One of our writers recently had the pleasure of working with a 30-year veteran and senior officer who had these comments about our process in a recent survey. One of the things about the Colonels’ comments is that you can see how he truly appreciates the level of understanding that’s necessary to help a veteran adjust into a civlian career, especially at a high level.
“I couldn’t think of a single thing to say to help improve the process. Erika did a wonderful job, and knew exactly what to ask me. She spent over two hours with me on the phone one evening, dragging out what I really wanted to do as my next career. She found qualifications and experiences I had long forgotten I had. I couldn’t work quickly enough to keep up with her. Simply great. Thanks most of all for everyone making me feel they had a genuine interest in my future.”
“After serving in the military for nearly 30 years, I was confident that I knew everything about the military. I was equally confident that I didn’t know anything about transitioning to the civilian world or the Senior Executive Service. I was welcomed into the whole process by a group of dedicated professionals, who showed genuine interest in my transition. They worked quickly and effectively, and I had the products I needed in no time. They took the time to get to know me, and brought out experiences and qualifications I had long forgotten I had. Now, if they could only help me pick out some clothes, I’d be all set.”
- D.P., Colonel, US Army
