Chicago Distinguished Candidate Hiring Conference

Hire Top Military Officers through our National Event in Chicago, Illinois

Chicago, IL Military Hiring Conference

August 3 - 4, 2020

Since 1991, our clients have told us that the most important factor in deciding to hire military through an agency is the Quality of Candidate. Our unique Distinguished Candidate Conferences are designed to recruit, assess, screen, and present the top military candidates for your hiring needs. In 2019, more than 130 client companies strategically hired Orion's Military Officers through our Distinguished Candidate Conferences, with nearly 30% making multiple hires.

Orion's Distinguished Candidate Conferences enable you to develop a strong pipeline of future leaders and foster strategic organizational growth. Our Distinguished Candidates are carefully selected and represent the very top tier of Military Officers transitioning from Active Duty. They are seeking careers in growth roles including Leadership Development, Operations Management, Engineering, and Sales.
