Martin Ó Donnchadha
Since my initial contact with Kenny Whelan, I received a lot of assistance with kick starting my career. Since then I have found my dream job working in Eindhoven, the Netherlands as a Mechanical Design Engineer. I am very grateful to them as it feels as though working all those late nights in the library studying for my Masters in Mechanical Engineering, have now paid off. I am very grateful for my company Neitraco Cematec, which have placed me on project work within ASML, designing the next generation of Lithography machines. So far I have garnered a lot of training and experience which will stand to me greatly as I further my career as a Mechanical Engineer.

I had the pleasure of being put in contact with Carmel after finishing my college degree in engineering. In the initial conversation Carmel understood the type of job and career path that I wished to undertake and was instrumental in me obtaining a job in mechanical design engineering. Carmel with her interview techniques, CV tips and time investment was extremely helpful in me obtaining by current position. To anyone I could not highly recommend Carmel enough.
