these skills and the support of Jackie, Christie and Kristina who work for stepahead i have been able to secure an apprenticeship role in a job i have always wanted.

thanks Elizabeth
M. R.
Trudi (Hamer) took time when we first met to clarify what I was after and how she and Step Ahead could help. As a job-seeker, it's rare to come across a consultant who stays in touch and actually keeps me up-to-date on any progress on applications, not to mention the encouraging messages when there's no progress to report. She makes creative connections, keeps it authentic, is a great source of support, and her positive attitude is encouraging and infectious. In a word, a diamond.
A. A.
Employability Department of Step Ahead is excellent. Helps people from Entry level to the highest levels.
I have recommended a few people and the agency found jobs for them. Delivers an impressive service.

I can't fine any other way to describe Step Ahead recruitment part fom (excellent).
I can only speak based on my own experience working with an effective team of people.
Elena Christodoulou is such an amazing member of that team, she placed me in the right environment of work and the good part is to make sure I get paid on time.it's all positive.
S. G.
I've worked with Elena for over 7 years both as a long term temp and also recruited staff from Step Head for my current employer. Elena is super responsive and helpful. She always tries her best to place the right person in the right job. Thanks for all your help Elena!

At times I felt things were progressing slowly but I know some work differently to others which enabled equal opportunity learning.
Thank you to all involved.

I attended an interview yesterday after being referred by Cristiane. I am so grateful, She was there to greet me, and made me feel extremely calm and relaxed by giving me a brief , prior to my interview with the manager at the location. Cristiane was very helpful in providing such a great opportunity for me in the sector of work I've been seeking. Things went GREAT and I look forward to the next stages, I feel that she made this experience so much more worth while. Krisrina gave us great advice," very astonished by Christies input, she has assisted the team all the way from the start to end, keeping us updated with what's going on and ensuring that we are ready to take the next steps, she drives us to reach our targets. Jackie helped tremendously thoughout the whole course, Jackie helped with my confidence, she also gave us lectures and improved my ability with interview skills, working with a team and the principles of personal performance and development. Jackie has definitely had a GREAT impact on my employability and customer service skills, I really can't ask for a better teacher. She was amazing....I am so grateful to have attended this course and to have been apart of this journey and to have met so much inspiring people. Thank you all. Definitely recommended

I have previously completed an apprenticeship at work leading NHS trust specialising in the newest technology and London top cancer centre. I was able to get involved with projects to do with the Cancer Centre. Although a few of my assessor had to leave through no fault of their own (family emergencies) Stepahead were able to provide me with a new assessor who was always contactable and if they weren’t they would give a name who could help. One woman in particular who has helped me, even now in my new career and is still offering me support and guidance is Kathy O’Callaghan. This lady was able to get my certificates to me after umpteen times trying to receive them, offering me support and guidance throughout my time as an apprentice and also once this was completed. For me, choosing to do an apprenticeship was one of my single best decisions yet! Without it, I wouldn’t be where I am today. In a trust which specialises in my career pathway, what more could I ask for!
D. C.
I working with Step-Ahead for long time by now ,
For me its great cause there is some flexibility in there
Step Ahead Stuff are always Pro's & Responsive
i am recommending them to everyone i know who looking for jobs opportunities
Cheers guys👏👏👏👏

Step Ahead is a boutique agency that takes great care and patience to match the requirement of the client and the needs of the job seeker. When there is a perfect fit, both parties are happy.
But often it is not possible to get an exact match when there are many competing systems and a skills shortage.
Trudi Hamer can patiently analyse the core competence required by the client and the core competence demonstrated by the candidate before drawing a short list of suitable candidates.
The client benefits because the chosen candidate adds value, in addition to problem-solving and the candidate also benefits from extending his/ her learning experience.
D. P.
Have had a great experience working with Step Ahead. In particular Mariam and Sahan who have both been fantastic and very hands on in helping me develop my career. Great communication and very helpful. Thank you both.

This company is on your side. Whether you are an inexperienced or professional individual - or perhaps someone returning to the workplace or seeking a part-time role; a small business with an immediate need; or a charity / public sector employer of choice (locally or nationally). Everyone is equally welcome and equally important: candidate, client and employee alike. I have been all three in my time and, in particular, always found the back office and payroll functions / people (Kristina and Senait) to be professional, effective and willing to go the extra mile (most especially in trying circumstances). A consistently strong and up front commitment to excellence in service delivery, is the foundation of the company's on-going success and day-to-day commitment to making everyone a winner.

I had an enriching experience with my Tutor Emily Bunu who was not only highly professional,but went out of her way even after the scheduled time was over,to help.I couldn't have asked for a more understanding Tutor than Emily as she was open to talking about personal things affecting the success of the work,and help change the situation.
