Success story from Mark, Master Chief Petty Officer (E-9) Coast Guard

Real email, in their words.

I retired from the USCG earlier this year, and spending a good chunk of time looking for corporate gigs, I realized I knew what I wanted- to go back and work for the service that gave me so much. I utilized the BMR resume tool for federal positions after finding a role that was perfect for me; the resume was fantastic, got the interview, nailed the interview, and officially start onboarding today.

Mark’s transition

Mark retired from the Coast Guard as a Master Chief Petty Officer (E-9) earlier this year.

He spent a good chunk of time looking at corporate jobs first. Along the way he realized what he really wanted: to go back and work for the service that gave him so much.

When he found a federal role that was a perfect fit, he used Best Military Resume to build his resume for federal positions. In his words, the resume was fantastic. He got the interview, nailed the interview, and officially started onboarding the day he wrote to us.

He called BMR "such a powerful and intuitive tool." Welcome back to the service, Mark.

Mark built a resume that got results. Same tools. Free to start. About 15 minutes.
