Sonia is a breath of fresh air within the recruitment industry. I have met many recruiters in my past who only care about placing the candidate into a role instead of the candidate’s best interest. The 3-day induction program was insightful, well-organised & engaging. The opportunity to speak with experienced individuals within the Offshore market gave me a fantastic insight into what to expect working abroad. I would recommend those who have been selected by Sonia to attend it could change your life… For the better.

Was a bit hesitant at first, but it turned out to be very good. The presenters are very beneficial to those who want an introduction to Wealth Management and the opportunities there are abroad

Invaluable insight into the world of IFA and realistic expectations for anyone considering entering this field

Sonia has a large amount of contacts all over the world and I would not hesitate in recommending the course for anyone wishing to pursue a role overseas.

This was my first experience with a civilian company whilst transitioning out of the military. WorldNet made it very clear what was expected, what would happen and the process I would be undertaking. They were very helpful with questions and put interesting speakers on who I’d like to work with in the future.

Worldnet has been great with its communication from the beginning all the way through. Very business orientated and I will definitely recommend.

It was a pleasure working with WorldNet Consultants. The training course they offer is very interesting, boasting speakers from various backgrounds. Once the course was over, Sonia immediately began to market me to her clients and it only took a few days before I received my first interview request.

I will surely be recommending WorldNet Consultants to individuals who intend to pursue a career in the financial advisory/wealth management field

It was a wonderful experience to meet successful people from abroad and to learn the obstacles that they have overcome.

The presentations were extremely well planned and also very well presented. The interaction with the audience was excellent and literature extremely useful. The course provided a great introduction to a new era for me in the financial sector.

Coming from a technical background in IT, I felt this course really gave me the foundations to start a new career and it’s definitely opened fresh doors.

I enjoyed the course, the information provided was insightful and carefully presented. All my questions were answered, and I understood what is required to succeed in my preferred role.

I would not hesitate to recommend Sonia & her team.

Coming from a different professional background, I had no experience of the financial industry but after doing the course I find it very exciting in terms of opportunities and progression.

I enjoyed learning about all the different subjects and listening to the presenters take/experience.

I enjoyed the presentations, the information I was provided with and the attention to detail. I got the feeling I was actually being taken care of and that I would have support from everyone

I was impressed with WorldNet Consultants Ltd from initial contact. Sonia runs an extremely professional organisation with excellent administrative support provided by the WorldNet team. The training course ran smoothly, had a comprehensive agenda and was extremely informative.

Sonia gave useful advice to all candidates throughout the course, complemented by the information provided by guest speakers. Using records held on each candidate, along with monitoring their interaction throughout the week, Sonia interviewed each individual, discussing with them her recommendations for future employment.

After a long career in the Armed Forces, serving in many locations across the globe and a subsequent career in Financial Services, I was looking for a recruitment company that could place me overseas with a brokerage that would offer me the chance to fully utilise my life experience!

Once I had completed the one-week recruitment course, Sonia was able to place me with exactly the right company in Latin America where after 3 months I was promoted into a senior director’s position – much sooner than I imagined! Sonia, and team, provide an excellent service and I have no hesitation in recommending them.

I had the pleasure of working with Sonia on my latest role. I found Sonia very professional and helpful. In very simple terms, she helped me to get the job I wanted and desired in a very efficient way.

I would highly recommend her to any professional looking for a new adventure

I want to thank everyone at WorldNet for helping me along my journey. WorldNet placed me in good, safe and caring hands; hands that will see me hone my skills and come into my own. I can honestly say that the team at WorldNet cares.

I was shown nothing but the kindness and warm hospitality. Whether it be long-distance communication or in-person, care and attention were paid to me.

The training period was eye-opening. Anyone who ever has the opportunity to work with WorldNet should definitely take it.

I want to, once again, from the core of my heart say, “Thank you” to everyone at WorldNet for facilitating a most wonderful change in my life.

I met Sonia very accidently when I was looking for a job and I must admit I was very, very doubtful in terms of opportunities she offered me. It seemed that it was too good to be true. I was very new to the industry, but she has opened my eyes to all aspects of this business and explained how it all works.

After her Training Course held at their offices, Sonia helped me secure my first job in Wealth Management and I am now living and working in Geneva, Switzerland as a Private Wealth Adviser. Within four months my life has changed 180 percent.

Sonia is the most trustworthy person you can imagine and she always keeps her promises, not only to find you a dream job, but also in assisting you at a later stage if you need it. Do not hesitate to deal with Sonia, trust her and let her change your life!

