If you’re ex-military and looking for a job, here are a few tips:
- Take advantage of all the job hunting resources provided by the military.
- List your military experience on your resume just as you would a civilian job. Just because it isn’t a traditional “job” doesn’t mean it isn’t relevant.
- During your job interview, remember to explain in easy-to-understand terms what you did in the military. Avoid using abbreviation and other terms that civilians may not know.
- Go back to school! Through military programs, you likely qualify for free or discounted tuition.
The job market is tough for everyone, so even if you have military experience, you might find it difficult to get a position. Luckily, new government initiatives will help members of the military and their families find jobs. You can read more about this plan here.
