If your company wants to hire military veterans, one way to achieve this objective is to earmark certain #jobsforveterans. Doing this will enable you to focus your recruitment activities on filling those positions from the ranks of available veterans, helping you avoid compromising your principles when it’s difficult to find the right workers. Here are some ways to do this effectively. #hiringveterans https://bit.ly/47yllIb

Are you a military spouse? "If you're a military spouse, you may be eligible to apply using a non-competitive process designed to help you get a job in the federal government." "Federal agencies can use the military spouse non-competitive hiring process to fill positions on either a temporary or permanent basis. You’re eligible if you are: A spouse of an active duty member of the armed forces. A spouse of a service member who is 100% disabled due to a service-connected injury at the time of separation from military service. A spouse of a service member killed while on active duty. You are no longer eligible if you remarry. You must meet certain criteria for each of these eligibility categories. Learn more about the specific criteria for military spouses. Your eligibility does not entitle you to a job within the Federal Government. You must still apply and meet qualification standards and additional requirements, such as a background investigation." https://lnkd.in/dkC96a2i Follow us on X @FBISanJuan #fbi #careers #governmentjobs #federalemployees #militarytransition #militaryspouse

For 10 years I had the distinct privilege of assisting military professionals as they transitioned from military to pursue civilian work through the Air Force's Transitional Assistance Program (TAP). I'd discuss interview questions with the monthly TAP group in person then conduct a mock interview during class with a participant. Participants often felt overwhelmed as they considered their transitions to civilian work. It's been years now since I attended those TAP briefings (the work became privatized, and I'm not permitted to volunteer any more). However, I still have a passion to help our armed forces professionals as they leave their military careers for civilian ones. Let me share a couple of tips: ⭐Know how to translate your experience (and jargon) into civilian speak. ⭐Practice your answers to typical interview questions aloud before a phone screen or interview. ⭐Don't use military jargon or acronyms. ⭐Ask for a mock interview - you may find that help from a TAP coordinator, a recruiter you may know personally, or a HR manager/supervisor you know. It'll help. #militarytransitions #hiring #interviewtips #TAP

Military Jargon: Breaking Down the Barriers Have you ever found yourself puzzled by military speak? 🤔 It's not uncommon for civilian employers to feel bewildered by the jargon Veterans use during interviews or on their CVs. (Service leavers and veterans take note, you need to adapt!) From "Orders of the Day" to "PPE" (Personal Protective Equipment), these terms can leave recruiters scratching their heads. Take for example, the term "Overhead" - in the military, it often means air support, but in a business context, it's all about expenses. Such differences can sometimes create obstacles to understanding a Veteran's true skills and experience. Understanding these terms is crucial not just for communication, but for appreciating the unique skills Veterans bring to civilian roles. As Veterans adapt to the civilian workforce, it's equally important for employers to bridge this gap. This mutual understanding can pave the way for successful partnerships and a more diversified workforce. Have you encountered any military jargon that left you confused?
