US Marine Corps, O-2

I am currently due to separate from the Marine Corps in June 2009 as a Captain with 13 years in the military. I began my job search about six months ago but only started talking to Orion in February. My recruiters are Todd Phillips and Matt Owens, and they both treat me with the utmost respect and courtesy. They listen to my needs and are realistic with me about what to expect.

So far, I have been to one Orion hiring conference with five interviews and a mini-conference with one interview. Of those, I have pending second interviews with three companies. I could not have asked for better preparation at the hiring conference. The interviewing workshop was really above and beyond what I expected. For somebody that has never interviewed beyond an hourly position, the practice sessions were key to my success.

A few companies have contacted me with a sales pitch email, however the extent of their email is ‘Go to the website, and apply for the jobs you are interested in’. They then say that they will contact you if there is a match. Orion's process is thorough and keeps the needs of the individual in mind. I would recommend Orion to any of my peers.
