Turn Military Experience into Civilian Career Success with OneTen and Military.com

Transitioning from military service to the civilian workforce can feel like navigating a completely new landscape—especially when it comes to explaining your experience and skills in terms hiring managers understand. That’s where Military.com’s Skills Translator, in partnership with OneTen, is making a real difference.

Together, we’re helping veterans and active-duty service members bridge the gap between military experience and civilian careers, without a four-year degree. Through this collaboration, veterans gain direct access to the OneTen Career Marketplace, where they can connect with employers who are actively seeking skilled, experienced talent.

What is the Military.com Skills Translator?

The Military Skills Translator is a free tool designed to help veterans and transitioning service members understand how their military experience aligns with civilian job opportunities.

How does it work? The skills translator maps your Military Occupational Specialties (MOS), Navy Ratings, or Air Force Specialty Codes (AFSC) to related civilian job titles and descriptions.

This tool is especially helpful for those who may not know where their skills “fit” after service. Whether you’ve led logistics operations, performed technical repairs, managed people and projects, or worked in healthcare or intelligence, the translator helps you leverage your military strengths and align them with career paths that need your expertise.

How to use the Skills Translator

1. 1. Visit military.com/skills-translator
   2. Select your military branch (e.g., Army, Navy, Air Force, Marines, or Coast Guard) and input your MOS, AFSC, or Rating. Don’t worry if you don’t know your exact code—there’s a lookup feature.
   3. View your matches — The tool will generate a list of civilian job titles that align with your military role, along with typical responsibilities, required qualifications, and employment outlook.
   4. Explore career opportunities through the OneTen Career Marketplace, where you’ll find roles with top employers who focus on your skills. You can also take advantage of resume and interview support, coaching, and community resources available through OneTen.

This isn’t just about finding “any” job—it’s about finding a career where your leadership, discipline, problem-solving skills, and technical know-how are not only recognized but truly valued. It’s not just a translator—it’s a powerful career discovery resource.

Through the Skills Translator and OneTen’s Career Marketplace, we connect veterans with employers committed to inclusive hiring and long-term career growth. We're not just helping people land jobs—we’re building pathways to lasting success.
