Gerald, Thank you for serving!

I don't know whether you are planning on seeking a Civil Service position or moving into the corporate world but there is a big difference in what your resume should look like. I have sent you some information on both types of resumes.

I would be more than happy to look at your resume if you would like and included my email addresses in the email.

A book I would highly recommend is "Headhunter" Hiring Secrets: The Rules of the Hiring Game Have Changed . . . Forever! by Skip Freeman. Full disclosure he is a recruiter for mechanical and chemical engineers, a veteran, former classmate and friend. If that raises any concerns check out the reviews before you purchase it. Available at Amazon.

Good Luck!!!
