I hate to be the bearer of bad news, but your transition from the military to the civilian sector is not a date, an event or single occurrence. It s a process laborious and challenging, enlightening and wonderful, that will happen over and over throughout your next career.
As adults, we transition in our jobs, relationship status (spouse, parent, child, sibling, ex-partner), community and focus. Today, you may be exiting your career in the military and moving into a private-sector job. Later, you may move into entrepreneurship, higher education or a different job.
