Staff Engineer
Midwest
US Army, O-2
Orion set me up for success with companies looking for my specific leadership abilities and engineering skills. Personally, I would highly recommend a hiring conference; all of the hard work and preparation definitely paid off in the end. I interviewed with seven companies and four of them wanted to schedule follow-ups within three days. For the first time I felt like companies were begging me to work for them, instead of me begging them.
Orion gave me the right tools and ability to secure a position with Firestone making 10% more than what I was asking for. I wish I had heard about Orion two years earlier instead of trying to trek through the hiring world on my own. Then I could have been hired in 2009 instead of 2011. It is a great feeling knowing that I am starting a new career with excellent potential to grow and to be able to support my family and give them the life they deserve.
