I have a couple of electronics job interviews and wonder if I should wear my military dress uniform. Trops, bravos or some dress clothes.Should I wear my military dress uniform to a job interview?All services' uniform regulations forbid the wear of the uniform to further one's private business or employment interests. It's also against the Joint Ethics Regulation.
You're going as yourself, not as Sergeant or Petty Officer Whomever. Wear a civilian suit.Should I wear my military dress uniform to a job interview?
No, wear a suit. When you interview you should try to match the environment.Should I wear my military dress uniform to a job interview?If your interviewer is a female, then YES!
No you can not do that. What the hell is wrong with you?Should I wear my military dress uniform to a job interview?noShould I wear my military dress uniform to a job interview?
dress for the job you want, not the job you have- so no.
are you still in the military? if so then hell yeah! if not then hell no!Should I wear my military dress uniform to a job interview?
If it is not a military job, then do not wear the uniform. As a recruiter, I know that some employers have concerns that former military might have issues adjusting to a non-military workplace culture. (Personally, I feel that the military experience is an asset--I feel it is more likely that they are timely and reliable).
If you wear the uniform to a non-military interview, they might think that you're having trouble letting go of the military.
I'd wear dress slacks and a dress shirt. Maybe a tie....
yup i heard your not aloud to wear your uniform in public or youll get in trouble
Don't wear the uniform. What you wear should be suited to the type of job you are seeking. Don't wear a uniform, don't over dress, and good luck!
If you are no longer in the military it would be inappropriate to wear your uniform under those circumstances. To a military type gathering (VFW or funeral of a fellow soldier) then yes, job interview no.
yeah, that would be totally creepy.
Nope...your resume should list your military experience
if you think it will help get the job, why not?
just be prepared for dumb political questions
I CHANGE MY ANSWER, GO WITH BILL'S BELOW.
If it has nothing to do with your military services then no. I would just wear a your typical business suit. They will see and note your military skills and knowledge in your resume

How hard is it to be a military girlfriend?
I have been with my boyfriend for 3 years now, he is joining the navy to be a corpsman. Im pretty sad about it, we have been together almost every single day since we got together. We do have plans to get married in a few years (just to make sure long distance will work for us) How difficult is it to maintain a long distance relationship with someone in the military and what is the best way to let him know you support him in every way. If you have ever been in the military what was the best thing to hear or get from your sweetie back home? Thanks in advance!!How hard is it to be a military girlfriend?Its going to take a strong woman to be a military wife and I am sure you could handle it.Just remember:
1.Your boyfriend needs 100% of your support.
a.He needs your letters
b.He needs to smell your perfume
c.He needs to feel you need him
d.He needs to know you love him unconditionally
2.You have to remember he is military owned.He eats,drinks,and pisses military and you have to understand that.
3.You must not be selfish,let him know what goes on at home but dont burden him with idle petty b.s that could upset him.
4.Trust him,he is not screwing anyone,if you dont hear from him for a while,it is his job not a girlfriend.
AND MOST OF ALL FROM ALL OF US,THANK YOU FOR SUPPORTING HIM AND THANK HIM FOR PROTECTING US.GOD BLESS YOU BOTH.How hard is it to be a military girlfriend?
wtf. why did "vuezta" sound like he was emotionally attached to a man in the uniform?? don't ask don't tell!
Military spouses are the glue that hold the military together. They have to go thru long periods of being with out their loved ones, but as the old saying goes, they keep the home fires burning. Its not an easy life being a military spouse, but its a good one. As for the long distance, If the relations ship is strong, the it will survive. I have been away for a year at a time, we are able to communicate on a regular basis, plus there is great support systems in the service. Wives get together and support them selves and there is good websites that you can utilize as well. It will work, but you both have to make it work.. You will be fine if you have faith and good friends.
I dated someone who was in the military. We both met right before he had to go into basic training. It was hard cuz he really couldn't call or talk much and was hard on both of us.
Really, long distance relationships aren't for everyone. They are tough to work at and you and your boyfriend wont get to see each other that often. He will get leave after basic training but not for that long. It does take work on both of you and a lot of things will change. He will change and so will you. If you both want the relationship to work, you both have to put some effort in it.
Unfortunately, with me, when I dated someone who was in the service, we ended up losing contact somehow and I guess going our own ways. We have no hard feelings towards each other and sometimes I think what life may be like now if we were still together.How hard is it to be a military girlfriend?veryHow hard is it to be a military girlfriend?
Well if you want me to tell you what you WANT to hear...
Everything is going to be great and he will write you and call you every chance that he gets....
But, if you want me to be honest....
He is going to change A LOT. Everyone does. He will start seeing things and going places that he has never been before. He is going to meet a lot of new people and have a completely different life.
Being in the military changes your entire way of thinking. I am not saying that it is NOT going to work...I just know from experience that the deck is stacked against you.
If you get married fairly quickly once he gets out of bootcamp....maybe...but a couple years?? That's a long time.
its hard very hard to be in love with a military man. you will still love him but soon, your needs are gonna come crying. you will need someone whos there for you, emotionally and physically. good luck.How hard is it to be a military girlfriend?
Any long distance relationship is difficult but not impossible. It will take both of you to make it work.
It's not hard if you're adaptable and loyal and can trust your partner. Likewise, if you are those things, especially the loyal and trusting part, those are some of the best ways to show your support for your service-member. When they know you're okay, even if they're gone, and they know that you're not screwing around, they can focus more on their jobs and doing their best. Showing support takes a lot more than sticking a ribbon magnet to your car.
If you're used to him being around constantly, you're bound to have some adjustment issues, but if you (both) care enough, you'll get through it.
My husband and I just had our 6th anniversary in August and he'll hit his 7 year mark in the Army in March. It hasn't exactly been a pleasure cruise, that's for sure, but you learn to go with it and to change where needed.
it is hard,, because there alot of family separations involved and alot of moving a deploying.
thankfully the military have personnel that will help family members as much as they can go through deployments and family separations.
i am currently in the military with my girlfriend of a little over 4 years living in another state that is not nearby. IF WE can stay together this long without seeing each other make it through 3 deployments. I honestly think if the 2 of you really want to be with one another it will work
It depends on you, are you comfortable with being away from him for long periods of time? do you trust him? and how do you feel about moving around alot? These are all things you should look at, weigh the pros and cons, you should decided which is more important and how much you love him. Would you go to the end of the universe and back? If so love can over come anything

