About
More than one million service-members will leave the military and transition into civilian life over the next several years, according to a recent Government Accountability Office report.
Robert R. Ulin, who retired from the Army as a colonel, knows that its hard to make a smooth transition to employment as a civilian. Geared for veterans age forty-five to fifty-five, he wrote this guidebook to help you:
prepare for the job search;
sell your skills at interviews;
adjust to a culture where leadership is persuasive instead of directive;
leverage your talents to climb the corporate ladder.
Youll also get a variety of tools in the appendixes, including a transition self-assessment, a transition task list, a job-hunting process for the military mind, and a transition checklist.
As a veteran, you know you can see tasks through to completion and exhibit strong leadership skills and professionalism, but its not always easy to translate these skills into a civilian world. Take the first step in becoming your own commander, and get an action plan to successfully navigate Transitions.
