Will the coming year be your last in uniform? Are you already in the civilian sector and in need of a push toward long-held career goals, or simply considering a career change?
If so, consider joining MOAA’s trusted team of transition experts for one of our upcoming Military Executive Transition (MET) seminars. In 2023, we hosted 119 professionals at seven events – one-day gatherings at MOAA’s Alexandria, Va., headquarters as well as two-day virtual events for attendees worldwide.
[REGISTER TODAY: Jan. 17-18 Virtual MET]
The interactive seminar begins with an instructional block on how to activate a resilient mindset that will serve you throughout the ups and downs of your transition (and any other life circumstance!). Attendees then receive tips on how to:
- Build a stronger and broader network to accelerate your job search.
- Maximize your self-marketing tools, including your résumé and LinkedIn profile.
- Prepare for your next interview, or your next salary and benefits negotiation.
You will also have the chance to practice your 30-second elevator pitch and participate in a mock interview. The workshop concludes with a popular panel of successfully transitioned officers and professionals from a range of industries and sectors who share their experiences and insights.
“The biggest challenge is not knowing our full potential beyond the uniform,” Capt. Laura Hatcher, USN (Ret), a MOAA member who launched a successful photography business, shared during a recent MET. “Take time to introduce yourself to yourself. Learn what you have a passion for."
