Career Transition Program

Building your next career after military service

The move from military service to a civilian career is a big one, and it should not be one you make alone. The USA Cares Career Transition Program helps post-9/11 veterans, service members and their families turn the leadership, technical and interpersonal skills they built in uniform into a career that fits.

We work with you one on one to prepare for the hiring process, sharpen your resume, practice interviews and match your real strengths to real openings. We also connect qualified candidates directly with corporate partners who are hiring and who value military experience.

When a certification or short training program is the only thing standing between you and a new role, USA Cares may provide short-term financial support so you can focus on the work ahead instead of the bills in front of you.
