Federal Resumes and Military Transitions   by Barbara Adams


Federal Resumes and Military Transitions are very different from each other. Which one do I need or do I need both?

A Federal Resume is the most important document for starting or advancing your federal government career. A Federal Resume is different from a private-industry resume because it is typically longer and contains some basic "compliance" information required by government personnel. It is a critical marketing presentation, career summary, and personal presentation. It is not just an outline of your jobs and dates. It is a carefully focused, well-written, clearly organized and professionally presented career package that can help you win jobs and earn promotions. The Federal Resume utilizes a reverse-chronological format (most recent positions first) and could range from two to ten pages. Federal resumes are strategically developed to incorporate the all important key words and core competencies that you take you to the top of the qualification selection.

Military Transition Resumes translate your military experience to relevant opportunities in the civilian marketplace. It is a much shorter document - limited to a two page resume, cover letter, and list of references. As a member of the Military, you have gained a wealth of experience, training, and education. You are qualified to work in a variety of civilian and contractor positions, both as a team member and a leader. For a Military Transition resume, we review your military background and match your skills and experience to civilian job requirements and of course "LISTEN" and conform to your career marketing goals. We translate ranks, titles, jargon, missions, and acronyms, allowing corporate employers to understand your career history. We review your duties and accomplishments, creating an individualized, dynamic package that highlights how the skills you obtained in the military translate to civilian workplaces. In other words, we enlighten the civilian hiring managers and ensure they understand the "VALUE" you bring to their organization.

We provide numerous resume articles and resources to help you better understand the military transition process and various terms and definitions. If you have any additional questions, please feel free to contact us or visit anyone of our websites listed below.
