To make the most of these strengths, focus on translating your military experience into terms that resonate with employers. Highlight transferable skills â like project management, logistics and team leadership â using language that reflects the industry youâre targeting.
Networking is also crucial, so consider connecting with veteran-friendly organizations, attending job fairs and reaching out to other veterans in your field. Take advantage of resources such as the Department of Veterans Affairs and veteran-focused job placement programs, which often offer career coaching, résumé assistance and more.
Many large employers also have specialty recruitment and onboarding programs for veterans where you will find a much more receptive audience who appreciates what you have done for our country and how that translates to what you can do for them.
