Transition

assistance for veterans, service members, their spouses, & caregivers
Engagement

Engagement is the act of creating meaningful introductions for intentional career planning and workforce development. Engagement serves as a basic introduction to a new way of thinking: not only about the next phase of their career but also being receptive to new opportunities.

education

Education involves the sharing of information through instructional and training opportunities. Education takes place as you begin the necessary steps to learn how to market yourself away from the military, off of the battlefield, and entering a civilian environment.

placement

Placement leads to a fulfilling and meaningful next career that provides economic and family stability. Warriors Ethos dedicates our time to personally assist in pairing you with professions based on your unique set of skills and abilities, knowledge, and career passions.

what we do

Transition is a process. It's a different and personal experience, for each and every veteran, service member, their family, and caregivers.

An effective transition experience for service members, veterans, their spouses & caregivers, requires a commitment on behalf of the service member and the business community. It is this common commitment – one of EngagementEducation and Placement, or EEP – that is key to the success of Warriors Ethos. Both parties agree to acquire an understanding of the needs and expectations of the other. The civilian business community offers service members the opportunity to try multiple real-world experiences in order to gain a better understanding of how their military skills translate to “corporate America”.

Service members have the opportunity to engage in civilian business cultural (up close and personal), learn how to market themselves in an interview, and develop a professional civilian network. The ultimate goal of Warriors Ethos is to ensure that every service member participating in our program achieves a successful job placement – one that leads to the next phase of a very successful civilian career.

As I began my transition out of the Army, it quickly became one of the scariest challenges I have ever faced. I didn’t know what my future entailed, but I knew I had to provide for my family. Warriors Ethos introduced me to a Sponsor Company called Intelligent Waves, I met several volunteers through the SOCOM Care Coalition where I was able to find a mentorship opportunity there that I truly enjoyed. Warriors Ethos facilitated a great opportunity to attend a 6 week NetApp NCIE course continuing my education helping me obtain a job in my desired career field. After 9 months of interning Intelligent Waves hired me, who said working for free wouldn’t pay off? I received the same coaching, counseling and mentorship through Warriors Ethos, it felt like I never left the service. I would wholeheartedly recommend Warriors Ethos to any Wounded Warrior. Thanks Warrior Ethos!

SFC Antonio A. Turner (Ret) United States Army

As a 23 year Army veteran with a Special Operations background, I had a very specific skill set while in the military. However, a dismounted IED blast in August 2010 changed everything by severely limiting my physical ability on which my skills depended. In my particular case, my concern wasn’t finding a job after the military, it was finding a career that I would want to do for the rest of my life. Warriors Ethos assisted me by being the vehicle through which I could explore the career options open to me, and choose a career path that I wanted, and not one I had to settle for. In my case, Warrior Ethos brought me into a corporate environment, and provided extensive and unfettered access to all the corporate executives. Through detailed exposure to all levels of the company, I was able to better understand the financial, operations, human relations, and management roles of the company. The CEO freely shared his experience and his lessons learned as an entrepreneur and business owner. As a result of this exposure, I was able to make an educated and informed decision regarding my career goals. Through the help and assistance of Warriors Ethos, I look forward to owning my own company, and building upon the skills I learned in the Army and the experience I gained in the Warriors Ethos Corporate Mentorship Program.

David Smith MSG USA (Ret.)

Trying to figure out what was next for me was one of the toughest parts of my rehabilitation. Working with doctors and physical therapists to get me up on prosthetic legs was easy, but knowing what I was going to do for a job was the tough part. One moment I'm a special forces officer the next not only do I not have any legs but I have no idea what I am going to do for an occupation to provide for my family. Warriors Ethos provided me the opportunity to intern at a local law firm because I thought I was interested in attending law school. When I realized that getting a law degree was not for me, Warriors Ethos values allowed me to look elsewhere in the business world. Currently Warriors Ethos has provided me another opportunity to work with a Military Contractor in order for me to gain an understanding and allow me to choose a job that I actually want to do once again.

After 17+ years with my employer, I faced an unexpected workforce reduction and found myself unsure of my next steps. My very first call was to Warriors Ethos, and from that moment, their unwavering support made all the difference. Led by John, Angela, and Ashley, the team immediately set up a call to guide me through the transition. Their commitment to serving veterans is truly second to none. They provided invaluable resources, assisting me with resume writing, LinkedIn optimization, job searches, and mentoring. More than that, they equipped me with the confidence to navigate interviews and successfully position myself for new opportunities. I am beyond grateful for Warriors Ethos and their dedication to helping veterans succeed. They stepped up when I needed them most, surrounding me with the tools and encouragement necessary to move forward in my career. Thank you for all that you have done, all that you are doing, and all that you will continue to do!

John and I are extremely fortunate to be able experience the many unique opportunities that Warriors Ethos provides. We were elated with the amount of support, care, and assistance we received through this process. Preparing for transition is no easy task, but Warriors Ethos eases the burden by helping to figure out the unknown, providing direction and ensuring a path to success. We cannot express how meaningful this experience was for us and our family. The care and attentiveness we received from the moment we started the program was simply amazing. The support received from Warriors Ethos exceeded all expectations and any level of assistance we could have imagined. We, Team King, are so grateful for those who work for, partner with and give back to Warriors Ethos, as it has truly been instrumental in both of our transitions and our lives.
