Team! Need your help here.
My goal is to interview as many vets as possible in various career fields. This info will help transitioning vets learn about different careers from those who made the journey. I will then post to 1vet2another.com
With that, I have 12 questions to ask. What do you think of these questions? Is anything missing? Would each of these questions offer valuable insight to a vet interested in learning about different roles, careers, and industries?
1. How did your military background help your career so far? Did it make anything more difficult?
2. What does a typical day consist of in your job role?
3. How did you find and apply for this job role?
4. What kind of education, training or experiences does your job role require?
5. What advice or steps would you recommend for veterans preparing to enter your career field?
6. What do you enjoy the most about your career field?
7. What do you like least about your career field?
8. What skills and personal attributes are essential to success in this career field?
9. Is there something you wish you’d known or a skill you wish you’d had starting out in this career field?
10. How do most people get into this career field? What are common entry-level jobs?
11. What do you like about your industry?
12. How do you see your industry changing in the next 10 years?