I wish all companies worked as well as WorldNet, with the great support from the team. Thank you once again and I wish you all the best!

WorldNet recruitment is a phenomenal agency. Their preparatory training is rigorous and very relevant. It sets you in the frame.

I worked closely with Sonia during my recent search and they were absolutely amazing. They were always there for me, always kept me in mind, and found the right fit for me – they clearly love what they do.

They listen carefully, communicate efficiently between each other and provide professional guidance in every way. Thank you guys!

‘My experiences with WorldNet have been very positive.

I forwarded my CV to WordNet at 8 o’clock one evening and received a call the next morning from them, to arrange an interview for the very next day!

From my first meeting with Sonia Middleditch, I was impressed by her professionalism, backed by extensive knowledge and experience. Her interpersonal skills are outstanding and you soon feel you are in a safe pair of hands. It wasn’t long before she evaluated my USPs and how they could be matched against her impressive range of worldwide contacts.

The training course was one of the best I’ve been on and, in my 35 years as a financial adviser, I’ve attended quite a few. There was a good balance of factual and motivational content with the opportunity to talk to the presenters, as well as the other attendees, either over lunch or during a tea break

I would not hesitate to recommend them.

‘I have known Sonia for several years now and she has kindly placed me in two separate offshore roles.

On each occasion she has listened intently to my thoughts and requirements and as a result, diligently placed me with the right organisation.

Sonia and her team make the whole process of joining an offshore company hassle and stress free.

I look forward to a long, fruitful and an ever professional relationship with Worldnet for many years to come’

Sonia has gone above and beyond in furthering my career in financial services.   Not only did she find a suitable position for myself but supported me throughout the entire process, providing advice, guidance and feedback.

The communication has been fantastic and very personal and I couldn’t recommend WorldNet highly enough

My experience with WorldNet has been exceptional.  Sonia Middleditch is a consummate professional who clearly commands respect internationally and possesses a network of extensive IFA-industry connections.  Additionally, she is a classy lady and extremely nice and empathetic person, which is not true of everyone who can boast of her background, abilities, and track record.  Her Assistant, Cat, was extremely well-organized, efficient, and also personally charming.

With respect to the course I recently attended, the hospitality afforded to the delegates was second-to-none.  The course content was five-star, with speakers and discussion leaders who were relevant, interesting, and professionally recognized in their respective fields.  I would have been pleased to attend the course as a conference, even had I not been pursuing IFA placement opportunities, due to the calibre of the experience and wealth of information imparted.

I have continued contact with fellow delegates and session speakers and am thankful for these connections.  Sonia’s follow-up since my recent completion of the course has also been excellent, and we have been exploring and progressing multiple, viable opportunities that could be a fit for me personally and professionally.  I am excited about launching this new chapter in my career and would highly recommend WorldNet to all considering an IFA placement abroad.

After spending 18 months or so talking with various offshore recruitment agents and offshore brokerages direct, I had become very concerned and despondent about the professionalism, ethics and lax attitudes. I was starting to think my dream of working offshore was going to remain exactly that. Then I found Worldnet Recruitment!

From the initial telephone contact through to interview and training course, Sonia put me completely at ease and I was more than impressed with her knowledge, experience and honesty.

The training course was very insightful and I gained a lot of knowledge on what to expect as, not only an offshore adviser but as an expat in general. The content and speakers were great and it was obvious a lot of thought and planning goes into these courses to ensure all candidates gain as much as possible.

I had already chosen a destination I wanted to work in and Sonia worked with me on this and, during the course, Sonia introduced me to the Director of a successful brokerage from that region who I felt confident I could work well with.

I am now very much looking forward to the move and feel that I have the right skills and knowledge to achieve my goals in a destination where I know I will be happy.

I cannot thank Sonia and Hayley enough for their support and would say, if you are thinking of making the move do not waste the time I did and just contact Worldnet Recruitment

WorldNet Training and Recruitment contacted me within one day of receiving my CV and invited me for interview within a week. After accepting me as a candidate they started working on my behalf to find me a suitable position in the country of my choice. I am now about to embark upon what I hope will be a very rewarding career in Finance in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil.

Throughout the process Sonia and Hayley were most helpful and informative and I can highly recommend WorldNet Training and Recruitment to other candidates looking for offshore positions. Thank you to you all at WorldNet.

WorldNet have opened my eyes to the opportunities that lie in the offshore arena. Their industry knowledge coupled with their extensive list of contacts has helped my transition into the offshore market and more importantly succeed.

