Looking for work and finding a great career path is difficult for veterans transitioning back to civilian life, even in the best circumstances. But, as we are dealing with the COVID-19 pandemic, searching for a new career is even more complex. Specifically, when the pandemic began, several jobs disappeared, and a great deal of information is pointing to the fact that some of the lost jobs will not be returning. Even more are in danger from automation and AI, or if we experience another pandemic or something similar from a global perspective. Data about jobs that create pathways for those who may lack degrees but possess marketable skills, called “Gateway Jobs,” is emerging and beneficial for veterans seeking career paths. Learn what jobs are most in danger, what jobs create pathways to new careers and how one program is incorporating job vulnerability and gateway job data along with psychological science to help guide veterans and transitioning service members into new, promising careers.
