My Career Goal

I chose the Coast Guard for my military choice. The Coast Guard was established on August 4, 1790. The Coast Guard has a large difference compared to other military branches, the Coast Guard is directly related to Homeland Security, which means they also protect and look out for attacks and terrorism attempts against the country. There are many different careers inside the Coast Guard such as pilot, flight crew, medical staff, navel officers and many more. The career I would be most interested in would be a navel officer. Their main jobs are to control the rest of the crew on deck. The Coast Guard is in charge of the safety of the coast and the guarding all of the waters surrounding us. Anyone attempting to join Coast Guard must be able to

deal more than I need to learn before I can achieve my dream of building a business in the Asia

My father swayed me to rethink my MOS choice and instead pick an MOS that is transferable to the civilian world, in case I decided to get out. I reported into Parris Island for boot camp on September 9th, 2014. I was in Delta Company starting out and graduated as a Marine on the 11th of December. That was the most important day in my life up to that point. I later went to Marine Combat Training on Camp Geiger. Which is also where I found out what my MOS was going to be. The administrative marines told me I was going to be a Maintenance Management Specialist. My buddies and I at the time thought that meant I was going to be a janitor. That was not a happy moment. Until later on when I made my way over to Camp Johnson for my school house as a 0411. I graduate from the School house as a PFC on May 8th, 2015 and arrived in my current duty station and command. Being Camp Lejeune, 2nd Maintenance Battalion, Electronics Maintenance Company

I learned a sense of pride and that I had to work hard in order to be a productive citizen in this country (lessons that I seek to teach to my own children). So at the age of 15 I started working part-time at various restaurants after school and all those long weekends with my father restoring the cars that he purchased to repair and resale. As I reached high school graduation, I did not have much help preparing for life after high school. I was not given information on finding work, much less advice on attending college and how to succeed there. I stumbled through a year of community college thinking I wanted to be a commercial pilot and working midnight to 6am. After a year of this and having earned a private pilots license, I decided to join the Marine Corps to be an Amphibious Reconnaissance Marine. It was the best decision that I could have

In five years I see myself as either a Sargent or Corporal in the United States Marine Corps. Being 22 years old I will be in the first year of my second enlistment providing that I do not get NJP’d (non-judicial punishment) or something else dumb that I might get myself into. I look forward to joining the Marine Corps because of my long family military history and my extent of being a child of a military father. I plan on either being in the MOS (military occupational service) 1142 or 1345. I see myself having a degree by the end of those five years from online schooling while overseas on deployment or at my current duty station. Providing that I am a Sargent I will send in a request form in to become a DI (drill instructor) and then hopefully

This choice crossed my mind on my thirteenth birthday when my mom asked me where I was going to college at. I then told her I wasn’t going to school after high school. My dad proceeded to say, “How the hell are you going to make a living without going to college?” That’s when, just a shot out of the dark, I randomly said “I’m going to be a marine.” That’s

My second goal specifically is to get a position in the human resources department with my current employer within the next six months. Gaining a position in the human resources department puts me one step closer to achieving my long-term goal of becoming a human resource manager. The goal is measurable because I plan to apply to any position I see posted in the human resources department that interest me and align with my professional goals. The goal is attainable because I have access to our job postings website and I plan to check this website for updates at least twice per week. This is a reasonable goal because I sometimes have downtime at work, which would allow me to use that time to search for new postings and even apply. This goal is time-bound because I gave myself a deadline of six months to achieve it. With my updated resume, experience and now my current course of study at Western Governors University, it makes me a desirable candidate for a position in HR.

1. Identify your career and why you chose it. My Career is The Marines Most specifically on marine snipers.

I have always been a person who loves to work with their hands. I’ve learned that I gain more knowledge when things are put out for examination or hands-on work. Therefore, I enjoy mechanical things like engineering or one can even say construction. Also, I get a kick out of brain teasers. Work that is easy isn't beneficial to me or anyone. Challenge is what the Marine Corps offers, which differentiates one from the rest of the population. I aim to be a leader and role model for the future generations to come. The Marine Corps gives you this skill and much more. My future career for sure will for sure begin in the military as I plan to choose small arms repairmen. This course of actions will help me start a career in mechanical engineering as working with weapons of many sizes and calibers is complicated hands-ons labor. I can start in the Marine Corps as they allow me to work and learn progressively on expensive hardware. I could hopefully use the 4+ years in service as a stepping stone into what I plan as a successful

The United States Marine Corps recruiter may not have promised me a rose garden, but she did say my time in the service would help me become a more productive member of society; she was not lying. The Marine Corps provided 13 years of varied job experience that would not have been obtainable as a civilian. Although I developed many skills while serving in the military, I believe integrity, accountability, and a positive work ethic were the most important at preparing me for my role in the private sector.

I have had the opportunity in the military to develop a diverse range of career skills and work experience. Upon entering the military, I knew I had one goal, and that was to help Soldiers, Sailors, Marines, and Airmen. After graduation from residency in 2010, I had many incredible opportunities

and long-suffering sacrifice. Many have joked that the Marine Corps is not a military branch but

There are many career fields available to young adults in the United States of America, some of which include the military. The Marines is a great career field because people can apply themselves in a structured environment gaining self respect along with learning skills that will help them later in life. Specifically, the Marines are a proud organization that celebrates their history, uniforms, as well as their principals and values.

The future is a time or a period of time in which we follow through from the moment of speaking or writing our intentions. It is a time that has yet still to come. The future is what we work for, to go through school and have a career, in order to have a better life. My parents have taught me to work hard for the things I want, and I wish to have a bright future. That is one of the reasons why I am here at CI, to get an education that will help me find a career with sufficient salary that will support me and my future family.
