You Are Capable of More Than Your MOS

You’re capable of so much more than your MOS

My brothers and sisters in arms, Mike Sarrialle from CareerRecon here. Hey, going to tell you a quick story about my transition.

There’s a lot of platforms out there that say they can find opportunities that relate to your MOS.  As a SEAL, I plugged in my MOS to those job boards and the only opportunities that came back were security jobs. And I didn’t want a job where I was carrying a gun anymore.

You’re capable of so much more than your MOS.

I ended up starting in founding an executive search firm that is a senior level recruiting firm. Now if anyone had told me during the last three years in my SEAL career that I would end up in human resources, I probably would have taken that as an insult.

But I’m serious, I never thought I would end up in human resources and executive search, but my path, my transition path, both good and bad experiences finally led me here.  And guess what. I did find a passion, helping all of you study, find positions in the business world, and start to climb the corporate ladder within your respective companies. It could be the next set of industry leaders that take this economy to the next level.

Life is a mystery to be lived, not a puzzle to be solved. Embrace the process, learn and be open to anything

The bottom line…you don’t know where you’ll end up sometimes. Life is a mystery to be lived, not a puzzle to be solved. Embrace the process, learn and be open to anything.

Alright guys. Mike S out of here.
