Career Center

The Air Force Academy produces outstanding leaders of character for the Air Force and the nation.  The AOG encourages all graduates to make the Air Force your first career.  Regardless of how long you remain on active duty, we all transition to the civilian workforce sometime.

The AOG Career Center is a collective set of tools and links intended to assist Academy graduates who are looking for civilian employment.
Use the left menu to navigate the career center.

Many of these tools are military specific, geared toward helping the Air Force officer transition into civilian employment.

For the first time, graduates with less than five years of service are being released from active duty as a result of "Force Shaping."  The Air Force is presently over strength in excess of 4,000 officers. It has implemented a "Force Shaping" program to meet its congressionally mandated fiscal year end strength requirements and maintain a balanced force. For more information concerning force shaping, visit http://ask.afpc.randolph.af.mil/forceshape/ .

Networking plays a key role in the job search.  Be sure to tell as many people as possible that you are looking for new opportunities. Visit our ZoomieNation and post your resume.  Graduates with jobs to offer also are encouraged to post them and offer other search tips. There, companies interested in making use of your military training and skills are also posting openings.
