With Veteran's Day upon us this Saturday, I wanted to share some new analysis by several of my McKinsey colleagues who are veterans of the US armed forces. Military veterans bring ready-made skills to the civilian workforce, yet they’re often overlooked by traditional ways of hiring, particularly for those without a four-year degree. Check out this article, edited by my friend and colleague, Barbara Tierney, to see which skills from military service are most transferrable, which jobs and industries are most affected by automation and generative AI, and how the military and employers can create better pathways that provide upward mobility for veterans. #Veterans #VeteransDay #futureofwork #SkillsBasedHiring #HireSTARs #EconomicInclusion
