Farm Service Center Leader

Midwest
US Army, E-5

I separated from the US Navy in 1998 and currently serve as a weekend warrior in the Kansas Army National Guard as a Supply Sergeant. I found Orion International in October 2010 after being separated from my full time National Guard duties. From day one, Todd Phillips, my Orion recruiter, was determined to effectively assist me in my career search. He displayed priceless care and consistency in providing me with the proper resources and tools to achieve nothing but positive results when interviewing.

During the hiring conference I attended, I interviewed with four different potential employers, with Cargill being my top choice. It was not long after the conference that I was called for a second and then third interview. Amazingly, I was offered a position as a Farm Service Center Leader for the AgHorizon division in the same city and state in which I resided. There was no doubt that this company was a great match for me. I am able to bring leadership, respect, honor, and integrity along with a background in Human Resources and Training to the table and for this position.

I feel Orion is a great company to have working for any veteran or service member as they transition from military to the civilian sector. They stuck with me from reviewing my resume until after I was placed in my current position with Cargill. Thank you for marketing my skills, education, and experience to obtain a position in which I will have the pleasure of gaining pertinent and invaluable training and experience.  I will recommend Orion to all my military companions that are looking to have a smooth transition into the civilian career market.
