Do you know any "secret" job titles that veterans and transitioning service members never think of?

Ha - I remember the first time I heard "account executive" while I was transitioning out of the military, thinking it was someone in executive leadership at a customer account. Nope: AE = sales person, which can be a very valuable role for a transitioning veteran if you know how to talk to people, understand and convey real business value, and work like hell to deliver value after the sale.

That's really interesting- I had never thought about this. Great point!

I would say railroad conductor . I’ve done it for ten years now

I would say the title "Program Manager" may confuse some people. There are huge complex programs that would be awesome to manage- and there are tiny and boring programs that would be lame to manage. So if people assume one way or the other when looking at the job title, without reading about the role, they could just skip over the listing.

Great point.
