Getting that Federal Job out of the Service is Harder than Some Think.
Kristal made sure she had everything smoothed out and worked with a fellow Veteran at SSV to ensure she reached her transition goals.
Q: What were the biggest challenges you faced in looking for a job after leaving the military?
A: “Understanding the job market and how competitive it is.”
Kristal came to Still Serving Veterans with a challenge and a goal. The challenge laid out above and the goal of working within the federal government oftentimes lead Veterans and transitioning service members to SSV.
“SSV understands the difficulty transitioning service members face getting into civil employment. The mentorship, guidance and support from SSV was a light in a dark employment situation for me,” said Kristal.
Between gaining better insight into the civilian job market, SSV was able to to connect Kristal with Veteran hiring events and job leads all while ensuring her resume was optimized for the job she wanted.
“I was able to attain suitable employment opportunities that led to a federal civilian position,” said Kristal.
