Osborne Changing Lives – Jordan’s Story

When I first applied for the position that I hold today I was living in Drogheda, working in sales in a shop in the local town. The experience I gained from this position was great but while I was gaining invaluable experience it was to the detriment of my work life balance and physical health.

I heard from Osborne shortly after applying for my current position and was kept well informed during the entire interview process. I felt like the team at Osborne were exceptionally reassuring and helpful throughout the entire process.

I received word that I was successful in my application shortly after the interview process, news that I was truly delighted to hear. The job that I was applying for would give me the ability to move to an area closer to my friends and family allowing me to spend more time with them.

I am now living in an area where I am closer to my friends and family that, thanks to my new position, is financially feasible for me. Again, my working hours have also greatly increased the amount of time that I am able to spend with my loved ones. I have also been able to re-join the gym and spend more time enjoying my other hobbies.

The current position I hold has also been exceptionally beneficial regarding the new experience and knowledge that I am gaining, all of which I feel will help  grow my professional career. All in all, I am very thankful for the position that I hold and the opportunity that has been provided to me.
