“I am constantly impressed by the friendliness of all of my colleagues within Connells, from the regional Survey & Valuation Surveyors through to my Line Manager, but also those in other departments.  I am also impressed by the overall ethos and approach adopted by the company, which places  high importance on the quality of our valuations and reports, but is balanced by a fairly relaxed top-down attitude, which relies on the professionalism of its people.” - MRICS St Helens

“I have found the transition from trainee to qualified AssocRICS surveyor to be very smooth with the aid of my Area Director and the management team. That’s not to say it has been easy, there is still a lot to learn post qualification and, as I was told, ‘that’s when the real work starts. This shift in career direction has been the right decision, and I’m enjoying every day.” - AssocRICS Bedfordshire
