Below is some information on the career transition programs available to
graduates through the West Point Association of Graduates.
If you need
assistance tailoring your résumé, we have some résumé samples posted on our
website in the Career Services area: http://www.westpointaog.org/page.aspx?pid=732.
See the menu at right (career correspondence), there are some résumé writing
tips and some sample résumés for grads in various stages of their
career.
The Service Academy Business Resource Directory- www.isabrd.com<http://www.isabrd.com>
is an excellent business-to-business and career transition source. It contains
contact and business information submitted by over 49,000 graduates. iSABRD
provides a way for those in need of certain services in a geographical area
(relocation questions, finding a physician, attorney, etc.), those hiring or
seeking a job etc., an easy and efficient way to find one of their own. The
majority of grads are willing to assist with career transition opportunities.
You can search for grads working in businesses in the area you are living or in
an industry you would like more information on and get in contact with them
about opportunities. It is free to create your profile and search the entire
database. You will log in with your Cullum number and the last four digits of
your social security number.
Four times a year we host a powerful
hiring event - the Service Academy Career Conference (SACC). It is a joint job
fair exclusively for academy graduates. A great opportunity to meet face-to-face
with employers from numerous industries looking to specifically hire service
academy graduates. You can find out more information at www.sacc-jobfair.com<http://www.sacc-jobfair.com>.
SACC will give you a great indication of the types of opportunities that are
available to you now and provides the opportunity to receive your first
interview on the spot with company recruiters. I highly recommend SACC when you
searching for a new professional opportunity.
The third program
we have is Joint Service Academies Jobs Electronically - www.jsaje.com<http://www.jsaje.com>.
JSAJE is our electronic, internet based job listing and resume posting service.
You may search the job postings, apply for positions and post your résumé for
free. You can search for job postings by location, industry, position, etc.
Employers register on the site to post job opportunities and to search the
résumé database. Employers with a résumé search subscription may seek you out if
your résumé shows something that is a fit for their company as
well.
