Be Your Own Boss
Have you ever given thought to having your own business? You can - by investing in a proven franchise and living life on your terms. Approximately one in seven franchisees are veterans. There are many franchises to consider, both full and part time, covering almost every facet of American life! Franchisees benefit from being in business for themselves but not by themselves. People who like owning a franchise are typically hands-on individuals who enjoy leading a team. They thrive in a fast-paced environment that usually involves providing a service. To learn more, send an email  to franchise@CorporateGray.com, and we will connect you with a franchise coach, who can help you assess whether this option is right for you.

Transition Advice

A good resume advertises your qualifications and shows your value to prospective employers. Be sure it not only captures your key skills and accomplishments, but also illustrates what you can do for their company. Focus on your accomplishments as they relate to an employer’s needs. Show the recruiter why you are a good match and how you can fill their company's needs. Stating this first on your resume as a summary statement will get their attention. Tailor your resume to the specific job opening you are targeting. Mirror the wording of the skills and requirements on the job post. Translate into civilian terms all the military acronyms and jargon that describe your skills and accomplishments. On the home page of Corporate Gray Online, click on "MY RESUME." Under Sample Resumes, click the sample resume best matching your skills and interests. This will download that resume into a Microsoft Word document so that you can modify and save to your computer. Be sure to make your resume a solid first impression!
