Does your work bring you meaning? Do you know a Veteran who struggles to find meaning after military service? Meaning at work is often connected to a sense of accomplishment, professional efficacy and recognition for a job well done. This is especially important to Veterans. According to Jacey Eckhart at Military.com, "For Veterans, meaningful work is not something you find. Meaningful work is something you make." Please share these tips with Veterans to help them find meaningful work after military service: * Give yourself credit for knowing what meaningful work feels like, because of your military service. * Identify what you found meaningful while serving and why. Think about when you felt a sense of accomplishment, mastery and were recognized for a job well done. Where could you find this in the civilian world? * Give yourself time to learn about how the civilian world really works, where you can be most useful and keep searching for that career that brings you meaning. It takes time. Learn more here https://buff.ly/3PrEBxK Join the Veteran Champion Movement. Be a part of the win! #VanguardVeteran #HireAVeteran #VeteranTalentAcademy

Attention employers & recruiters in the Central Texas area. Here's a short video from our Texas Veterans Commission Joshua Pinson where he provides an overview of how he assists employers (at no cost) with hiring veterans. Joshua along with our other Veteran Employer Liaisons across #Texas #work with #employers, #hiring #manager and #recruiters from both private and #government employers to assist them in finding #veterans and transitioning service members who are highly #qualified for their opened positions.

Employers: If you’re looking for examples of successful career pathways for military community talent, start in-house. You may have members of the military community on your team without even realizing it. Those team members are key in helping you determine the most successful pathways for military community talent. It can be as simple as organizing a conversation with a resident veteran to ask them, “What makes you great at your job, and how has your military experience contributed to your success here?” Tap internal resources to find successful pathways that have already been executed. There may be a few right under your nose. Veterans, what strengths and skills developed in the military do you use in your job today? Tell me about it in the comments.

More than this, veterans who have civilian work experience can help translate the resumes and experiences of transitioning service members to their civilian employers. This was hard for me to do on my own. I know what I had done over ten years. I knew what skills sets I had and what my military education meant. I just didn’t know how to sell it - or worse - drastically underselling something because I don’t know how to explain what it means on a resume. Every little bit of help has compounding effects for transitioning service members. Once you’ve successfully moved into your new career, remember what it was like and help get your current employers to understand more about it can only help them and transitioning service members.

What, where, who? Since my transition from military service I have come to believe that for those in the process of moving to veteran status, what, where, and who, should be on their minds regularly. So what do these words mean? What do you plan to do after leaving the military? (i.e., type of work, career field, or other avenues) Where do you plan to live and why? Who is your post transition support group and are they where you will be? (these people should generally not presently be in the military) Knowing the what, where, and who, will help ease your transition and let you train your attention to the smaller details and changes post departure.
