Tim shares his recruiting insights on trust, open communication, and expertise, while Joel highlights the importance of a guide with business experience, a strong network, and a deep commitment to your success.

From Military Leadership to Corporate Success: Peyton Carder’s Next Chapter Leaving the military and stepping into the business world can feel like uncharted territory. But for Peyton, the transition wasn’t just about finding a job—it was about finding the right team, culture, and mission. Now, as he steps into his new management role with Love's Travel Stops, Peyton reflects on the outstanding support he received along the way. From the welcoming atmosphere at Love’s to the mentorship and guidance from our team at Cameron-Brooks, his journey is a testament to how military leadership translates seamlessly into corporate success. Congratulations, Peyton! We are proud to have been a part of your transition and can’t wait to see the impact you’ll make in this next chapter. #Leadership #CareerTransition #MilitaryToBusiness #VeteranSuccess #CameronBrooks #JMO #JuniorMilitaryOfficer
I am pleased to announce that I have accepted a new management position with Love's Travel Stops! The Love’s team has been nothing but exceptional (Jordan Sheets, SHRM-CP, Creig R.) in displaying their admiration for the unique management experience the military has provided me. The atmosphere and welcoming attitude within the organization go above and beyond. I’d further like to show my gratitude to Cameron-Brooks, Inc. in their excellent military to business transitional program. Their entire team was phenomenal throughout the educational and interview process and I would not have been able to do it without them. I’m thrilled as I wrap up this chapter and head into this new role!

When Leslie Elliott first reached out to Ryan Woodward on LinkedIn, he was skeptical about Cameron-Brooks. Transitioning from the military to a business career felt like a leap, and he wasn’t sure if Cameron-Brooks was the right path. But after a conversation with his stepmom and some deep reflection on his goals—building a business career and making the most of a SkillBridge opportunity—he decided to take the leap. Ryan didn’t just participate in the Cameron-Brooks SkillBridge; he maximized it. He honed his skills, prepared relentlessly, and entered the career conference with confidence. The result? Nine "yeses" in his first 11 interviews and three strong offers on the table. With options in hand, he chose his dream role with McLane Company, Inc. in Arizona. Ryan’s story is a testament to what happens when preparation meets opportunity. Thinking about your next step? Maybe it’s time for a conversation. #SkillBridge #CareerTransition #Leadership #VeteranSuccess #BusinessCareer #JMO #JuniorMilitaryOfficer #MilitarytoBusiness

Benin A., knew he had a choice: spend 20 years in the military or forge a new path. Looking ahead to life at 40 or 45, he asked himself: What do I want my future to look like? After weighing his decisions and educating himself, Benin sought the private sector. Through self-reflection and strategic planning, he built a bridge to a new career. Along the way, he learned that leadership isn’t just about giving orders. It’s about understanding people, adapting, and coaching others to success. Now thriving at Love's Travel Stops, Benin’s journey is a testament to long-term vision, decisive action, and the leadership principles Cameron-Brooks instills in its alumni. Listen as he shares his journey with Neil Metzler in the lastest episode of "Your Next Big Thing" - https://lnkd.in/gtGa346t #Leadership #CareerTransition #VeteranSuccess #CameronBrooksAlumni #ProfessionalGrowth #MilitaryToCorporate #LeadershipDevelopment
