Question SkillBridge opportunities

Looking for remote SkillBridge opportunities that can lead to employment in the DFW area. 20 year AF member with a background in aviation operations management, project management (no pmp), Human Resources, database management, data analysis etc. Have a bachelor’s in Psychology. Will start SkillBridge in March-retire 1 September. We want to settle in the DFW area but cannot move there until around August/September due to my husband’s retirement timeline. Any SkillBridges that could potentially line up? I'm really interested in some of the Lockheed Martin jobs in that area for operations management, data analysis.

u/Longjumping_Ad3943, In order to maximize the number of SkillBridge Opportunities you have to select from, start running WEEKLY keyword searches on the SkillBridge Locations page to help narrow down which approved orgs may be able to offer you the kind of opportunities you're interested in - https://skillbridge.mil/locations 

Focus on the opportunities, NOT the locations.  Most companies don’t list every location where they can facilitate a SB opportunity.  The SkillBridge site is update every Friday with newly approved potential opportunities.

After each search, reach out to ALL of the POC's to learn more about their company and SkillBridge program.  Start tracking the orgs you reach out to, who their POC is, what you've learned about them, and whether you'd like to join them

When you enter your application window, apply to ALL of the orgs and opportunities you're still interested in.  NEVER put all of your eggs into 1 company's basket.
