Brian and I have been working together at Bradley-Morris ever since I started, and I was glad he was able to be the first Air Force officer we've had on the podcast. Brian came from the Air Force's ICBM program and transitioned from a role in training and leadership to working with officers as a recruiter at Bradley-Morris, providing full service recruiting and career transition consulting.

Today's episode touches on the value of confidence and personality in the interview process, and how those factors can be rehearsed and honed to help veterans who are usually great communicators learn this new type of communications discipline that is speaking to civilian hiring managers during the interview.

We also hear a great example of where Brian made a critical mistake during an early interview by asking the wrong questions, but how that mistake set him up to provide guidance and mentorship to hundreds of fellow officers once he eventually found his role here at BMI.
