Interviews these days are more of the situational type of questions. For example, "Please give me an example of when you had to work with an unruly employee." As you counsel your veterans, a good exercise to use may be a dry run . . . place them in the interview situation and pose the situational questions you think most employers will use. The veteran may be easily capable of identifying those specific situations that are applicable to the question, but they may need some help in "civilianizing" their answer. Just as we coach veterans to not sit at a modified position of attention, we also need to make sure the veteran is conversant in civilian terms about their leadership experience. The experience is usually sufficient, but the ability to talk about that experience to a person who may not have any military experience is usually the toughest part of the interview.
