Most senior leaders separating from military service have not had to look for a job since their teenage years. Many of these experienced executives are unfamiliar with the complexities of the civilian job search and underestimate what it takes to land and retain the right position. SUCCESS IN YOUR NEW MISSION goes beyond the basics to help senior enlisted and senior officers transition more smoothly into the civilian workforce; employers, human resource directors and executive recruiters also may gain valuable insight from this book. " Terrific insight from those who have walked in your shoes. Read it." - Admiral Thad Allen, USCG (ret) Executive Vice President, Booz Allen Hamilton "Vera Steiner Blore has assembled some of the best insights into the unique challenges and opportunities faced by senior military leaders making the transition from military to civilian work life. I wish I had had this resource when I was leaving active service a few years ago." - Lt. General Guy Swan, III, USA (Ret) Vice President, Association of the U.S. Army "Some may call SUCCESS IN YOUR NEW MISSION a guide; for me, it was like reading the bible on transition. I wish this book was around when I began to think about, and plan for, life after the military." - Alford McMichael 14th Command Sergeant Major of the U.S. Marines
