I really enjoy working for DCC.

Working for DCC has given me the opportunity to complete my Fetac Level 5 healthcare assistant course. It also gives me the freedom to be their for my children. Because I have a permanent position for the last two years it has allowed me to transfer my son to the school where I work and because of this i don't have the worry of depending on anyone to bring my son to and from school.

Pros
