Are You Considering a Career as a Police Officer?

October 28, 2019 by Guest Contributor

What to Do Before Becoming a Police Officer

Working as a police officer can be a highly rewarding career that involves making a very hands-on contribution to the community. Yet, like any line of work, it carries its own set of unique challenges that need to be overcome, including confronting difficult characters, working long shifts, spending tedious hours filing paperwork, and facing plenty of competition from fellow colleagues.

With all that in mind, here are some steps that should be taken before embarking on a career in the police force to ensure that you are fully prepared for the challenges ahead.

Get the right training

It is essential that you are fully qualified, including understanding the law inside out, before becoming an officer with the police. When you are out on the field, you will need to be aware of your own rights, as well as those of the people you will be stopping, to avoid getting into difficulties further down the line.

4 Careers Where Military Training Can Offer a Powerful Advantage

March 14, 2018 by Guest Contributor

There are a variety of reasons why people join the military. For some, serving your country is their dream. For others, it is “the family business”, or they do it for the respect, or even simply through a lack of other options.  For many people it can be a great career. While many people may serve at some point, not all choose to pursue it as a lifetime career. Here are four different career options that would provide a former military member with a competitive advantage over their peers and set themselves up for success.

Law Enforcement

One field in which someone with a military background will excel is the law enforcement industry. Law enforcement professionals need to be able to handle very stressful and life-threatening situations while also being able to obey the law and their principles. All of these skills are taught in the military and someone with this background will have the mindset needed to handle these challenging situations. Furthermore, being in law enforcement is another way to serve the community and country.

Defense Contractor and Support

Another good career choice for those that have a military background would be to work for a defense contractor or manufacturer. There are thousands of defense contractors around the country, from very large such as Lockheed Martin that developed the F-22 Raptor fighter jet, to smaller companies like AvioTech Ltd., that makes components for RADAR systems. A former military member will have an in-depth knowledge of these products and could excel in consultation, technical expertise, or sales.

Business or Management Consultation

Why Criminal Justice Careers are Perfect for Military Veterans

December 12, 2017 by Tim McMahon

Most people who join the military only serve for a short amount of time. Once they have honored their commitment, many search for new careers. Veterans gain important skills throughout their service, which can be great assets in the workplace. One particularly promising choice is working in the field of criminal justice. There are certain aspects of these careers that blend very well with military experience. Here are a few reasons why a position in criminal justice may be a perfect fit.

Commitment to Serve & Protect

One of the core values of military veterans is the desire to protect our country’s rights and freedom. Our military takes great pride in its commitment to keeping citizens safe. For veterans, there is a sense of duty that does not fade over time. Fortunately, this is a vow that is also shared by the criminal justice system. Whether out in the field or working behind the scenes, you would be a part of upholding the law, which is a huge part of preserving our democracy.
