Rob transitioned from the Army in 2020 after serving in the United States Army for 23 years. Rob has a passion for both leadership and veteran success. Rob uses this platform to inform those about the transition and to give them the best opportunity for success from the battlefield to the boardroom. The veteran community is unique, and so are all the transition stories. We invite you to listen and learn, and we also ask you to tell your story as well.

Leveraging LinkedIn - PFFL - Episode 119 with Daniel Alfon
Daniel and Rob discussed the importance of tailoring a LinkedIn profile to match specific professional goals rather than using generic military terminology.
Keyword Integration: Daniel recommends extracting 20–30 keywords from ideal job descriptions and weaving them naturally into a profile to improve search visibility.
Bypassing Gatekeepers: Instead of focusing solely on HR professionals, users should identify and connect with the specific individuals they would report to.
The "Open to Work" Debate: Daniel advises against using the "Open to Work" badge for most professionals, suggesting it can send a negative signal; instead, he recommends a targeted networking campaign within one's existing "tribe.

"I got more votes than Kanye for President" - PFFL-E#118- With Matthew Hasty
This week, we have a conversation with Matthew Hasty. We discuss his military career, including his rise to the rank of warrant officer, his transition out of the military, and his subsequent political aspirations. Hasty emphasizes the importance of education and mentorship in military service and civilian life. He highlights the challenges of transitioning from military to civilian roles, the significance of local community involvement, and the need for statesmanship.
We cover a lot of ground and talk some politics in this one, but I think it was a productive and enjoyable show.
