Civilian Career Paths

Career associations are editorial assessments of the cited evidence, not an official crosswalk unless the evidence explicitly says so. O*NET supplies civilian occupation information, not proof of a military match. Related experience does not confer civilian qualifications. Tasks and tools below describe civilian work, not military training.

Network and Computer Systems Administrators

Military work with Linux, Microsoft, and Unix operating systems, Active Directory, DNS, client/server configuration, and hardware/software troubleshooting transfers directly to civilian systems administration.

How to prepare: Build a virtualized server lab with directory services and DNS, then document a backup-and-restore test and troubleshooting results.

What the civilian work involves
  • Maintain and administer computer networks and related computing environments, including computer hardware, systems software, applications software, and all configurations.
  • Perform data backups and disaster recovery operations.
  • Diagnose, troubleshoot, and resolve hardware, software, or other network and system problems, and replace defective components when necessary.
Civilian tools and software (examples)
  • Linux
  • Microsoft Active Directory
  • Bash