How hard is it to be a military girlfriend?I am surprised that no one has attacked your question yet. I have been in the military for 21 years. What I can tell you is that this decision is a good one over all. If you are planning to get married, the military lifestyle provides great stability, the pay is not as good as one would get on the outside, money wise, but the Medical benefits are excellent. the money gets better as time goes on.Military spouses are the glue that hold the military together.

What branch of the military will space warships be under?
I'm pretty sure everyone has seen a sci-fi movie or read a book where there vessels in space designed for war in space and they are most commonly under the United States Navy simply because the space "ships" have a lot in common with Naval Ships on the ocean. But isn't the Airforce the branch in control of space warfare? So in the future, if we did create space warfare vessels, what branch in the military should they be under?What branch of the military will space warships be under?An interesting question. One that we have talked about on a slow shift in the middle of the night. I work in a Joint organization, so we have all the services on a shift, with a variety of opinions.
Our consensus is that it will be a Navy-style force, maybe not part of the Navy, but one organized as a naval force.
The Navy comes with a doctrine that, with modifications for whatever craft will be used, already supports what we think of as space-based operations.
The Navy also has a tradition and history that supports the sort of long-distance, single-command, no-higher support that was common in the pre-instant communications Navy, and will likely be the norm in a space-based force.
As long as we have an "Air" Force, or even "Aerospace" Force, it will be wedded to planetary operationsWhat branch of the military will space warships be under?
The Air Force. Click on "It's not Science Fiction" at the bottom of the web page at the following link.....
http://www.airforce.com/opportunities/of鈥?/a>
.....and then, click on "Space Command" which is the second image to appear on the screen. From there click on the small concentric circle at the bottom of the page. It will move to the center of the page. Each of the blue links of the circle is an embedded link. Watch the "Space Command Commercial."
Good Luck!What branch of the military will space warships be under?Considering that what you're suggesting may not come out for hundreds of years at a minimum; nobody can even give an educated guess. For all we know, they may develop an all-new branch, or they may combine the current branches. We can worry about that when it happens, which will probably be long after your great, great, great grandchildren have already grown old and died.
The most likely possibility is the militarization of the space program and the creation of a new "branch" that would be organized like the Navy, but made up of mostly civilian personnel and former Air Force members.What branch of the military will space warships be under?US Space Command Aurora Space Fleet... The secret space program...What branch of the military will space warships be under?
I think at that point all of the branches would have merged into one super space branch and all training will be the same and what not...
It would have to be a new branch.
The Galactical Fury.What branch of the military will space warships be under?
New Branch: Maybe USSF, United States Space Force....somethin like that
NASA
One yet to exist.
What's the point of this question?
didn't you hear? they cut NASA spending. so bye bye to that

