5 Pointers For Seamlessly Transitioning To Civilian Life 1. Create a Routine: Establishing a routine is crucial for regaining a sense of normalcy post-military service. Transitioning from a highly structured military life to uncertainty can leave you feeling adrift. 2. Serve Others: Many veterans find fulfillment in serving others. Volunteering not only gives back to the community but also provides a sense of purpose and routine. Consider lending your skills and expertise to local organizations or causes that resonate with you. 3. Highlight Your Military Accomplishments: Translating military experience into civilian terms can be daunting. However, your military background equips you with valuable skills such as leadership, discipline, and resilience. 4. Take Advantage of Resources: Utilize resources available to veterans transitioning to civilian life. Seek career assistance, including resume writing and job search support, from local libraries or community centers. 5. Find a Support System: Building a support network is essential for a successful transition. Lean on family and friends for emotional support, or connect with fellow veterans through support groups or online communities. Remember, transitioning to civilian life is a process, and it's okay to seek help along the way. #All #ActiveDuty #TransitioningMilitary #MilitarySpouses #Reservists #Veterans #ACTNowEducation

Tomorrow marks Hire A Veteran Day, but every day is an opportunity to consider veteran job seekers. According to LinkedIn's 2023 Veteran Opportunity Report, veterans are 27% less likely to leave their first job within the first 6 months compared to nonveterans. While veteran unemployment is low at 2.9% in June 2024, underemployment remains a significant issue. On average, it takes veterans 17 (!!!) years to achieve their first Director role, compared to 9 years for nonveteran new graduates. There is a noticeable gap in understanding military experience and translating skills to the corporate world. A recent conversation with a 15-year veteran highlighted the challenges veterans face during transitions. He shared his experience of interviewing for roles that pay half of what he earned in the military. This disparity underscores the need for better support in bridging the gap between military service and civilian opportunities. I encourage you to read LinkedIn's report below and start the conversation internally in your organizations on how you can better support this underutilized talent pool. And for the algorithm- a pic of my favorite veteran, my dad. #Veterans #EmploymentOpportunities #MilitaryTransition #VeteranHiring #Underemployment

🚨 Important Tip for Transitioning Military Members! 🚨 As you move from military service to civilian employment, here’s a crucial tip for your resume, job applications, and LinkedIn profile: 🔹DO NOT put the city/state where you want to live. 🔹DO list your current location and indicate that you are open to relocation or planning to relocate. Why is this important? When recruiters find out that your actual location is different from what you listed, it can lead to lost opportunities and frustration for hiring companies. Transparency about your current location, paired with a note on your willingness to move, ensures a smoother and more trustworthy hiring process. Best of luck in your job search, and thank you for your service! #TransitioningMilitary #JobSearchTips #VeteranEmployment #ResumeTips #LinkedInTips #MilitaryToCivilian #VeteranSupport Image by OpenClipart-Vectors from Pixabay
