Does Shift Only Place In Entry Level Roles? Shift Group may have started with a focus on helping athletes and veterans break into business through entry-level roles, but that was just the beginning. Today, we’re a leader in athlete and veteran job placement, working with hundreds of companies across the U.S. and internationally who turn to us for more than just early-career talent. They’re looking for experienced professionals who also bring the grit, leadership, and coachability forged through sports and military service.
Whether you’re looking for your first role or targeting the VP level, if you’ve worn a uniform and are ready to work, Shift Group is ready to support your next move at all levels.
Hiring managers are increasingly looking for people who don’t just check boxes; they want teammates who can lead, grow, and elevate those around them. For athletes and veterans further along in their careers, Shift Group is opening doors to director, VP, and strategy-level positions where your lived experience is a competitive advantage. Our evolution mirrors yours. And our team is here to support you every step of the way.
Although we started the business focused on entry-level roles, over the last two years we’ve evolved.
Now, our customers—hundreds of companies across the United States and the world—come to us not just for an entry-level, well-trained athlete or veteran, but also for a more experienced athlete or veteran who’s looking for that third, fourth, or fifth job but has that DNA that you bring to the table as an athlete or as a veteran.
So we have had a lot of success placing people at the mid-level, the director level, even the VP level.
So no matter your experience level, if you wore a uniform and you’re willing to work hard, our program is going to be a good fit for you—and we’re going to do everything we can to make you successful and find you a job that you love.
Connecting former college athletes and military veterans with meaningful business training and employment opportunities.
