US Air Force,

I heard about Orion International through two friends who were attending their June 2008 San Diego hiring conference. I decided to work with Orion, as well, and JP Sniffen became my recruiter. He was very professional throughout the entire process and attentive to my specific job objective. He helped ease my anxiety on many occasions by talking me through various scenarios I would encounter in my final interviews. JP worked very hard on my behalf to help me acquire the exact position I was looking for and the salary I felt I deserved.

I participated in a pre-conference webinar one week prior to the actual conference and was briefed on interviewing etiquette and the companies attending the hiring conference. I attended both days of the hiring conference. The first day JP introduced his staff and explained the entire process and outlined interviewing protocols. I attended seven company briefings to learn more about the company's cultures and positions available.

The second day I interviewed with four companies and was selected for follow-up interviews with three companies. I went to DaVita's headquarters for my follow-up interview with DaVita's VP of their Practice Strategy Group. I then had one final telephone interview with another VP in their Practice Strategy Group (my future boss). The following day, I was offered the job! I took the position with DaVita, which was the perfect fit for me.

I will be a Consultant in DaVita's Practice Strategy Group. This position was not posted at the conference, but DaVita's recruiters liked me enough to seek out the exact position for me within their company. DaVita's recruiters knew the exact job I was searching only because Orion informed them of my ideal position prior to my interview!

Honestly, Orion made the entire hiring process very easy for me! I would highly recommend Orion to anyone seeking a smooth transition from the military. JP’s entire team was extremely professional and very attentive to my job/salary requirements. I feel very fortunate to have had the opportunity to participate in such a rewarding event and meet great people who helped make the hiring process very simple and quick.
