Many years ago I looked into joining the Peace Corp. Much like the military it is not as easy as you may think-you need to have some skill that they are looking for (i.e. nursing, engineering etc). also I believe you need to attend school to learn the language of the area they anticipate sending you to and must have at least a rudimentary grasp of this language. Also I would hope you are intending to complete what ever military service obligation you agreed to prior to attempting such a move!

Yes I do plan on completing it. I just need a job and figured the Peace Corps could help.

Good to hear that-Thank you for your service to your Country-Good luck in finding a job-One advantage to the Reserves I've found is that you may be able to network with others to find a job, you may also want to see if your Unit has any extra days they could use you. This of course is all contingent on you being in good standing and well thought of by your Unit's command.
