What Booz Allen Hamilton looks for

Booz Allen's military recruiters give specific résumé advice: stay away from military jargon and acronyms, highlight your accomplishments and impact, state any active clearance, share your total years of military experience, and keep it to three pages at most. Interviews focus on how you solve problems, for example "Share a time you used technology to improve a process, product, or outcome." Some roles add a skills-based technical assessment. About one in three Booz Allen employees has served, and Booz Allen was the top Hiring Our Heroes host company in 2024.

Bullet formula: [Problem or mission need] + [the method or technology you applied] + [measurable outcome]. This mirrors Booz Allen's interview questions about using technology to improve an outcome.

Do

  • State your clearance exactly (e.g. "Active TS/SCI with CI Polygraph").
  • Give your total years of military experience in the summary so the timeline is clear.
  • Make every bullet quantifiable and measurable, focused on impact rather than duties.
  • Earn the degree or certifications the career field expects before you apply.
  • Build your network early, 18 to 24 months before separation, through LinkedIn, events and career fairs.
  • Prepare stories about solving problems with technology. Booz Allen's candidate guide lists these as typical interview questions.

Avoid

  • Don't use military jargon or acronyms.
  • Don't go over three pages.
  • Don't turn your camera off in virtual interviews. Booz Allen requires it and may take a photo to verify identity.
  • Don't respond to recruiters who don't use an @bah.com, @ne.bah.com or @recruiting.bah.com address.