For anyone thinking about a career offshore you will be best served by WorldNet. WorldNet, I will be forever grateful for your help and assistance.

I met Sonia, following an awful experience in my first offshore position, where the broker that I had joined were one of the bad apples, and had returned to the UK, looking for the right opportunity for me. Sonia quickly put me at ease and through the excellent professional manner in which she worked, she has used her vast experience in matching the candidate with the broker that she felt would be right for them.

I definitely feel that Sonia has all the credentials to be able to identify with her candidate, and to know instinctively where the candidate would be best suited, and I feel that without her help, her vast contacts and her know how, I would still be worrying about my next move, but through attending the course with WorldNet, I feel that I am in the right place to really make a mark in the world of offshore financial services!

For that, I would like to thank Sonia and Lauren, and would recommend anyone in a similar position, to utilise this great service!

I felt the course was well structured from the text book outset to the realms of field realism at the close. Each presenter showed a strong knowledge in each field of their willingness to explain further over lunch and dinner was beyond their call of duty which was very refreshing.

Sonia and Lauren hosted the course in a true diplomatic style with personal touches that made the course shine. Each of our group gelled the day before the course started and today we keep in touch thanks to Sonia who showed such personal diligence from the first step.

To summarize, very proud to be on the course where, standards, contents, subject were highly commendable. Thank you Sonia and Lauren.

Dear Sonia,
I would like to thank you and Olena for your professional organisation and attitude during the Offshore Financial Training course I participated to with 7 others on 5th December 2005.

Apart from enjoying very much the company of the other participants, the beautiful area, the excellent accommodation in Aldeburgh and the good food in classic local pubs, I learnt a lot on the approach to the Offshore financing thanks to the high quality of the trainers and the companies they represent. Their presentations were clear, easy to grasp and highly professional.
In my opinion, this one-week course is ideal even to a newcomer in the industry (which I am), as it provides the necessary basics to be able to start selling the various offshore investment and pension plans products available to the expatriates all over the world. I also appreciated the feedback from various players of the industry such as people who have been involved in the sales for many years and who are enjoying the financial rewards it has given them. The last day with Richard Parramint, a professional coach, helped me understand a lot about myself and the attitude to demonstrate when faced with potential clients.
In a nutshell, the whole course is well worth the money invested and I now cannot wait to reap off the financial and lifestyle rewards this opportunity is going to give me.

I wish to thank you again for giving me this lifetime opportunity of being able to achieve my most ambitious dreams and for the quick placement you helped me to find in Kuwait with a professional and serious brokerage who is providing me with exactly everything which was mentioned i.e. flights, accommodation and visa assistance. As far as I am concerned, you have fulfilled every promise you made during our first meeting and I can only praise the services of WorldNet Recruitment & Training. I shall keep you informed about how I am setting up in Kuwait.

After many years of seeking an appropriate Overseas Brokerage I came across WorldNet’s Recruitment Campaign via the International papers and enquired as to how they could assist in seeking a reputable Advisory firm which would meet my requirements of support and backing. I was delighted to meet the Staff at WorldNet who were ever so helpful and promptly guided me through a selection process and placed me on a week’s residential course in Framlingham.

The course content was extremely rewarding in many ways. Having already tripped out as an International Advisor for several years, I presumed that I knew everything until after the course, where I was so pleased with attending, as I gained more knowledge, friends and useful but all important do’s and don’ts.

This has all helped me out here to no end and am eternally thankful to WorldNet. I have now successfully been placed with a reputable and expanding firm in United Arab Emirates and am pleased to say have been writing sizeable business, more than I have ever done before. I have gained a lot of respect from my new clients, from all corners of the earth, from the information I deliver to them and the service I give.

Again, thanks to Sonia, Olena and the training team at WorldNet. In parting, I would say to anyone simply ‘thinking’ of going abroad to ‘Just Do It’ and reap the rewards, fun and a better life style the International Life has to offer. Good Luck!!

It is with great pleasure that I give this Testimonial: I would like to thank WorldNet Recruitment & Training for giving me the opportunity to expand to my full potential in this industry. I came offshore at a time that the UK Financial Services Industry was in turmoil. They were able to place me with a first class organisation.

This was achieved by selective recruitment based on various factors that WorldNet Recruitment & Training were able to spot during their training course.

I am now currently in my sixth year offshore. I was promoted to Sales Director for the largest Asian Offshore Brokers last year and enjoying every minute.
