Marisol Maloney, a military veteran and recruiter, highlights the common disconnect between the skills federal workers possess and how these are portrayed on their résumés. She observes a noticeable rise in professionals seeking help as many federal employees recently faced layoffs. Maloney's insights stem from her experience in rewriting poorly constructed résumés and her own transition from military to technical recruitment. She advises those transitioning to clarify and communicate their skill sets effectively in corporate language, ultimately helping them succeed in job applications.
"Many veterans and federal workers possess valuable skills but often fail to communicate them effectively. I encourage them to understand their skills and how to represent them."
"Transitioning from military to corporate requires adapting language and format for résumés. Simply listing accomplishments isn't enough; you have to speak the corporate language to stand out."
