JR’S JOURNEY
Hockey was my identity.
For the first 24 years of my life, hockey was my entire purpose. It was all I knew. I played collegiately at Holy Cross. But like all things, my playing career eventually came to an end.
I was at a crossroads.
One day I woke up, and I couldn’t say I was a hockey player anymore. I struggled to find a new identity — to transition from an athlete to a real-world employee.
Then, I found my new purpose.
When I discovered the world of sales, everything clicked. The same skills I learned as an athlete — competitiveness, resilience, teamwork — drove my success in the team-based atmosphere I craved. Now I want to help other athletes and veterans do the same.

THE SHIFT GROUP DIFFERENCE
EASING THE POST-UNIFORM TRANSITION
Former elite athletes and military veterans often struggle to transition into the workforce post-uniform. Sales hiring is a broken process that costs companies valuable time and money a period
Shift Group is solving both of these problems.
Our entire team is former athletes and veterans. We know how hard the transition from uniform to corporate life can be. We strive to help our candidates remove that stress and transition into a successful career.
We have a proprietary training program designed to help candidates discover a purpose, retain information, learn transferable skills, and become top sales performers.
In our corporate lives, we’ve hired thousands of people and built successful sales organizations. We understand how to train and onboard talent that will make a lasting impact at your company.
Our product is a technology platform, not a recruiting service. Shift Connect is a scalable, self-service solution that works at the speed our companies and candidates need it to.
