Military to Civilian Placement Firm Bradley-Morris Featured in The Virginian-Pilot

Atlanta, GA (PRWEB) July 13, 2008 -- Bradley-Morris, Inc. (BMI), the largest military to civilian placement firm in the U.S., was recently featured in an article in The Virginian-Pilot, a newspaper serving the Norfolk and Hampton Roads areas of Virginia (click here for full article (http://hamptonroads.com/2008/06/service-members-are-demand-private-sector)). The piece is entitled "Service members are in demand in the private sector" and highlights the free job seeker services that exist for transitioning and prior-military.

BMI's Principal and VP of Client Services, Tim Best, was interviewed for the article. When asked to describe the key attributes that civilian employers find in military-experienced candidates, Best said, "They have a mission-accomplishment approach. It's not uncommon for them to spend a day of nonstop work, and very little rest, because they have to get a job done. They have the mentality, 'I don't have to have dinner right now; I need to finish this.'"

One of Bradley-Morris' Norfolk-area clients was also featured in the piece. Describing their interaction with BMI, Melissa Griffin, human resources manager at Electric Motor & Contracting Co., Inc. discussed signing up with the military to civilian firm after Electric Motor's positions became harder to fill, saying: "I gave them the job description, not expecting a whole lot back. Within two days, they sent me a resume. The very first resume, we hired that person."

She went on to describe how working with BMI has made a positive impact for her company, and made her life easier as well, declaring, "I tell them what I need; they do all of the legwork. That's been a huge plus."

Your Resume Education Section: Top or Bottom?
If you are in school, just graduated, or have been out of school for less than three years, your education information should be at the top. After three years, it needs to go on the bottom.

If for some reason in the three plus years you have been out of school, you have not accumulated a lot of impressive work experience to outshine your educational background, you may consider keeping your education section at the top for a couple more years; but it would be more prudent, of course, to consider garnering more work experience to strengthen the overall effect of your resume.
