150 Best Jobs Through Military Training
|
By Laurence Shatkin, Ph.D.
This new book is ideal for anyone who is considering military service, who is soon to be discharged, who has served in the military, or who advises people on military service.
Which military jobs lead to the best civilian careers? The book covers 75 military occupations and their 150 best civilian counterparts for a total of 225 detailed job descriptions and 45 best jobs lists.
The "best civilian jobs" lists are organized by pay, growth, openings, part-time work, self-employment, gender, interest, and personality type. Bonus lists reveal the top 20 occupations held by veterans and the top 20 fields in which veterans work.
The civilian job descriptions include pay, growth through 2014, annual openings, tasks, personality type, interest area, skills needed, work environment, and the military job that provides training for it.
The military job descriptions include information on tasks, service branches that offer the job, whether it is an officer or an enlisted job, the specific work training provided, helpful personal attributes, helpful school subjects, personality type (RIASEC interest code), physical demands, work environment, opportunities for the job in the military, and the civilian jobs it trains for.
An overview explains why the military can be a good place to learn skills, how recruits are placed in military jobs, and what to say to recruiters. Also discussed are enlisted versus officer jobs, the military lifestyle, the Armed Services Vocational Aptitude Battery (ASVAB), the RIASEC interest codes, how the G.I. bill works for service members who want additional education, and much more.
