Eric's Story

Eric spent his Marine Corps service building the kind of discipline and attention to detail that most people only read about. After separating, he carried that into a career in security operations and law enforcement. Over the years he worked his way through roles at the TSA, the Metropolitan Washington Airports Authority Police Department, and the U.S. Food and Drug Administration.

But Eric wanted to keep moving up. He had his eye on a security leadership position and knew his experience was more than enough to get there. The challenge was making sure his resume and online presence reflected what he could actually do.

He turned to Best Military Resume. He used the resume builder to create a resume that translated his military and federal experience into language that resonated with hiring managers in the private sector. Then he used the LinkedIn optimization tool, which boosted visibility on his profile and started driving more views and engagement.

In September 2025, Eric applied for the role he wanted. By February 2026, he was hired.

Eric earned his Project Management and Lean Six Sigma Black Belt credentials along the way. He stacked certifications on top of real experience. And when it was time to make a move, he had the tools to make sure the right people saw what he brought to the table.
