Engineering Specialist

West
US Marine Corps, E-5

I spent five years in the Marine Corps reaching the rank of (E-5) sergeant as an aircraft electronics technician. I started my search for a new career about a year before I got out, which was about mid 2006. Not until my brother, who was also getting out of the military, introduced me to Orion International did I have any success in finding a good career that I wanted.

I got with Jim Lewis from Orion in September of 2007 and really felt that he wanted to help. Even though I had very strict location requirements in an area with little opportunity at the time, he stuck with me to the end. Due to the location, it was difficult to find the exact career I wanted, but Jim was able to find one such company. One interview was all it took.

I am currently an Engineering Specialist for ATS Inland Northwest located in Billings, Montana, the exact state and city I wanted. I was looking for a great career path and found it with ATS. I knew Orion would connect me with a career, not just another job, and, with Jim’s help, Orion did so. Jim and Orion did a great job. I recommend anyone transitioning out of the military that wants a great career rather than just another job to give Orion a call. Thank you to Jim and Orion.
