Does this sound familiar?
-
"I can't figure out what to do after the military."
-
"Are my military skills valuable in the civilian marketplace?"
-
"How do I find companies that are willing to train me after service?"
-
"I'd like to explore a different industry."
If it does, then you're not alone.
Struggling daily to figure out what to do after serving your country is NOT what you had in mind when you started your military career. We've been in your shoes.
It's perfectly normal to feel stressed or anxious. With so many job opportunities, conflicting job-seeking information, and a long list of things to do before your last day in service, it can feel overwhelming to focus on the right steps to make your transition a smooth one.
​
The fact is, many service members have thought that getting a civilian job would be fairly easy. That's because there is one huge looming problem.
​
​
Service members don't know how to leverage their military skills, causing them to undervalue their
military experience or assume they have all the skills required to land a great job.
​
​
The truth is, if you're anxious about working in the civilian workforce and figuring out how to leverage your
military experience...
​
THEN YOU NEED TO TAKE THE TIME TO FIGURE THINGS OUT.​
​
You need to find an industry partnership where you will gain valuable work experience as you
flex your military skills and expertise.
(Read that again, because it's important; and it's the key to success after the military.)
