Here's why clients with military experience choose us:

• Rich expertise - all resume writers have 1+ years of experience with resumes or as HR managers;
• Professional formats - we use proven resume formats that work best for career transition;
• Knowledge of military occupational specialties - we understand military jargon and specializations;
• Personalized process - the writer works one-on-one with you until you are satisfied.

• Pahraphrase all military jargon. Whether you worked in air force intelligence, navigation or as a government contractors, jargon probably sounds natural to you. However, jargon and military acronyms like SNOIC, 2MarDiv or AAA may be not familiar to a civilian hiring manager. Such specific language needs paraphrasing in more general terms.
• Target a specific position. Generic resumes don't bring much results in job search. Military resume writers recommend that you write with a specific type of position in mind. This includes using keywords, emphasizing skills which are important for this type of position, and downplaying military knowledge which is less relevant.
• Give figures and tangible results. When it's possible, support your job descriptions with figures and provide context. Specify how many people you managed, what kind of problems solved, which process improved, etc. Employers are more likely to consider a resume that displays specific examples of success rather than a generic one.
• Keep the job descriptions concise. Whether you worked in Marine Corps or Army, remember that in civilian resumes it isn't mandatory to list your job duties in full. Only include the descriptions relevant to your desired position. Therefore, the document will come out shorter which is also a plus for a private sector resume.

• Use an attractive format and layout. Visual appearance matters for civilian resumes, so use the font which is easy to read, organize content in a chronological order and keep the document to 1-2 pages. Format the sections consistently, and use some color to emphasize the most important points or to divide different sections.
• Use a professional email. Your email address should consist of your first and second name, career coaches recommend. An unprofessional email is more likely to be rejected by hiring managers. Check the accuracy of the phone number and other contact details so that the company would easily reach you.
• Emphasize security clearances. Your security clearances can be valuable for security and law enforcement jobs, therefore, it's important to mention it. Don't go into much detail - just specify the level of clearance. Even if the job posting doesn't require security clearance, it's a plus anyway as it shows the employer that you can be trusted private information.
