Sage words from HB and others - I love to hear WIWAL etc, but not in the job interview. Make your experiences relevant to the civvy world and you will piss on all the other candidates - emphasise your ability to learn quickly, adapt and display talents for similar things.......

I.E. I say have you ever worked on xyz?

You say, no, but i have worked on zxy which is quite similar and I don't forsee any problems in the transition....

Also realise civvy street needs people who understand that the business needs to ake a profit (duh) and that it will expect its staff to work on if needed and step up......

Fly safe now
