How to Convert Your MOS to a Civilian Job Title
What Is a Military Crosswalk?
A "crosswalk" matches your military job to civilian job titles. The O*NET OnLine Military Crosswalk Search is a free government tool run by O*NET, not by VetJobsFL. You type in your MOS, MOC or rating, and it shows matching civilian occupations.
- The crosswalk results come from O*NET's own classification data.
- VetJobsFL does not create its own custom matches beyond what the crosswalk already shows.
What Florida Pay Looks Like for Some Matches
VetJobsFL also pulls pay figures from the BLS OES survey for specific occupations. These are statewide or metro-area medians, not starting salaries and not a promise from any employer.
- Aircraft mechanic: median pay of $76,940 in Florida (BLS OES, May 2025).
- Information security analyst: median pay of $118,970 in Tampa Bay (BLS OES, May 2025).
Confirm any pay figure directly with the BLS source before making a decision, since your actual offer can be higher or lower.
Fields and Certifications VetJobsFL Covers
VetJobsFL is built around Florida careers such as police, fire, corrections, aircraft mechanic, avionics, lineman, logistics, IT security, paramedic and RN. It also references civilian certifications like A&P, Security+, PMP and CDL. The material provided does not give exam fees, pass rates or renewal rules for these certifications — check with the certifying agency directly for that.
What We Don't Know
- Whether VetJobsFL is free is unclear from the tool's own marketing, but the pricing plans listed are $9, $99 and $299 — so it is not free.
- What happens to the MOS, rating or resume information you enter is not described in the material. Check VetJobsFL's own privacy policy, or ask directly, before pasting personal or military details.
- Whether any specific employer in your metro is hiring at the BLS median pay is not something this data can tell you.
Not Career, Legal, or Tax Advice
This page is not legal, medical, or tax advice. It also isn't a guarantee of a job offer or a specific salary. Confirm certification requirements, pay expectations, and any costs directly with the relevant agency or employer before you make decisions.
What To Do Next
Use the O*NET crosswalk tool with your own MOS, MOC or rating to see your matching civilian titles. If you use VetJobsFL, it can read your own document or numbers — your resume, MOS code, or target metro — and show you matching Florida pay data pulled from BLS. Review the pricing plans first, and confirm privacy details with VetJobsFL directly before submitting personal information.
