As today's Air Force downsizes, thousands of officers and enlisted personnel must seek new careers outside the military. This comprehensive guide provides essential information and guidance for making that all-important career transition from the Air Force to the civilian work world. Dispelling numerous myths, the book shows how to assess skills, set goals, conduct market research, write resumes and letters, network, dress properly, interview, and negotiate salaries. Special chapters show how to use military transition services, contact military contractors and executive search firms, relocate to the right community, start a business, and conduct an electronic job search. Jam-packed with the latest information, strategies, and techniques for making a positive career transition.

Transitioning to the civilian work world is filled with challenges for over 250,000 military personnel who leave the various services each year. It's especially difficult for those who are uncertain how to clearly communicate what they do well and enjoy doing to civilian employers. Written by the authors of the popular "Corporate Gray Series" for transitioning military personnel (2.1 million copies distributed since 1998); this book provides all the necessary information for writing and distributing outstanding resumes and letters. The authors show how to produce, distribute, follow-up, and evaluate resumes and letters with maximum impact. Includes 65 key principles, a 6-step military-to-civilian language translation process, over 75 sample resume and letters, 100 top Internet employment sites, and more.
