Veteran Career Resources

The Office of Career Education proudly supports Marshall University’s student veterans as they transition from military to civilian careers. Your service has built valuable skills—leadership, teamwork, problem-solving—that employers actively seek. We’re here to help you translate your experience, explore career paths, and connect with employers who value your military background.

Meet one-on-one with a career coach to:

• Translate military experience into civilian language for resumes and interviews

• Explore career fields that align with your skills and goals

• Learn how to highlight leadership, discipline, and adaptability

• Identify employers with veteran hiring initiatives
