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.

Maintenance Planner

Coordinating scheduled and unscheduled aircraft maintenance and equipment modifications transfers directly to planning work orders and revising maintenance schedules.

How to prepare: Build a sample maintenance schedule in Microsoft Excel that tracks work orders, planned modifications, and changes caused by interruptions.

What the civilian work involves
  • Distribute production schedules or work orders to departments.
  • Revise production schedules when required due to design changes, labor or material shortages, backlogs, or other interruptions, collaborating with management, marketing, sales, production, or engineering.
  • Review documents, such as production schedules, work orders, or staffing tables, to determine personnel or materials requirements or material priorities.
Civilian tools and software (examples)
  • Microsoft Excel
  • Microsoft Outlook
  • Adobe Acrobat

Network and Computer Systems Administrators

Building and operating NALCOMIS and SMART servers, managing hardware and software upgrades, and administering local networks provide a foundation for civilian systems administration.

How to prepare: Build a Linux server lab and document its configuration, backup restoration, and troubleshooting procedures to demonstrate skills beyond the Navy-specific environment.

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.
