Have you had multiple jobs since leaving service? What were they?

Only one company so far.
I came back from the war in Jan 2006 and I was extremely lucky to meet with a hiring agency called Aerotek. A few months later Aerotek got me a temp to hire job at an Engineering firm in Portland, Oregon as a CAD drafter. I worked for that company for 10 years and worked my way up from a engineering detailer position to a coordinator/supervisory role. I recently quit back in Dec 2016 due to exhaustion because I was working a lot of overtime (and health issues). I have been unemployed since and just trying to get my head together. I'm not good at resumes or selling my self at job fairs, so a hiring agency like Aerotek was the perfect fit. Plus they did all the leg work to get me an interview. However I must give a huge thanks to SSG Jordan for his character reference, wherever he is now. A military background is a big perk on a resume but having a military reference is absolutely huge. I'm slowly running out of money and will have to return to the workforce soon. I also still need to complete my bachelors degree too so I'm trying to find a job in the evenings.

Advise for keeping employment
The same work ethic from the military applies to the civilian workforce. However do not allow management to exploit your character for weakness. Or allow yourself to be taken advantage of and don't be so willing to do everything. If you are a former junior enlisted you need to learn to break free of that mentality. You have far more say in a civilian job than in the military, do not be afraid to put yourself out there or to challenge leadership decisions. However don't be that guy who brags about their military service or hangs their medals in their cubicle. Be sensitive to your coworkers because you can't pull rank in the corporate world. Also keep your personal views in check, I know a lot prior military who say the craziest shit in front of civilians; a huge no go. Above all else, don't linger in the past, I have seen some vets allow their experiences to eat them up inside. A former battle buddy of mine lost his mind because he could not let go.

SN Vivien Roman-Hampton When I went thru Tap Class when I retired in 97 they said the old days of staying with 1 company the rest of your life are gone. You can expect to change "Occupations" 3 times and work for 5 Companies. Well Navy Crypto Tech, Network Analyst/Network Operations Specialist for Sprint and now Private Security Officer, There is My 3 Occupations. On the 4th Company Navy, H.L. Yoh (Contacted to Sprint), Sprint and Currently Allied Universal Security Services. I can tell you that if Your Over 40 Your Appeal to the Tech World is Non Existent, If You Got a Tech Job Milk it as long as You Can. Private Security is a Great Gig but doesn't Pay that Much unless You are in Management. Have Fun and Enjoy the Adventure that is Life.

Since leaving the military, I've held numerous and varied jobs. Some were temporary to keep a roof overhead until I could find something permanent, some were to gain experience, and some were intended as permanent - and not a one of them was something I ever planned to do.

Employment won't always work out how you expect, but every job gives you experience and other non-monetary benefits. Do your best at whatever you find yourself in, and don't jump in to the first "better" thing that comes along unless you are 110% certain it is your ideal employment & will work out in the long run.

Also, only one or two of my jobs have come from a traditional application & interview process. The majority have been through people who knew somebody was looking to hire. Don't be afraid to reach out.
