Keywords we build into your resume automatically

Most employers use resume-screening software (an ATS, or applicant tracking system) that searches for job-related words before a person ever reads your resume. We work the right ones in for you, using only what you actually did. Your report also lists them for your LinkedIn profile.

A note from the founder

I served on active duty in the U.S. Air Force from 2001 to 2009 as a 2W0 Munitions Systems specialist and a C-130 Loadmaster. I didn't work Electrical Systems, so this page leans on O*NET and BLS data rather than my own memories. The problem is the same, though: your experience is valuable, and it has to be written in the civilian employer's language.

Questions veterans ask

Do I list my AFSC on a civilian resume?

Lead with a civilian title, such as Electrician, and add a secondary line like 'Military title: Electrical Systems (3E0X1)'. Recruiters search civilian titles; the AFSC helps veteran-friendly employers and federal HR.

What civilian jobs fit 3E0X1 best?

O*NET maps 3E0X1 to 16 related civilian occupations. The closest matches include electricians, electrical and electronics repairers, powerhouse, substation, and relay, and electrical power-line installers and repairers.

How many Airmen work in 3E0?

The Air & Space Forces Magazine 2025 Almanac lists 2,690 Total Force enlisted Airmen in 3E0 (Civil Engineer) as of Sept. 30, 2024, which makes it one of the largest enlisted specialties. That's a lot of veterans competing for the same civilian roles, so a clear translation matters.
