Success Statements

Wisconsin, August 2022
“The biggest challenge I faced in looking for a job after leaving the military was finding somewhere I felt like I fit in and could grow at professionally. It was hard coming from military back to a civilian lifestyle. I grew accustomed to being around Veterans, and finding somewhere to work where it felt like I fit in was tough. OJRV assisted me with resume development and revision, networking, and job search assistance. I attended an all-women’s Veteran event at BenShot that OJRV helped sponsor, and Ryan connected me with the owner. I was able to schedule an interview and get a job offer after searching for over a year. It has been a struggle to find full-time employment and something that I loved doing. It took over a year, and I am very thankful for this job in business support as a social media manager. Having the support of OJRV has been an amazing experience.”
