Regularly updating your resume is one of the best things you can do for your career. If you’re like most professionals (including us!), you only update your resume when you start a new job search. However, there are compelling reasons to regularly review this important career document to ensure it’s ready to use at a moment’s notice. If your resume is updated on a regular basis, it takes very little time to add details about a promotion, a new skill, or an educational achievement when the time comes. Throw in the right keywords, and it’s ready when you need — without the additional stress. Need help?

Transition Tip Thursday! Your transition from military to civilian life can be a challenging process, but with proper planning and preparation, it can be made much easier. Here are five tips to help you start planning your military transition ahead of time: Start early: It's important to start thinking about your transition at least a year before your separation or retirement date. This will give you enough time to research and prepare for the civilian job market, update your resume, and network with potential employers. Identify your skills: Take some time to identify the skills you've developed during your military career and how they can be transferred to the civilian job market. This will help you market yourself to potential employers and increase your chances of finding a job that's a good fit for you. Research the job market: Research the job market in the area where you plan to live after your transition. This will give you an idea of the types of jobs available, the qualifications required, and the salary range. You can also research companies that hire veterans and attend job fairs to network with potential employers. Update your resume: Your military resume may not be suitable for civilian employers, so it's important to update it to reflect your civilian skills and experiences. You can also seek the help of a professional resume writer to ensure that your resume is tailored to the civilian job market. Take advantage of resources: There are many resources available to help veterans transition to civilian life, including the Department of Veterans Affairs, Transition Assistance Program, and military-to-civilian job boards. Take advantage of these resources to help you prepare for your transition and find a job that's right for you.

**Motivation Monday:** I've seen many posts about tailoring your resume specifically for the job you're applying for and how challenging this can be for transitioning military members. Let me be vulnerable for a moment and share my experience. It is hard to do this. Why? Because our resumes are filled with great information and achievements from our careers, and rewording, or dare I say, removing things may hurt that pride. I can also say that I have done it; I’ve reworded things to make more sense and even removed things that add zero value to the position I’m applying for. It’s hard because we’re so used to our performance evaluations and decorations, but having a resume tailored for the role is key if you want to get that email or phone call. Once I made the change, I started to receive requests for interviews. #MotivationMonday #CareerTransition #MilitaryToCivilian #ResumeTips #JobHunting #VeteranSupport #CareerAdvice #SuccessStory
