Resume Preparation and Interview Techniques

The first thing any employer or Hiring Manager looks at is an applicant’s resume. For returning veterans and their families, this can be challenging because many people in the private sector don’t understand how the vital skills that are learned in the military can be translated to a private company. In other words, if you know how to repair a tank or a helicopter, or provided security services to visiting dignitaries, or were part of a force of ground troops, how do those skills transfer to a job in your city or town?
