 | I have roughly 9 years of IT experience. I'm applying for a director position (with probably 3-4 managers reporting to me, each with 4-8 people reporting to them). This would definitely be a big step up in responsibility for me, but I feel I'm ready for the challenge.
I've been largely a technical lead in the past. I've handled interviews and budgeting, but I'm concerned that since I have't been "strictly a manager" for 5+ years, that I won't be considered.
According to the job requirements, they want a "big picture thinker", and all the other traits fit me perfect. However, I know I'm skinny on the pure management piece, which is supposedly 20?f the job.
I don't want to exaggerate my resume, but I want to make sure I phrase information about my team and project leadership in a way that makes me seem as experienced in management as possible.
Any tips?

 | I've been told it's an excellent branch to go into with my degree. What jobs do most people in my field get in the airforce? Would I need training first? Are there specific bases in the country that require my degree? Do you know of any?
Sorry for so many questions, I am planning to ask a recruiter soon, but I wanted to check with others online too.

| I am going to a community college for Nursing this year, but after spring semester I am going to be put on a waiting list so I am going to have a whole year off school. I was thinking about getting my AA in Psychology in case things in the Nursing field do not work out when I am done. I have most of the pre-requisites done for it already so I would only have about a semester left to do. Are there any actual jobs you can do with a AA or do you pretty much have to have a bachelors? Any help would be appreciated. Thank you!

 | I know that you can get almost any job with a Mathematics degree, and I also that Mathematics graduates have the LOWEST levels of UNEMPLOYMENT, but which jobs can they get exactly?
Specific details please?
I know that you can be a maths teacher/lecturer, and that's obvious, but I really don't want to go into teaching.
I also know that you can have a job in Finance and Accounting, but they are also obvious.

 | If you just completley walked out on a job because it was sucking your life away, what would you write on your resume/job application for a new job?
No, I don't want to dis my old boss or job, they were all nice people, it was just the job itself that sucked and I really couldn't take one more minute of it. And I don't want to write anything that says that it was a bad place, b/c obviously that would look bad on myself as well. I was just looking for something like "wanted to move on" but I'm not sure if that is acceptable for a job application.
Haha. I think comments like "sucking my life away"" mean I am exactly the opposite of a typical 9-5 worker....
