Compete Against Your Civilian Applicants
In the economy we face today, it is not enough for your resume to be good; it must
be great. The biggest challenge for military members is how to describe their
experience like that of their civilian counterparts in order to be competitive.
"Demilitarizing" military jargon is one of the most important strategies in landing a
corporate position. We wrote the book, Roadmap to Job-Winning Military to
Civilian Resumes to guide you through this process.
Your Success Is Our Success
With 25 years of past performance, we have developed more military to corporate
resumes than any other company. We find that most of our military clients are very
humble and tell us that they just did their job or accomplished their mission. So it’s
our job and mission to extract the myriad of experiences gained from your training,
actual real-time missions, and, most importantly, accomplishments, that set you
apart from everyone else in the military with the same MOS. Our writers have a vast
amount of training and expertise to accomplish this on your behalf.
Corporate America Wants to Hire the Military
Now you can have a superior military to corporate resume that will crystallize your
military experience into plain civilian language with a twist of excellence that is
compelling, is accomplishment-focused, and describes your experience and the
value you bring to any corporate environment. Contact us for professional military
resume assistance to help you as you transition.

The Federal Government Values Military Experience
If you are about to leave the military, chances are you have thought of seeking
your next career in the federal government. Why? Well, there are many reasons.
The federal government values military experience, as many of the jobs are similar
to work performed by military personnel. It's a natural transition for military
personnel to apply for their counterpart civilian job in the federal government.
Military to Federal Is a Natural Transition
It is not unusual for a military member or veteran to be hired as a civilian for the
same job or similar position once held while on Active Duty. Many of the skills and
duties involved in military positions are directly transferable to civilian government
jobs with DHS, FEMA, DoD, VA, TSA, DLA, FBI, CIA, and many other agencies and
organizations. Many federal agencies also value the training and certifications
gained in the military, not to mention those who possess and hold an active
security clearance.
Experience can substitute for college degrees in many mid- and senior-level
government positions. Private-sector jobs often require a minimum four-year
degree for mid- to senior-level positions, but the federal government recognizes
that military experience can often provide invaluable real-world experience. A
military member or veteran without a degree can often enter the government
workforce at a higher level than in the private sector. With the federal government,
you are less likely to start at the bottom and "work your way up."

Veterans' Preference
Military veteran candidates are often eligible for special preference over
non-veterans when applying for a government job. In some cases, even
the spouses of veterans who were separated under honorable conditions
can receive Veterans' Preference. New federal hiring initiatives have
been established by President Obama in 2011 to ensure veterans have
preference in landing federal jobs.

dedicated, high-quality employees necessary in a volatile economy.
While often overlooked in the past, military spouses are proving their
value as they combine talent, training, and unique skills honed by the
rigors of military family life. This might be the best time to press the
advantage of being "married to the military" and secure quality work.
