Why Focus My Civilian Career in the Utilities Industry?
“Figures vary among companies, but industry officials estimate that half of the 400,000 employees in the workforce will be eligible for retirement during the next five to 10 years. They include workers who operate power-plant equipment and repair the lines carrying electricity to homes and businesses.”

One of the foundations of modern society is an advanced utilities infrastructure. Utility companies provide and distribute electricity, natural gas, water, voice and data information to every community in America. The systems that deliver these services require continuous maintenance, repair and modernization. The ability to keep distribution systems operable during an emergency or immediately following a natural disaster is paramount to a utility’s success.
Utilities recognize that many Sailors, Marines, Airman and Soldiers perform vital utility functions aboard their ship, submarine, expeditionary airfield, forward operating base or home post. As their workforce ages and retires, utilities are eager to hire seasoned professionals with the maturity, initiative and self-discipline to operate under challenging field conditions.
