I am currently employed with NJVC and started in Logistics Management for the since 2012 and have just recently transferred to Configuration Management. I served 25 years active duty Air Force and retired in late 2010. I've had two careers during my time in the service. My first career was as a Cable Splicer working with copper and fiber optic cables. I've worked installing CITS projects and supported White House Comm providing circuit paths. My second career was as an ESSA Analyst supporting the OPSEC program.
As all good NCOs I was a jack of all trades, master of none. I've worked with many programs and databases to include Remedy, Oracle, Telephone Management System and countless others. I enjoy learning new programs and figuring out how they work to support their intended purpose. I have two CCAF degrees and am working on my BS Degree in Security Management through AMU. I would like to pursue a career in either IT or Logistics closer to Scott AFB, IL.

Answers to questions posed by earlier responders would be very helpful in the critique/advisory process.

PS I am fairly acronym-savvy.
John,
Thank you for your service. Before you create a resume, you have to determine what product(you are the product) you are selling. It is the applicant's responsibility to know what the buyer's need is and then create a marketing brochure (resume). What you cannot do is create a master resume that shows everything you have done and expect the buyer to figure out how to use you.
So what I am saying is you have some work to do. If I were in your shoes these are the steps I would take:
1. Determine what I have a passion for and enjoy doing (in the workplace).
2. Determine if this is a skill set that someone will pay for. That is you have to offer a product or service that someone has a need for/will buy.
3. Design a resume/marketing brochure around that that specific service/set of skills you are offering.
To determine what is in demand, you need to read the job responsibilities on the open bulletin boards like Career Builder or Monster. See what specific skill sets employers are looking for and what the title of the job is in the private sector so you can speak their language. If you do this then you resume/marketing brochure will be relevant to the buyer. You to sell to their needs not to your desires.
Hope this helps.

Hi John,
Having several people review your resume is an excellent start. I would also like to encourage you to write a non-generic cover letter for each position you plan to apply to. With that said, please feel free to send me your resume/letter. I'd be more than happy review them.
