Pascal Jolivet is a Montrealer born and raised. He grew up in the city for eighty percent of his life and continues to call it home. As a child, Pascal did not love school but dreamed of becoming a firefighter or a policeman. Instead, Pascal joined the world of restaurants and bars and worked successfully in the industry for over twenty years. He progressed to being a manager and enjoyed satisfying customers and motivating the staff teams.

Pascal met Jessie a year ago through mutual friends. Last April, he lost his job after two years of loyal service. Pascal posted a Facebook post explaining his desire for a new job. Once Jessie saw what he wrote, she immediately contacted Pascal to discuss his interest in a work opportunity with K+S Services. After two interviews, Pascal got the job and is now a logistics agent at the company. As a logistics agent, he receives various equipment parts and sends repairs to different workshops.

Pascal appreciated Défis RH’s caring and human approach to the recruitment process. “It was a great experience from start to finish. Défis RH was very professional to maximize success, with a human approach considering the different spheres of a candidate’s needs”, recalls Pascal. Working with Défis RH was the first time he worked with a recruitment company, and he found that support from Jessie and her team gave him a significant advantage in his job search.

Pascal explains that Defis RH’s conscientious approach made a difference because they understand the complex process of finding work. Jessie guided Pascal through all areas of the recruitment process and helped him regain the confidence to succeed in interviews. Pascal says, “They put the right person in the right place. I don’t feel like I’m just a number or an opportunity for the company to receive its due. The fact that they have been in business for a long time demonstrates their success in finding the best candidates. I highly recommend doing it”. If you or someone you know needs help making a career change, please contact Défis RH to find out how they can help.
