What Veterans Are Saying
Real Results From the Field
"A brief 30-minute Zoom call and Dan coached me on the inside tips to elevate myself for my next opportunity. I'm a week in and I've already had two CEOs and a President extend opportunities."
"Dan understands the mid-career military professional that most companies overlook. He saw past the job title and helped me tell my story in a way that actually landed interviews."
"He has a passion for helping veterans transition and through his technical skills he was able to provide real value in how I market myself. His approach is legit — highly recommend."
"My resume was good — but Dan showed me exactly where I was leaving points on the table. The rewrite and ATS score report gave me the confidence to go after senior roles I'd been second-guessing."
"Dan gets it. He lives inside the veteran community — this isn't a guy recruiting at the edges of it. The salary benchmarks alone were worth the investment; I negotiated $22K more than my initial offer."

The Problem
Even Strong Veteran Resumes Leave Points on the Table
Military language doesn't translate automatically. We fix that — with data.

8 Dimensions We Score & Optimize
01
Keyword Optimization
Are the right industry and role-specific keywords present in the right places? ATS filters on exact matches — missing even a few critical terms means your resume is rejected before a human sees it.
02
Civilian Language Translation
Military terminology that's second nature to you is invisible to a civilian hiring system. We flag every term that needs translation and replace it with language the private sector recognizes and values.
03
Quantified Accomplishments
Hiring managers want proof, not descriptions. We evaluate how well your experience entries demonstrate measurable impact — budget managed, people led, outcomes delivered — and reframe those that don't.
04
Formatting & Scannability
Many ATS systems can't parse complex tables, headers, or graphics. We check that your layout is clean, section headers are standard, and the document parses correctly across major platforms.
05
LinkedIn Alignment
Recruiters cross-check your resume against your LinkedIn profile. Inconsistencies — in titles, dates, or scope — create doubt. We score how tightly the two align and flag any gaps that could cost you credibility.
06
Leadership Narrative
Does your resume tell a coherent story of increasing leadership responsibility? We evaluate whether a reader can quickly understand your trajectory, scope of authority, and readiness for the role you're targeting.
07
Role-to-Target Relevance
How directly does your experience map to the specific function and seniority level you're pursuing? We score the alignment between what you've done and what your target role actually requires — and close the gap.
08
Executive Presence & Tone
Word choice, sentence structure, and framing all signal seniority. We evaluate whether your resume reads like a director or VP candidate — not a job seeker — and rewrite any language that undersells your level.
How It Works
Built for Veterans. Optimized for the Private Sector.
We know military careers. We know what civilian hiring managers actually want. This is the bridge.

Market Intelligence
What the Market Pays for What You Actually Do
Compensation isn't tied to your military title — it's tied to the scope of what you've led. Your report includes market data benchmarked to your leadership footprint, not your branch or MOS.
| Leadership Competency | What You've Done | Market Median | Top Quartile |
|---|---|---|---|
| P&L / Budget Ownership | Managed $5M–$50M+ in resources, personnel costs, and operational budgets | $130,000 | $168,000 |
| Large Team Leadership | Led 50–500+ people across complex, high-stakes environments | $125,000 | $158,000 |
| Crisis & Ambiguity Management | Made consequential decisions under pressure with incomplete information | $118,000 | $152,000 |
| Cross-Functional Execution | Coordinated across departments, contractors, and stakeholders to deliver outcomes | $122,000 | $155,000 |
| Strategic Planning & Ops | Designed and executed multi-phase operational plans with measurable results | $135,000 | $175,000 |

Your Personalized Negotiation Strategy Is Included
Most veterans accept the first number. Your package includes a written negotiating brief specific to your target role and market — so you walk into every conversation knowing exactly what to ask for and why.
01
Anchor High With Data
Your report shows the 75th percentile for your specific competency set — giving you a defensible number to open with, not a guess.
02
Translate Scope Into Dollar Value
We frame your leadership footprint — team size, budget, decision authority — in language that justifies premium compensation to a civilian hiring committee.
03
Counter the "No Military Experience" Discount
We give you specific language to neutralize the most common objection veterans face in comp discussions — and position your background as a premium, not a risk.
04
Total Comp Strategy
Base salary is one lever. Your brief covers bonus structure, equity, signing, and flexibility — so you know which to push and which to trade.

From the Desk of the Founder
Dan Gibbons
LtCol, USMCR · Founder, Tier One Talent · Marine For Life Representative, Charlotte
I built Tier One Talent because I watched too many sharp veterans leave interviews with offers well below what their experience warranted. Not because they weren't qualified — but because their resumes didn't tell the right story. I live inside this community. I'm a Marine, a reserve officer, and I've spent years placing post-military professionals into senior private sector roles. I know what hiring managers at mid-market companies actually want. And I know how to translate what you've done into language that gets you in the room — and closes the gap on what you're paid.

Common Questions
FAQ
Who is this for?
Veterans who are 5–15 years post-service and already working in the private sector — but not getting the interviews or offers their experience warrants. Also ideal for transitioning officers targeting senior individual contributor or director-level roles.
How long does it take?
Submit before noon and you'll receive your complete package the same business day. You'll get your ATS report, rewritten resume, salary benchmarks, LinkedIn recommendations, and DOCX master file via email.
Do I need to send anything besides my resume?
After payment you'll complete a short intake form — target role, industry, location, and preferences. That's it. If you have a specific job description, include it and we'll optimize keywords precisely to that role.
What's the guarantee?
If your rewritten resume doesn't score at least 15 points higher on ATS than your original, we revise it at no charge until it does. No questions asked.
Is this AI-generated or human-reviewed?
Both. AI handles the heavy lifting on ATS scoring and initial draft — then every resume is reviewed by a veteran recruiter who has spent years placing post-military professionals into senior private sector roles.
What industries do you specialize in?
Financial services, technology, consulting, manufacturing and logistics, and government contracting. If your target role is in one of these verticals, you'll get market-specific language and compensation data.
