Former Army linebacker Barrett Scruggs joins the Black Knight Nation podcast to talk about his time at West Point and life after the academy

Today's guest is an alumnus of the Bradley-Morris placement process. Barrett Scruggs graduated from West Point and served in the Army as an officer for 5 years before making the transition to corporate banking via the Military Officer Leadership Program at Citi. He is now the Director of the Workforce Management Department at leading investment and banking firm Sofi based in Salt Lake City, UT. Barrett began his journey working with another recruiter and made his way to Bradley-Morris during his transition when our team reached out about a role with Citi on their consumer banking team. In this conversation, we catch up about how that program shaped him to do what he's doing today and cover topics like: -His decision to follow a mentor to SoFi from Citi. -Banking Operations - what is the difference between consumer or investment or corporate banking? -Differences between understanding military organization and structure, adapting to the culture. -Attacking the first 90 days at his new job. -Learning to trust the team and your peers without a shared service background. -First major project wins and seeing the fruits of a good plan.  -How to know when the time is right to transition from the military.   Book recommendation: The Alchemist, by Paulo Coelho  How to contact Barrett: Twitter @CBScruggs Instagram BarrettScruggs
