The right wording...

I recently had the opportunity to help a friend with her resume. She is retiring after 20 years of USAF service, and was perplexed at where to begin. I completely understand her hesitation, as she's been out of the "civilian work world" for so long. I was priviledged to help her break down the jargon and terminology into more friendly words.
I feel blessed to help her go into a new life with her kids and wish her the best success at finding a job that makes her happy! Good luck, Melle!
That brings me to this advice: don't get caught up in all the jargon. Be yourself, shine bright, and help others to see how important of a person you are and the difference you can make.
