Senior Manager, Customer Operations

South Central
US Navy, O-3

I feel blessed that my Orion experience was a career success story for both me and my family. After separating from the Navy, where I was a helicopter pilot and Admiral’s Aide, in 2003, I worked with a large computer company. The same month that I left that company, Orion had already connected me with my new employer, St. Jude Medical.

Jim Perdue, the Orion account executive for St. Jude Medical, treated me terrifically and exceeded my expectation every step of the way. Jim was always my advocate and did an outstanding job relating my previous job experience to what I could at St. Jude Medical. He was timely, accurate, professional, and, most importantly, he was successful at closing the deal.

He got me a 20% salary increase over my previous job! Jim gets my vote for Orion employee of the year. Jim and Orion met my needs every time, on time, without an excuse.