What is the best military branch to join for a high school gradute who want to become a nurse?
I didn't graduate high school yet it's my last year and i'm not to sure which military service to go into.What is the best military branch to join for a high school gradute who want to become a nurse?As much as I don't really care for the chair force it's probally the best they have a program for nurses were you can become an officer through it. I would check that out for sure, but don't go in for medical services that mos field is a joke.What is the best military branch to join for a high school gradute who want to become a nurse?
Join the Reserves or Guard of some branch or another. That way you can work towards earning your nursing degree while you serve part time. Once you become a full nurse, you can go Active Duty if you want. If you go Active Duty first, you won't have much time for college courses. You might get through a few, and you can always use the GI Bill after serving three or four years on Active Duty. You can get there, it's just a slower path.What is the best military branch to join for a high school gradute who want to become a nurse?None, the military does not train people to be Nurses.

What branch of the Military is best for staying in one spot and not transferring?
I am trying to figure this out; and I'd like to join the military, but i have a plan with several friends after high school to go to college for a few (4-5 tops) after high school. And id like to not be moving around as when i do get a family, I dont want to give them the trouble im facing of losing friends every 4 sometimes 2 years.What branch of the Military is best for staying in one spot and not transferring?Salvation Army.
ten bucks says your 'Plans" will change within a year of graduating high school.
the world does not end if you PCS. they have these wonderful things called phones, and internet now that allows you to keep in touch with friends and family no matter where you are.What branch of the Military is best for staying in one spot and not transferring?
It's very unlikely you'd be able to find a branch or even job that wouldn't require you to travel at all. I think you can do reserves and drill, and not move around much though. If you go full active duty you'll probably end up traveling, that's all there is to it really. I mean you could shoot for a branch that has bases near you and then hope for the best, but that's kind of like playing the lottery and most likely against your odds.What branch of the Military is best for staying in one spot and not transferring?Reserves is the role you may deploy but you will be stationed in one place, the other option is once in the reserves switch to active reserves. You are a reservist that works and retires like active duty, you work full time to support the rest of the reservists.What branch of the Military is best for staying in one spot and not transferring?
Your only option to not move alot of to join the Guard or the Reserves instead of going Active Duty.What branch of the Military is best for staying in one spot and not transferring?border patroljdm used boats

If Obama cuts the military wont it make the unemployment rate reach higher levels than it already is?
Young men and women with families won't be able to find jobs!
Their children will live in poverty... Is this the way our veterans should live? NO WAY!! Cutting the Military size is going to reek havoc in the US! On top of what already going on!If Obama cuts the military wont it make the unemployment rate reach higher levels than it already is?Thats an excellent point, never thought of that. If he sends 40,000 troops overseas he`s essentially creating 40,000 jobs. In reality it may be only 10,000 if only 10,000 out of the 40,000 trops are not employed. But if they pull out of the war they will be creating a massive amount of unemployment....I never though tof it that way.If Obama cuts the military wont it make the unemployment rate reach higher levels than it already is?The president really doesn't have as much power as one would think. The house and senate vote on just about everything before it becomes official. You see how often they all disagree with stuff and how drawn out it can be.If Obama cuts the military wont it make the unemployment rate reach higher levels than it already is?What does it matter? If they are in the military, it's your tax dollars that are paying their salaries. Even if half of them wind up unemployed, we'll save a lot of money.

You'll be required to research the patent.How do I find out if the military as already been presented with a weapon idea?First of all Mr. "I have a doctorate in knowledge" you are an idiot. Obviously this person KNOWS he needs to contact the military. Hes asking HOW. You cant just look up US Military in the yellowpages.
