Participating in a career event at Camp Pendleton (CA) got me thinking of the career transitioning challenges that a servicemember is likely to face. Right there and then I decided to do something about it. Transitioning to a civilian lifestyle is not trivial and even as a career-civilian (me) I have to stay on top of the game to survive in the civilian jungle. Servicemembers bring valuable skills to any employer (communication, strategy, leadership, adaptability, discipline, problem solving, technical and more). The challenge that many servicemembers shared with me is finding the right fit for their skills and more. Making a career change is not easy for those who have always been civilians, it is even harder (possibly) for transitioning service members. They may be coming into a completely unknown territory by themselves where they need to take charge of their own success (survival) -- a job, income and more. I set up On Base Off Base as a community where transitioning servicemembers can get advice from their peers as well as civilians wanting to provide timely experience-based guidance. These civilians will open their network to give you the connections/resources you need to succeed. Stay tuned for more. In upcoming posts I will share how to transition out with a plan and resources that will help you achieve a successful transition. #vetshelpingvets #vets #transitioningmilitary #careeradvice #careerguidance #servicemembers #departmentofdefense #pendleton #education #skills
