Opportunity

I may be a little biased, but this is neat! Unfortunately, medics tend to get stuck in the idea they can only provide direct patient care. More often than not, here at home, we get told that changing the bedpan is the scope of our practice. This program has multiple pathways to include healthcare leadership, highlighting our ability to strategize operations while understanding the frontline needs at the same time. Definitely worth looking into! #military #veterans #virginia

The Career Transition Strategies Workshop facilitated by Noël McCall / MilBridge Consulting, LLC, was valuable to me. If you are transitioning, this is a good workshop to attend to help you prepare successfully. Although I have attended workshops and fellowships in the past covering transition topics in fine detail, I believe it is imperative to stay sharp and incorporate lessons learned to continually improve - especially when choosing the right company culture, position within your chosen passions, and path to pick the right job after the military. Here are some key takeaways from the workshop: *Military to Civilian Transition: Further focusing my resume, pitch, and interview response narrative. *One-on-One Coaching: Personalized guidance to refine my career path.  *Networking Strategy Improvement: Continuously working on uncovering hidden job opportunities. Networking goes beyond seeking job opportunities, as it allows you to help others as well. This is the area I seek most to improve, as it is a key differentiator for success. *Personal Branding: Understanding my brand, ensuring I was still on azimuth, and further refining/learning how to communicate it effectively. I was able to compare an assessment with similar ones to better ascertain my skills, strengths, and weaknesses. *Negotiating Offers: Setting expectations and exploring options. Huge thanks to Noël McCall and Al Lampkins for hosting this workshop. Thanks also to Veterans Bridge Home and @The Steven A. Cohen Military Family Clinic. #CareerTransition #MilitaryToCivilian #ProfessionalGrowth

Something to think about

Updating my profile for future employment once I transition from military to civilian life.

Some of my favorite job application questions I've seen lately: Some people are Pirates and some people are Imperial Naval Officers. On the spectrum between the two, which one are you? Why? If neither, how would you describe yourself? Would you rather be a "Jack-of-all-trades" or "Master-of-one"? Tell us your answer, and why? What was the most important book you've read in the last 12 months? #plottwist: these questions all came from one single application. I'd love to see more of this, where your thought processes are a part of the screener, instead of just how someone looks on paper. #hiring #jobhunt2024
