Bridge My Return software uses a skills-to-skills matching algorithm to circumvent skills misunderstanding and prevent pigeonholing. BMR members build a profile, which takes about 20-30 minutes to complete. For service members, BMR has mapped skills to their MOS. They select the skills BMR suggests for that military job and indicate their skill level.
But the MOS obviously does not apply to the military spouse. So, BMR has created an MSO (Military Spouse Orientation), which summarizes and presents skills many military spouses have in common, such as service orientation, social perceptiveness, time management, coordination, critical thinking, monitoring and active listening.
Jobseekers then select other skills from a skills bank – skills picked up over the course of a career. In Connelly’s case, she would include management of financial resources, negotiation, management of people, leadership, influencing and complex problem solving to name a few. She would then be matched to positions requiring those skills – jobs and careers with a wide array of military-ready employers ready to hire.
