I'm currently in the military with a rating of IT. On the most part I deal with telecommunications. I want to know when I leave the military what I can do as a DMS and a telecommunications tech. I've been in about 6 yrs now and looking to leave ASAP. Prefer to work in Australia or any other country. Anyone with info please help....

Having recently retireed from the military I can tell you that the IT field is pretty wide open. Some of your options are to get with your transitions office on base and get their advice. Also, get your resume and education transcripts ready as these will often be requested by companies. I had goo dluck looking out on some of the job search boards such as Monster.com where you can narrow your search parameters. I do recall seeing jobs out there for DMS, however, I don't know what the availability is overseas.

Good luck in your transistion!

Your prior expierence will give you a good background in entering into the IT field and now that telecommunications is opening up,you will have no problem.If you are planning to locate in Australia you may want to research the area and find out whatjobs are in demand,You willbe in demand yet I feel any company will try to use your expierence to their advantage,meanig hired to wear many hats,yet it may be the oppurtunity that you would like.Good Luck
