After completing military service, veterans can have a difficult time
finding employment when returning to civilian life. Out of Uniform,
Second Edition is designed to help all transitioning military
personnel, regardless of service, branch, rank, rating, time in service,
time in grade, or specialty. Although all service members share common
denominators, each individual brings something unique to the job market.
Not only does this book cover the basics--search techniques, networking,
interview preparation, résumés, negotiation, and a new chapter on social
media--it also offers guidance on topics that are often overlooked,
specifically the central issues of self-knowledge, interviewing empathy,
and the power of questions.
In addition to the technical guidance, readers will also discover
important information in the anecdotes based on the experiences of
soldiers, sailors, air force personnel, and marines. Out of Uniform,
Second Edition is an invaluable resource for veterans who want to make
the most out of their civilian career opportunities.
