FEEDBACK
QUESTIONNAIRE

You just took the Earned instinct assessment. I'm Jon — disabled veteran, small business owner, and the founder building this. Now I need your honest reaction — the good, the bad, and whatever felt off. About 5 minutes. Every answer goes directly into shaping the next version.

I don't need you to be nice about it. I need you to be honest. If something didn't land, didn't fit, or felt wrong for your branch or background — that's the most useful thing you can tell me. Say it exactly like you'd say it to my face.

// 15 questions  ·  ~5 minutes  ·  Your feedback shapes the platform

// PRIVACY: Your responses go to me personally — nowhere else. Never sold, never shared, never used for anything except making this platform better for veterans. Name and contact info are only used so I can follow up if you want me to.

SECTION A — THE QUESTIONS1 of 3
// Section A
About the questions themselves
How often did you feel like neither answer really described you?
When both options felt true, or neither felt right — how often did that happen across the 30 questions?
Never
Almost every question
Were there questions that felt written for a different branch than yours?
If yes — which question, and what felt off about the language or scenario? (Tap "View the 30 questions" below to check numbers.)
Which question felt most like a forced choice between two things you actually do equally well?
If none — say so. If one did — what were the two options and why did both feel true? (Tap "View the 30 questions" below if you need to check.)
Overall, how well did the questions capture how you actually operate?
Not at all
Exactly right

SECTION B — YOUR RESULTS2 of 3
// Section B
About your results
Your top three career matches
Read them off your results screen and type them in.
What was your honest reaction when you saw your top match?
Read the "why" explanation under your top match. Does the language feel like it's describing you — or describing someone else?
Someone else
Exactly me
If you had gotten these results during your actual transition — would it have changed anything?
This is the most important question in the whole questionnaire. Be completely honest.
Tell me more — why would it or wouldn't it have changed things?
// Your current career
Where you are now
What is your current job or career field?
Describe it however feels natural — job title, industry, or both.
How long have you been in this role or career field?
Does your current career fit how you naturally operate under pressure — or do you feel like you're working against your instincts most days?
This is the most valuable data point in the whole questionnaire for building a better platform. Be honest even if the answer is uncomfortable.
1 = Fighting it daily 5 = Exactly wired for it

SECTION C — BIGGER PICTURE3 of 3
// Section C
The bigger picture
What's the one thing that would make this more useful to a veteran in transition right now?
Don't filter. If something obvious is missing, say it. This becomes the product roadmap.
What was the hardest part of your own transition — the thing no tool or program actually helped with?
Would you share this with another veteran going through transition?
Is there anyone you served with I should show this to? (Optional)
Specifically someone who had a hard transition or still feels like they're in the wrong spot.
Anything else you want me to know? (Optional)
