Industry Talk: EODT Awarded $99.9 M Security Contract in Afghanistan

Filed under: Afghanistan,Industry Talk — Tags: , , , — Matt @ 3:44 PM

    Keep your eye on the career section on their website, and more than likely, you will see the forums lighting up when they start filling these positions.  Although, I am sure they have tons of guys lined up already for this, it never hurts to get your resume in or update an old one.  

    But look at the trend guys? Lots of jobs coming up for Afghanistan, and we are definitely needed in this war.  Security contracting is a good idea in the eyes of today’s new leaders it seems, and it is up to us to continue to make this a good idea.     

     So arm yourself mentally and remember, be the guy that does it right when nobody is looking.  Apply Kaizen and the rest of the Jundisms I have talked about to yourself and your team, and you will do great things out there. –Matt

Job Tips: Dedicate Time to the Forums

Filed under: Job Tips — Tags: , , , — Matt @ 1:23 PM

     For this post, I wanted to re-emphasize how important it is to read the forums.  From what I have been reading lately, both SOC SMG and EODT are looking for guys again to deploy to Iraq.  This is the kind of information that you won’t necessarily find while doing a basic Google search or checking those company’s websites.  This is the kind of stuff, that you only get clued into, when reading the posts from the various recruiters and managers that hang out on the forums. 

     What you should clue in on, is when the moderators of the forums, are promoting news and jobs.  That, and if a moderator can vouch for a recruiter’s or manager’s post on the forum.  I would also warn against believing everything you hear on the forums, because there are times when guys spread some gossip or incorrect news.  In other words, you have to become an online job detective in order to make your own determinations.  One thing is for sure, if you don’t get good at reading the forums, then you will miss out.  For me, I check all my favorite forums at least twice a day, and sometimes more.  Happy job hunting.  -Head Jundi
