What’s A Good Website To Find Career Opportunities?
January 11, 2010 – 10:57 pmI am 15 years old (female) and have two and a half years of high school left. I really want to be a chef (in or outside of the Air Force) but my parents keep telling me that that might not be good idea because the market is over crowded with chefs already and they only make eight to nine dollars an hour. My second career option is to be a surgeon in the Air Foce. So i’m looking for a website that could point me in the right direction.

I just got out of the Air Force and if you really want to be a chef, don’t join the Air Force for the training, but only if you need the money for the college. “Chefs” in the Air Force are more like cooks at a buffet restaurant. They open boxes of pre-made food and maybe add some spices then warm it up.
Plus the cooks at the Air Force dining halls are actually members of the “services” career field. They are trained to work at the dining hall, at the gym, or in the morgue with dead bodies. So you may be a cook for a year then hand out basketballs at the gym and wipe off sweaty weight benches for another year.
To be a surgeon in the Air Force, you actually have to be a doctor already, which means that you have to go to medical school before joining the Air Force. If you enlist in the medical field, you will be more like a nurse. You will take blood, give shots, take blood pressure etc.
If you are dead set on joining the Air Force, either go to college first whether through ROTC or not, then join as an officer. If you enlist, enlist for 4 years, see the world, get some skills and info for your resume, get the college money MGIB, then get out.
