Preparing For A Civilian Career

When we get out of the military we aren't always as prepared as we think we are for applying to a civilian job.

In this episode we talk about:

• How to figure out what job you'd be good at.
• Where to get the skills or qualifications you might need for a new career.
• What employers are looking for in a potential employee.
• How to narrow your focus in your job search rather than using a "shotgun" approach.
• How to "talk up" your military experience. Even mundane things like paperwork and urinalysis testing can be spun in a positive manner.
• When to start applying for jobs.
• Where and how to network with potential peers and employers.
