For Veteran Employment Programs

Interview readiness platform for veteran employment programs.

AI mock interview practice with a military-to-civilian translation profile, federal-panel and commercial interview formats, manager dashboards built for SkillBridge and post-separation cohorts, and funder-ready outcome reports. Built by an Air Force veteran. Used by VetsInTech.

Built by an Air Force veteran and former Department of the Navy program manager. The product was designed with the transition in mind from the start.

Built for the transition cohort

The interview-prep layer SkillBridge, TAP, and grant-funded transition programs were missing

Military-to-civilian translation built into the coaching profile

A separate org-wide profile reframes MOS, AFSC, rate, and military awards into civilian-readable answers. Your participants do not just practice generic interview questions. They practice the version of every answer that a civilian hiring manager will actually understand and remember.

Federal-panel and commercial interview formats

Veterans landing in federal contracting and commercial roles need to practice two distinct interview cadences. STAR-format behavioral answers for USAJobs panels. The looser conversational style most commercial hiring managers run. Both formats are configurable per participant or per cohort.

Practice the questions vets actually get asked

"Why are you leaving the military?" "Tell me about a time you led without authority." "How do you take direction from someone younger than you?" The scenario library includes the questions civilian hiring managers ask veterans, not a generic interview-prep deck.

Outcome reports that prove the transition is working

Per-participant readiness scores, baseline-to-current deltas, session counts, and cohort comparisons. Mapped to WIOA measurable skill gains and credential attainment indicators. Exports in the format your VA, SkillBridge, or grant-funder reporting officer can file directly.

Manager dashboard tuned to cohort placement timelines

Most veteran employment programs run on tight placement windows: SkillBridge cohorts, post-separation transition windows, grant cycles. The manager dashboard shows who is ready, who is drifting, and who needs one more week before they walk into the interview.

Built by a veteran. Used by veteran-serving programs.

The founder, Shawn Gregoire, is an Air Force veteran and a former federal program manager at the Department of the Navy. The product was built with the transition in mind, not retrofitted for it. VetsInTech is a customer.

Common questions from veteran employment program leads

How is this different from TAP and the SkillBridge interview prep?

TAP is a multi-day classroom seminar each separating service member sits through once. SkillBridge places candidates in internships. Capstone Workforce sits alongside both as the on-demand interview-practice and outcome-reporting layer, picking up where the classroom ends and giving you cohort-wide visibility on readiness.

Does it work for SkillBridge cohorts specifically?

Yes. SkillBridge fellows can use Capstone Workforce throughout their internship to prep for both internal placement interviews and the broader civilian job market. The manager dashboard gives the SkillBridge program lead visibility on cohort-wide readiness without one-on-one staff time per fellow.

Can we customize scenarios for veteran-specific federal roles (Department of Veterans Affairs, DoD civilian, federal contractor)?

Yes. Custom scenarios are configurable per cohort or per participant. Set the role, the agency, the question style, the difficulty, and the evaluation criteria. The AI panel can simulate a federal interview cadence on request.

Is the founder actually a veteran?

Yes. Shawn Gregoire is an Air Force veteran and a former federal program manager at the Department of the Navy. The product was built with the military-to-civilian transition in mind from day one.

What does pricing look like for veteran employment programs?

Cohort Packs start at $4,500 per 16-week cycle (up to 50 fellows, full platform included). Annual Platform tiers start at 2,000 per year. Veteran-serving nonprofits can structure pricing to align with grant funding cycles. Full pricing on the pricing page.
