Transitioning from military to civilian life can feel overwhelming, especially when it comes to job searching. I recently helped a veteran who struggled to translate their skills into the civilian workforce, and connecting them with a mentor made a huge difference. What strategies have you found helpful in making this shift?
I totally agree that the demand for sign language interpreters is solid, especially in education. I recently took a remote job with a similar setup and found it really flexible. Just be sure to apply quickly since these positions can get snatched up fast — like that role with BGC Interpreting.
Transitioning can be tricky, but I’d suggest seeking out industries that value military skills, like logistics or cybersecurity. It’s a bit like finding the right size uniform; sometimes it just takes a couple of tries to get it right. Have you thought about networking events or veteran job fairs, @jperez77?
