Are you in the market for a job right now? You are lucky. This is the hottest job market of the year for veterans, transitioning military members and spouses.
I know what you are thinking: If this job market is so hot, why isn’t my email burning up with invitations for an interview? Why are my applications being passed over? What am I doing wrong?
Take a knee, bud. You are not doing anything wrong. The problem is that you are not doing the right things for the civilian job market yet.
As the transition master coach for Military.com’s Veteran Employment Project, I’ve helped more than 22,000 transitioning service members, veterans and spouses find their next high-impact job. I can tell you that you are not getting job offers for one reason: You are doing what you know.
As a career military member, what you know is to look online for job listings and apply for everything you think you could do.
That isn’t how the civilian job market works, no matter what all the job boards claim. Instead, you need to be more strategic, especially if you are looking for a job that makes a difference or one in leadership and management. You need a step-by-step playbook to walk you through the plays that actually lead to a job offer. You need to jump in and operate at the professional level now if you are going to take advantage of the hottest hiring season of the year.
That’s why I put together our exclusive “Postseason Playbook.” And I made sure you could get it for free. Download our playbook and find:
I also made sure you could watch the accompanying “Postseason Playbook” master class for free to see all my additional tips.
