I am a recently departed Gunner's Mate Second Class and I would like to continue to work with weapons in a civilian job, however other then law enforcement, I have no idea where to start. Can any one help guide me in the right direction?

PS, federal jobs are good too, but still cop-like.

Are you good around children? If so, please email me: markeecuevas1231@gmail.com

Only if you would be interested in becoming a part of a new branch of police force, reserved for veterans specifically and also for currently serving troops.

Good luck!

With your military background, you may want to consider federal employment.

1. You receive a preference during the hiring process (for most applications);
2. You can buy back your time towards retirement.

My company provides free resume critiques to all military service members. You can submit your resume to us via email or by using our secure online submission form:

Please allow 3-5 business days for completion.

We use two different formats for corporate and federal applications. I can send you examples of each to get you started.

Hi, thanks for your service! Try www.usajobs.gov. That is where I started when I got home. It has something new every week. USPS posts their own jobs at www.usps.com. There are several companies throughout the US who build custom weapons who seek experienced personnel like you. I hope this is helpful. Please let me know if you need help in your career search.

Darrell: Are there manufacturing companies that you might also wish to seek out? Also for small business - firing ranges (perhaps opening your own). Weapons training & safety programs? Just some thoughts. Good Luck!
