I have enlisted as a 46s and will be shipping this May. I chose national guard because I do want to pursue a career and work for specific companies in my industry.

I would like to know if National Guard has a reliable career services that can help in networking with other companies? Another question, are soldiers from AIT able to intern to civilian companies?

You can intern with civilian companies. However I am assuming you mean after you graduate from AIT. As for career services, your state may have some programs but I wouldn't expect a lot. If you know what you want to do see how your current skills stack up and work on your short comings. I would start with your states education office to see what kind of programs they offer. They may offer some vocational or internship programs that will help with your future goals. Good Luck!
