About

Problem Statement

US Army personnel often face difficulties when shifting to the private tech sector due to a lack of tailored career support, limited networking opportunities, and the challenge of mapping military skills to civilian roles. A dedicated solution was required to streamline this transition and provide targeted resources.

Objectives

Implementation

The project was implemented using WordPress with custom configuration and enhancements:

Hosting & Infrastructure:

  • Deployed on managed WordPress hosting with SSL and standard security best practices.

Database / Storage:

  • Site content (pages, posts, videos) stored in WordPress database (MySQL/MariaDB).

  • Media assets (images, video thumbnails) stored via WordPress media library with CDN/caching.

Frontend / UI:

  • Clean, professional theme aligned with Everetics branding, emphasizing clarity, readability, and trust.

  • Responsive design to ensure usability across devices.

Backend / Plugins / Custom Code:

  • Use of WordPress plugins for contact / scheduling (Calendly embed), video galleries, blog / published content.

  • Possibly custom post types for services to standardize layout and maintain consistency.

  • SEO optimization, performance plugins, caching, security hardening.

Key takeaways / Challenges:

  • Presenting expert consulting services in a way that is accessible without oversimplification.

  • Balancing content richness (videos, published work) with site speed and usability.

  • Creating clear conversion paths (from learning about services → engaging / booking).

Results / Outcomes

  • KPIs / Metrics:
    • Increased job application success rate among transitioning veterans.
    • High engagement in networking features within the first 3 months.
  • Before & After Comparison:
    • Before: Veterans relied on generic job boards and struggled to find relevant roles.
    • After: A dedicated ecosystem mapped military experience to civilian job opportunities.
  • Key Improvements:
    • 90% faster application process.
    • Enhanced discoverability of roles tailored to veterans’ skills.
    • Improved networking with industry peers and employers.
