Recruiting
"I was reluctant to use SFL-TAP, but am thankful that I did because I got a job by
learning to write an excellent resume, to dress for success, to negotiate and to
recognize my strengths. SFL-TAP deserves a million thanks."

Attention to Detail
"After one month of job searching and REFINING my resume for a position as a diesel
mechanic, I recieved a phone call from this company wanting me to start the following
week. I informed them that I was still a few months out and that I would be available
then. The company told me "not a problem" and that when the day came all I had to
do was call them and they would fill out the paperwork and I can start. The key
here is to listen to the counselors and jump on anything that has to do with what
you are looking on doing outside of the military. Another key here is to make sure
your resume is perfect and that means having the counselors check and double check,
to make sure you have written the best resume possible."

Paratrooper to Peace Officer
"With information given at SFL-TAP, I got out of the military mindset. Prior to retirement,
I was on the top of 5 agencies hiring lists. Ten days before my retirement date,
I was called by 3 agencies. I accepted a position as Deputy Sheriff that day. First
year earnings were twice what I earned in the Army. SFL-TAP equals-Good preparation
and good info!"

"The SFL-TAP staff helped me tremendously with my resume and advice for negotiations
with potential employers. Having one-on-one sessions with the counselors helped
me produce a high quality resume, which garnered me numerous job offers. Military
experience coupled with education and a great resume can land you a great job of
your choice with an excellent salary."
