I never fully thanked Cheeky for all the help they gave me in the training in the job search process, in a way that I was able to realize succes on one of the first jobs I applied for, only a bit more than a couple of months after joining the association. I heard and was told it was possible to have such quick results,but I never believed that it would happen to me; for this I am deeply grateful for you all!

Meera specially helped me a lot prepare for the 8 interviews (written, analytical, on-site, assessments).

This is something I was looking for in a job so it is perfect for me."
