Bennett Family of Companies Partnership with Transition OverWatch Assists in Launching Military Members Into Successful Careers
December 26, 2023
MCDONOUGH, GEORGIA (December 26, 2023) – Over the past year, the Bennett Family of Companies has been partnering with Transition OverWatch, demonstrating a shared commitment to honoring the service of individuals to our Nation. Transition OverWatch’s initiatives play a crucial role in facilitating the seamless transition of military members from active duty to meaningful civilian careers, offering support in interview readiness, community building, professional development and overcoming challenges.
Charles Vitanza became a member of Transition OverWatch with 100 days remaining in the Air Force. Charles’ love for technology lead him to participate in the Software Developer Apprenticeship program. Through this program, Charles was introduced to the Bennett Family of Companies and officially joined the team on December 5th, 2022.
“I really like technology and took a leap of faith into software engineering. My biggest fear getting out was my resume and interviewing because I had no experience prior to going into the military.”

Charles was presented with a commemorative American flag, symbolizing his success and honoring his time in the Air Force.
Charles expressed his endorsement for Transition OverWatch, stating that he “would recommend Transition OverWatch” because it “alleviates the fear of being worried there is nothing on the other side” after discharge. He further remarked that his “first year at Bennett has been amazing.”
