Military-to-Civilian Career Transition Guide: The Essential Job Search Handbook for Service Members

Buy
This book provides a framework for career transition for military service members and their families. While other books similar in scope address just one or two aspects of the job search process, this one addresses the actual entire transition process and includes the family perspective with it.

Key Features:

  • Considers the family’s perspective and needs during the transition process.
  • Includes charts, checklists, and worksheets.
  • Provides resume and cover letter advice and sample resumes and cover letters for transitioning military personnel.
  • Helps with making the decision to leave the military.
  • Helps with surviving the first month on the job and beyond.
If there’s one thing people in the military and those married to it understand, it’s the concept of change. We can always count on the fact that things just won’t stay the same regardless of our efforts to either resist it or encourage it.

Perhaps the biggest change of all comes when we decide to leave behind the service and its ever-so-eventful lifestyle once and for all. Enter stress, uncertainty, and a general discontent concerning the imminent future that suddenly seems to loom before us in the shape of a huge question mark. To some degree, these feelings are similar to those we have whenever we’re handed a new set of orders. A million questions start to form in our minds. Where will I live? Where will I work? How do I find a job?

Those questions only scratch the surface. Clichéd as it may sound, these unsettled feelings are normal to have, regardless of how long you’ve been in the military or been associated with it as a family member. You may be a “lifer” with an impressive set of rank on your shoulders, and you’re getting ready to retire in a year or so. You may think you know it all and have everything under control. After all, you’ve enjoyed a successful career in the armed forces. You may be a bold, audacious, risk-taking warrior capable of conquering anything, but…do you really know what you have to do in order to actually leave the military?

Regardless of your situation, you can get a grip on what needs to be done and how to do it. That’s where the Military-to-Civilian Career Transition Guide can help you and your loved ones. This book can help you
