Episode Synopsis

In this episode, we sit down with Navy veteran Jon Clark to talk about one of the biggest hurdles service members face after separation: translating military experience in a way that communicates the unique value add they bring to the organization. Jon served eight years as a Corpsman, stepped out of the Navy in 2018, and like many transitioning veterans, quickly realized that having the experience wasn’t the issue. Communicating it was.Jon shares how he discovered Vets2PM, the challenges he faced trying to break into project management, and the moment he realized translation was the missing link. Through resume rewrites, interview coaching, and learning how to communicate impact, he landed his first project management role and built a career that now spans construction, tech, and business transformation. Today, he leads a consulting team and helps others find their footing in the civilian world. Jon’s journey is a powerful reminder that your military skill set is valuable, and you just have to learn how to show it. Tune in for practical advice, a real look at the transition process, and a conversation that will help you rethink how you tell your story.Connect with Jon: Jon Clark | LinkedIn
