Hennie's inspiring journey: An Alert recruitment success story

The path to meaningful work

Hi, I’m Hennie. Today, I work as a Receptionist at a leading Oil and Gas Company.
For me, this role is more than just daily tasks. It’s about making a real impact, learning every day and finding purpose in what I do.

I enjoy taking on new challenges. They help me grow both professionally and personally. In a world that changes quickly, I believe the ability to learn and adapt makes all the difference.

From IT to Oil & Gas: A journey of adaptability

Before working in oil and gas, I had a job in the IT industry. I was a Receptionist and Admin Assistant.
That experience taught me how to stay flexible and handle many different responsibilities.

As a result, I became more confident and open to change. It also helped me adjust easily when I moved into a new industry. These skills continue to support me in my current role.

The spark with Alert

My Alert Recruitment Success Story started with a phone call in 2024. Ms. Marie contacted me for an interview and from the very beginning, I felt something special.

Right away, I noticed how kind and professional the Alert team was. More importantly, they took a real interest in my career goals. That first call made me feel seen, supported, and hopeful.

The Alert difference: Support beyond expectations

What made the biggest difference for me was the way Alert guided me through the entire process.
They didn’t just schedule interviews, they prepared me for each one.

In addition, they stayed in touch regularly and answered all my questions. Because of that, I felt calm, informed and ready. I knew I could trust them every step of the way.

A valued partnership

Throughout my journey, I never felt like I was just a number.
The Alert team made sure I understood every part of the recruitment process. They explained things clearly and listened to my concerns.

As a result, I felt valued and respected. They treated me not just as a candidate, but as a person with goals, feelings and potential.

A future of professional fulfillment with Alert

Their support gave me confidence and helped me believe in myself again.

I especially want to thank Ms. Marie for her kindness and trust. Her guidance made a real difference in my life.

To me, this is more than just a job story, it’s a success story. It’s proof that with the right support, you can find the right opportunity and grow into your best self.
