Transitioning to civilian life is challenging, and the current Transition Assistance Program (TAP) isn’t setting you up for success. TAP assumes the military and private sector environments are similar, encouraging service members to translate skills, network, and create a resume. While these steps are helpful, they don’t address the fundamental differences between the two environments, leaving many unprepared for the private sector.
The result? A lack of awareness and delayed action that can hinder your success.
Recognizing the Gaps
The key to preparing for post-military life starts with acknowledging that the military and private sector are fundamentally different. In the military, the mission comes first, competition is nonexistent, and budgets are spent rather than earned. In contrast, the private sector thrives on competition, revenue generation, and adaptability. These differences create gaps in skills and mindsets that need to be addressed for a successful transition.
