#69 | Zack Hughes | Green Beret & COO of Elite Meet
Great chat with Zack Hughes. We talk about his background, Elite Meet, and the importance of networking post-military. Zack is the COO of Elite Meet, a non-profit that helps “connect these elite veterans [SOF & fighter pilots] with high quality employment opportunities.” Listen in…
About Elite Meet: Ever wondered what Navy SEALs, fighter pilots and other elite veterans do once they leave the military? They go job hunting, just like everybody else looking for a new career. Except special operators and fighter pilots have spent on average 10 or more prime income earning years out of today’s offices and businesses and inside of combat units that demand all of their time, leaving no room for post-military career exploration until their separation is upon them; finding their place in the civilian world can be as big a challenge as anything they have faced in training or in combat. Elite Meet was founded in 2017 to connect these elite veterans with high quality employment opportunities.
