From Military to Top Dollar Contractor

The Military Woman and so much More

Overview:

Although she has never served, TC Michell is someone every military member in the process of transitioning out should know. She has helped many veterans transition out of the military into jobs that pay better salaries than they had ever had before. This episode, TC will discuss the key to making money post-military life: government contracting.

TC says that government contracting jobs are the best way for military members to easily make the most money. For one, all of the years spent in the military are extremely valuable. Just the 6 week basic training is already worth so much. The federal government values these years of experience and training significantly more than a college degree and they will certainly pay you for it. It is also important to note that with your experience in the military, it will be a breeze to get you a clearance. Having a clearance will drive your salary up because it shows that you are honorable and trustworthy.

Find out how to make your transition out of the military the most profitable by leveraging your skill set and years of service by listening to what TC Mitchell has to say on this week’s episode of Military Women and So Much More!

Quotes

• “When you come out of service, when you come out of giving your years to the government as a military person, they value..

• “I will say being able to be eligible to classified information, and to work on classified contracts means you're trustworthy. And that trustworthiness equates to more dollars.” (07:32- 07:48)
• “Make as much money as you can with the foundation that you have because often when you transition into a new career path, you are going to start entry level, you are going to start at the bottom level so your money may not be as great.”(19:53- 20:06)
