Installation Supervisor

West
US Air Force, O-3

After leaving the Air Force as a Captain in September 2005, I worked in the homebuilding industry for a couple of years. However, I began searching for a new career in December 2008 after continual Reductions in Force in that industry. It was actually Orion International that placed me in the homebuilding industry in 2006, so when I decided to begin a new job search, I contacted them once again. Since I had a successful placement back then, I called JP Sniffen and decided to make use of Orion again.

JP referred me to DJ Holder and David Coe. Everybody at Orion treated me well and was diligent in matching up my background and desires with the companies and positions that were the best fit. While I did attend a hiring conference, it turned out that best fit for me was an out-of-conference opportunity in the elevator industry, which involved a phone screen and interviews at a branch location.

Back in 2006 during my original job search, I worked with multiple recruiting agencies. Most others would try to fit a square peg into a round hole and force it to fit. Orion was more concerned with making suitable matches, with consideration of the candidate's background, strengths, and interests. I strongly and heartily recommend Orion to anybody serious about establishing a new civilian career.
