What are Boeing military transition jobs all about?

I'm approaching the end of high school and considering a future in the military. I've heard about Boeing military transition jobs as a post-service option. Could someone explain what these roles involve and the qualifications needed?

Sure, I can definitely provide some insights. Boeing is one of the world's largest defense contractors and a significant employer of military veterans. Its military transition jobs are specifically designed for individuals who are about to leave military service or have recently left, and are looking for a civilian job.

In these roles, you’d be able to integrate your military training and skills into a civilian career. The type of work in these roles can range widely, from project management, operations, logistics, engineering, to cybersecurity, depending on your skills and the needs of the company.

In terms of qualifications, it often depends on the specific job role. Many positions would require a specific set of technical skills, specialized knowledge, or experience that you gained during your military service. For example, if you were involved in logistics in the military, you may transition into a logistics role at Boeing.

Apart from technical skills and experience, Boeing also values the soft skills you develop in the military, such as leadership, teamwork, a strong work ethic, and the ability to work under pressure, among others.

Furthermore, additional qualifications, such as a degree in a related field may be required or preferred for certain positions, especially roles at the managerial or executive level.

To get more specific information, it would be a good idea to visit Boeing’s official career page or attend one of their military transition recruiting events or job fairs. They also have a 'Veterans to Technicians' Program and 'Boeing Veteran Engagement Team', both resources specifically crafted to aid in the transition of veterans into civilian employment within the company.
