Control Systems Engineer

West
US Army,

I first attended college at ITT Technical Institute for Design Drafting and graduated with honors in 1995 with an AAS Degree. After completing this degree, I went to Averett University where I graduated with a BBA degree in 2006 (with honors again) Magna Cum Laude. I intend on continuing my education and maybe even starting a completely new degree. I am not sure if I want to finish my MBA or not. I was enrolled at George Washington University working on my Masters in Engineering Management, but I only took one class before moving to California.

I am an Aviation Maintenance Technician, CW3, Warrant Officer, in the U.S. Army Reserves. I am currently in the process of transferring to the California National Guard in the same position. I have been successfully employed in the past until my last position. Thankfully, I now have this great job at Mangan, Inc.

I learned of Orion International through the Internet and my friends’ success stories. I have to admit, they were right!! My recruiter was JP Sniffen, and he was wonderful. He kept in constant communication with me throughout the entire process and made numerous suggestions through some of his personnel in the San Diego office.

I was treated with great respect, and it seemed as though his team was definitely interested in finding me a job that I not only liked but paid fairly well. I couldn't have asked for a more professional service than I received through Orion. My experience was great.

It was a hiring conference in San Diego that led me to my current position. One of the employers there at the hiring conference was Mangan, Inc. They gave a nice presentation, and I was interested immediately. I interviewed with them first thing the next morning. They made me an offer about a week later

I am currently holding the position of Designer, even though there is technically more involved. I am doing other work such as Program Management and a few engineering tasks. It is definitely the type of job I was looking for. Mangan is a great company, and everyone here is excited to be here. We all look forward to working on a daily basis.
