The Military Executive Transition (MET) seminar is a virtual workshop conducted over two half-days and geared toward preparing transitioning servicemembers, veterans, military spouses, and surviving spouses for professional civilian careers. The workshop focuses on key aspects of a successful military-to-civilian transition and on veterans and military spouses seeking advancement in their civilian careers.

The interactive seminar includes:

• Insight on how to build a stronger and broader network to accelerate your job search.
• Strategies for using recruiters and executive search firms.
• Help with self-marketing tools including your résumé and LinkedIn profile.
• An overview of your TRICARE and VA benefits.
• Interview preparation and best practices for salary and benefits negotiations.
• An opportunity to practice your 30-second elevator pitch and participate in a mock interview.

The workshop concludes with a popular panel of successfully transitioned senior officers and talent acquisition professionals from a range of industries and sectors who share their experiences and insights.
