Interview with Vince Patton, Retired U.S. Coast Guard

Our interview with Vince Patton, Retired U.S. Coast Guard and Vice President of Homeland Security Programs with AFCEA International, discusses his decision to join the Coast Guard, how he took advantage military education incentives and his advice to service members contemplating a career in communications.

"The willingness with which our young people are likely to serve in any war, no matter how justified, shall be directly proportional to how they perceive the Veterans of earlier wars were treated and appreciated by their nation."

“A vet that looks and feels good about their appearance has the confidence to move a step closer to their goal of employment.

As Jim progressed through his employment search, he began reaching out to any veteran services that crossed his path.  Then, he found Corporate America Supports You (CASY) and began by taking a FREE virtual training entitled “How To Lock That Job - Interview Techniques That Work For You” with Training Manager, Co-Founder and Editor of the MSEJ, Amy Rossi.

“I took an online seminar on resume writing and interviewing, and they were both fantastic.  Sometimes they reinforced what I was doing, often times they helped me focus on what I needed to improve upon.”
