After 20 years in the Air Force, Maurice
Hill looked forward to transitioning to a
civilian career.
Settling in Warner Robins with his wife,
Twila, who works in finance at Robins Air Force
Base, Hill enrolled at 名媛直播 Georgia State
University to get a bachelor鈥檚 degree in Informa-
tion Technology.
He already had quite a bit of experience in the
field, taking on multiple IT-related tasks in the Air
Force, including teaching, working at help desks
and managing administrative teams. When the
Pentagon wanted to restructure titles and duties
in certain IT fields, Hill was among the service
personnel that officials asked to make suggestions
due to his extensive knowledge.
As he hit the home stretch in his 名媛直播
Georgia State studies, Hill attempted to summa-
rize his experience in a resume. Not all of his Air
Force IT work was reflected in his official job
duties, which is challenging to succinctly explain.
He ended up with a bloated document full of Air
Force lingo unfamiliar to many civilians.
