The hospitality as well as the industry and career change knowledge is wonderful.

I thought they were excellent agents. When I was changing jobs, I compared with other companies, but I had the impression that they made proposals based on their understanding of my intentions and the atmosphere of the company.
They provided detailed support for any problems I had in my job search, and I think they handled the sales pitch to my new employer very well. I was very satisfied.

We received reliable support with in-depth knowledge of the industry.

Perhaps because Turnpoint specializes in the mobility industry, they were able to respond quickly to questions about recent industry trends and slightly more in-depth questions, and were able to provide targeted answers, which made them very reliable compared to other agents.
