It is never too early to start thinking about your military to civilian transition. For transitioning Military Officers, you can start as early as a year out - developing your social media presence, networking, and staying connected. Between a year and six months, you can use this time to tailor your resume, practice interviewing, and consider your career options. Around four months out from separation, you'll start actively interviewing for positions. Read more about our Military Officer Transition Timeline.
