Military Officer Resume — Frequently Asked Questions
How do I translate military rank and roles for a civilian resume?
Replace rank titles and acronyms with civilian equivalents in parentheses, e.g. "Company Commander (managed 120 personnel and $3M in equipment, equivalent to a mid-level operations manager).".
Should I list my security clearance level?
Yes, an active or recently held security clearance is a valuable, hard-to-obtain credential — state the level clearly, as it can be a deciding factor for defense-adjacent civilian roles.
