Looking For a New Job?

Tomorrow night (so this is your last chance) I will be hosting a webinar with Bobby Payne, Senior Vice President for Veteran Strategy at Shift Group. He is a retired Air Force Master Sergeant and a super stellar dude (he’s a drummer in a rock band).

When is it? Mar 26, 2025 07:00 PM EST

What is the webinar about? Bobby was recently on the podcast (listen here) and I also wanted to give you all the chance to speak with him directly and ask any questions you might have.

What do they do? Shift Group is a recruitment firm. But they have a VERY different strategy and take than your average military hiring company.

First, they take you through a self-guided course. If you really focus, you can knock it out in three days. In that course, they help you answer a few questions:

• What are your personal values?

• What do you like to do?

• What are you good at?

• What type of work do you want to do?

• What type of company do you want to work for?

After you complete the training module, you get paired with a coach who can work with you to help you find the best company to work for and help you get hired.

What are their results? Simply speaking, the numbers speak for themselves.

• 2000+ Athletes and Veterans placed

• 400+ Hiring Partners

• <5% attrition (industry average is 35%)

• 9 months average time to promotion (2x faster than average)

They have quite simply figured it out. Shift knows how to place people in new roles where they thrive and the company is happy. That’s also why their program is free for veterans. They do the work with you up front and everyone has a better result on the back side.

P.S. I recently posted about my partnership with Shift on LinkedIn and a classmate of mine from business school reached out. He is an investor at a Venture Capital firm and they actually invested in Shift. They do not normally invest in companies that recruit like this, but they were so impressed with the founder and the team at Shift that they felt they just had to. That’s how good they are.
