The United States Military educates and trains the most dynamic leaders in the world and, therefore, provides a highly talented virtually un-tapped resource pool for corporations.  As military officers transition to the civilian workforce, they bring with them years of leadership experience, a 24/7 work ethic, and a strong desire to succeed. The majority of these officers have Bachelor and or Master degrees in Engineering, Operations Management, Computer Systems, Finance, and Business.

Skilled in project management, communications, training and decision making, military officers provide a multi-level skill set that can be successful in almost any position and industry. From a cost reduction perspective, the relocation of Officers leaving the military is paid by the government. This, together with the available Federal Tax Credit, makes hiring military officers a very cost effective decision.
