Joani and Hadleigh are simply the best. Very loving, caring and patient. Not only did they help me get a perfect role, they always make sure that I am okay and happy with my work. They have my general wellbeing at heart, and my happiness is a top priority to them. Engage Education does it better than all. Best of the best.

I have been working with Engaged Education for some years now, Grace Lampard has been my consultant for two years. Grace make my employment/ career journey enjoyable. Grace is reliable and quick to action any questions regarding my employment or job.I find working with Engaged Education enjoyable
Daniel C.
I have been with Engage for a short while, and they are absolutely incredible. In particular, Elisha and Katie. Professional, supportive and informative, Elisha and Katie have made the transition for me seemless and I feel in very safe hands with them both. If I have ever had any questions, they have been on hand to answer, regardless of how busy either may be.I am a teacher who became disillusioned with the profession, and close to doing something else entirely, until I crossed paths with Engage. They have taken my personal skill set, and consistently applied it to the positions that would suit both me and the setting.I feel very fortunate to have found Engage, and been placed in the realm of both Elisha and Katie. Thank you both. If I could have posted greater than 5 stars, I would have.Outstanding.
Irena T.
I would like to recommend Engage and in particular Katie as a very friendly and professional consultant to work with.I would like to appreciate Bridget as well,since they both tried their best to provide me with different options in my living area.Thank you so much,ladies and best wishes for the future.
