DISTINGUISHED CANDIDATE
MILITARY HIRING CONFERENCE
Monday, March 5 - Tuesday, March 6, 2012
Dallas, TX
Are you preparing to exit the military and begin a civilian career? Do you think that your education, background, and military career distinguish you from your peers?
If so, you may be a candidate for Orion’s National Distinguished Candidate Conference (DCC), which will be held March 5 - March 6 in Dallas, TX.
There will be positions available nationwide, with a focus on Engineering, Sales, Leadership Development, and Operations Management.
Orion carefully selects candidates for our DCC that exemplify the best Orion has to offer our client companies. We work hard to assemble a select group of the top JMOs from around the country.
Our distinguished candidates include:
Graduates of Military Service Academies or Top Universities with a minimum GPA of 3.0;
Those with a masters degree or other advanced education; and
Those that have consistently ranked above their peers in Officer Evaluations.
There will be 35 – 40 companies interviewing candidates for positions in Operations, Medical and Technical Sales, Consulting, Engineering, Project Management, Program Management, and Logistics.
In 2011, more than 100 Military Officers found their civilian careers through our Distinguished Candidate Conference, with companies including Alcoa, Bank of America, Boston Scientific, Bridgestone Firestone, Corning Cable, Dell, Frito-Lay, GE Aviation, Hershey’s, Hitachi Medical, Honeywell, Lexmark, Nalco, PepsiCo, Safeway, Samsung, Siemens, WE Energies, and many others.
There is no better opportunity to interview with Orion’s top clients than our Distinguished Candidate Conference. Don’t just take our word for it though, check out what several of the transitioning Officers who found their careers from a DCC last year had to say:
"Without the May Distinguished Candidate Conference, I am certain I would have been searching for a job longer than I did. I only wish I had found Orion sooner. The DCC was organized, efficient, and my time there was maximally leveraged. I had eight interviews - I couldn't really ask for much more out of one day. Working with Orion and attending a DCC was a great experience. I would definitely recommend it to my peers."
"While attending the Distinguished Candidate Conference, I learned how to translate my strengths from the military into strengths in the civilian world. I had six great interviews with six companies I genuinely would have enjoyed working for. Of those six, I got four onsite interviews and two job offers to choose from. Orion did a fabulous job setting me up for success."
"The October Dallas Distinguished Candidate Conference was a very rewarding experience. It not only allowed me to find my current job but gave me a lot of experience with the interview process and an idea as to what companies outside of the military are looking for."
"The Orion DCC I attended was a very professional and well-organized event. All of the companies that conducted interviews were genuinely interested in the candidates, and it was great to network with other professionals. I was limited by location, so I only had two interviews; however, that was all it took, because I was hired by one of these companies and back at work in less than a month after the conference concluded."
