Orion Insights

A Data Center is typically a building, a dedicated space within a building, or a group of buildings used to house computer systems and associated components, such as telecommunications and storage systems. Data centers centralize an organization’s IT operations and equipment, as well as where it stores, manages, and disseminates its data. They house a network’s most critical systems and are vital to the continuity of daily operations.

Ghouls, goblins, and ghosts! It’s that spooky time of the year when children and adults alike don a new and often scary persona to earn tricks or treats. You may open your door tonight to a few ghosts, and, at Orion, that’s where we like them -- at your door, not in your recruiting process.

Last week, Orion hosted a live #OrionChat on Twitter, @orioncareers, with JDog Removal & Hauling. In case you aren’t familiar with the concept, a tweet chat is a live conversation on Twitter to discuss a specific topic.

Twenty years have passed since Andy Pero and Shane Bishop, Account Executives at Orion Talent and Service Academy graduates, began their post-military careers at Orion. During that time, Andy and Shane have helped at least 400 companies hire more than 2,000 veterans, and have gleaned some valuable best practices. We are excited to share their insight in our new e-book, “1999-2009: Lessons Learned from 20 Years of Military Hiring.”

Over the last 28 years, Orion has matched over 45,000 Veterans with rewarding careers, including more than 6,000 Navy Electronics Technicians, and we are particularly proud of the high caliber opportunities we have available for our nation’s Enlisted Navy personnel.

Undoubtedly, you have heard of the United States Military Academy (USMA), the United States Naval Academy (USNA), or the United States Air Force Academy (USAFA), but do you know what it means to be a graduate of one of these schools? Hiring a Service Academy graduates means you are hiring the future leaders of your organization who have the education and experience to affect change.

This week, we’re proud to profile Anthony Great, a former U.S. Army Armor Officer who is now a Production Supervisor with Tempur Sealy. Anthony worked with Orion Talent a few years ago to help find a career when he transitioned from the Army, and attended a Distinguished Candidate Conference in Atlanta.

Recruitment Process Outsourcing Association (RPOA) dives into an interview with Cory Kruse, Orion Novotus President, to discuss life, work, and the RPO industry.

Orion has partnered with JDog to provide exclusive franchise opportunities for honorably discharged Veterans and Military family members. The company is seeking motivated entrepreneurs to own and operate a franchise, backed by JDog’s proven business model and all of the support you need to be successful.

In the age of ghosting, social media reviews, and low unemployment rates, the interview process has become far more than a series of questions you ask a candidate. Whether it be a screening or selection interview, by phone, video, or in person, the candidate experience throughout the process is paramount.
