Air Force 3N0X6 · Public Affairs

You bring the Public Affairs language you know. We write your resume in the language hiring managers want to see.

In the Air Force, you spoke a specific language, and it's the one you know. Civilian hiring managers don't speak it. We bridge that gap for you.

Public Affairs Airmen tell the Air Force story: writing, photo and video, social media, and media relations. Civilian employers call that public relations, communications, content, and multimedia work.

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 Public Affairs, 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 Public Relations Specialist, and add a secondary line like 'Military title: Public Affairs (3N0X6)'. Recruiters search civilian titles; the AFSC helps veteran-friendly employers and federal HR.

What civilian jobs fit 3N0X6 best?

O*NET maps 3N0X6 to 28 related civilian occupations. The closest matches include public relations specialists, public relations managers, and news analysts, reporters, and journalists.

How many Airmen work in 3N0?

The Air & Space Forces Magazine 2025 Almanac lists 1,105 Total Force enlisted Airmen in 3N0 (Public Affairs) 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.
