Review for The Honor Foundation, San Diego, CA, USA
As I was approaching my transition I had absolutely no idea what I wanted to do after my service was over. Success was defined as me having any job that let me keep my current standard of living. My initial plan was to take part in the required transition courses offered by the Army and apply for jobs that matched my experience in the Army. That was the literal extent of my transition based knowledge.
Thankfully I was introduced to The Honor Foundation early on in my process so I was able to take part in one of their cohorts. They extensively covered every conceivable aspect of a transition with their 3 months worth of classes. This included helping me discover what I really wanted out of my transition instead of just finding a job to fill the income gap. To this end they also taught us how to tell our stories in a captivating way without heavy use of military jargon so that we could communicate what value we brought to the table.
I am still in my transition, but now I am more confident that I will be successful in finding a position that better suits my, and my family's, needs. I owe this confidence to the teachings and guidance provided by the staff and coaches at The Honor Foundation.
