The Military’s Invisible Occupation

In the civilian workforce, those tasked with leading teams to accomplish work that produces unique results, goods, services, and capabilities during temporary endeavors for stakeholders are called project managers.

And this very definition of a project is the same definition for a military mission; a temporary endeavor undertaken to produce unique goods, services, results, or capabilities.

That means that regardless of what a military member’s formal military occupation is, if they’re leading and directing missions, they have massive amounts of experience running projects, which is in extremely high demand in the civilian workforce.

Especially when it’s presented in project management terminology on a resume, and certified by an independent third party organization. PMI’s PMP helps military veterans do that in the civilian workforce. The Project Management Professional certification conveys to hiring managers that you have credible project management experience. Then add to that all of the highly desirable soft skills military veterans developed becoming leaders, and your “invisible” secondary MOS of “project manager” can help you land a meaningful, lurcrative post-Service career.
