Director of Executive Operations

Midwest
US Navy, O-4

I started working with Todd Phillips as my recruiter, and he was great! Todd and his team communicated with me frequently through the entire process. He found positions that I was interested and excited about and made my job of preparing for interviews and completing them very easy.

The biggest parallel between my new position and my time in the military is the importance of communication at all levels. Also, both require a high level of attention to detail and focus on mission/projects. Walking into my current position I believe 90% of the skills I gained from my military experience had a direct translation. I’m in the process of learning the other 10% now. I feel very comfortable that I will pick it up quickly because of how adaptable you learn to become in the Navy.

I can’t thank Orion enough for their assistance and support. The whole team worked so well together to ensure I understood the process and prepared me for success. Everyone at Orion is very positive and motivates you in a way that is constructive. I would recommend them to any service member transitioning.

Again, I thank Todd and his team at Orion for helping me transition. I feel very fortunate to be in my current position, and I owe much of that to Orion. Thank you again!
