Veterans have spent the first part of their careers helping keep their country safe, so as they make the transition to the private sector, security jobs are a natural choice. Government Information Technology jobs, specifically, can be a great option. Between 2009 and 2015, job postings in the Information Technology market have increased by 74%.
Jobs are available both in the private sector and the public sector. Information Technology professionals can work in the Treasury Department, for security companies, for federal authorities, and across many other organizations.
If you have a college diploma and experience in the security or Information Technology field, then you have an advantage. About 84% of jobs in this sector require a college degree. Many of the employment opportunities are in the Washington, DC, area, since that’s where many Information Technology jobs for government organizations are located.
The opportunities for employment and salaries are great in this field. Veterans who enter Information Technology can make $70,000 to $113,000 on average. Specific salary amounts, however, will depend on job experience, job position, and a variety of other factors.
