 “I was moving out of my flat and my landlord was threatening legal action over the deposit. They insisted I had signed a two year contract and so had to continue paying rent even after I had moved out. Connect360 helped me understand my rights, wrote a letter on my behalf and guided me through the process. I avoided a costly dispute and moved on peacefully.”

 “I’m a qualified accountant from overseas. I spent nine months applying for jobs in the UK with no success. Connect360 reviewed my CV, coached me for interviews and linked me to the right networks. Today I’m employed in the finance department of a local NHS Trust.”
