Civilian Career Paths

O*NET supplies civilian occupation information, not proof of a military match. Related experience does not confer civilian qualifications.

Podiatrists

Army experience diagnosing and treating foot disorders, providing surgical and nonsurgical care, and delivering podiatric consultations directly overlaps civilian podiatry practice.

How to prepare: Compare your education, residency and examination records with the target state's podiatry licensing requirements and a prospective employer's credentialing criteria. Civilian practice requires a Doctor of Podiatric Medicine degree, a 3-year residency and state licensure, including passing all parts of a qualifying exam; some states impose additional requirements.

What the civilian work involves
  • Diagnose diseases and deformities of the foot using medical histories, physical examinations, x-rays, and laboratory test results.
  • Prescribe medications, corrective devices, physical therapy, or surgery.
  • Surgically treat conditions such as corns, calluses, ingrown nails, tumors, shortened tendons, bunions, cysts, or abscesses.
