I found a place for that I am in Las Vegas so where ever you are in your state look for One stop career Center they help veterans building a resume

You can also check with a local Community College, I know at CPCC in Charlotte, the Veterans Center for Military, Veterans and Families, have connections that will help you write and set up you Resume' for the civilian world. There are several other organizations that will help also. Start with your local Veterans Service Officer, they can usually send you in the right direction.

Since there has been 61 responses so for, this may have been mentioned. But, you tailor the Resume to the job you are looking for. Best bet is to find someone that can assist you, that has gone through the job searching process, and have them help you translate your skills and accomplishments to civilian speak. A general resume will not get much attention, particularly if it is only understandable by another military person from your branch. As an example, a MOS number means nothing to me since I was Navy, as my NECs wouldn't to an Army experienced employer.

Heroes to Hired will assist for free. Another technique is to have your friends that are civilians read your resume and provide feedback on their understanding of what you have there. I chose friends in similar outside positions as I've held in the military and one's that never served. I got great feedback on and continue to get great feedback from them.

In our Veterans Career Camp program we show military/veterans how to develop a resume without the military jargon/lingo and use civilian language.

If we have spent any significant time in the military or any other organization that tends to have it's own language, we adopt a language that we use unconsciously. No matter how hard we try, we will still use jargon that we would assume that all others would understand. My suggestion is to write your initial or draft resume, and not rack your brain trying to avoid jargon or translating it into what you may think would be a layman understanding. Give your draft to a family member or friend who has not worked within your organization. As that person reads your resume, he or she will point out to you, jargon that they don't understand. Translating your jargon to them in a way that they understand what you are trying to say will help you polish your resume so that anyone reading it will know what you are conveying.

When I was teaching employers about hiring veterans, I had them use O*Net's Military Skills translator to understand military resumes. I think you could use it in reverse as well. It's been a while since I've looked at it, but if you want more info, I'd be happy to blow the dust off and see if I can help you figure it out.

This is the primary reason I established the Military Occupational Skills Conversion Institute or MOSCI to convert DD-214 entries into civilian jargon and to meet he educational requirements normally expected by employers. http://mannslogistics.wix.com/mosci. But you can search for free websites that will show you, by MOS, like this one http://www.careerinfonet.org.
