🇺🇸 Recognizing the value of veterans in the workforce isn't just about acknowledging their service—it's about embracing their unique talents and perspectives. From their adaptability and composure to their vast training experience, veterans possess valuable skills that can drive innovation and success in any organization. Despite their invaluable contributions, veterans often face misconceptions and barriers to employment. Stereotypes about veterans' abilities and experiences can lead to missed opportunities for both employers and veterans alike. By debunking these myths and investing in programs like employee resource groups (ERGs), companies can create inclusive environments where veterans feel respected, supported, and empowered to thrive. Let's commit to championing the hiring and retention of veterans every single day. Together, let's ensure that our workplaces reflect the diversity and strength of our nation's military community. 🎖️ #VeteransDay #DiversityandInclusion #HireVeterans #humanresources #hr #recruitment #business #hiring #humanresourcesmanagement #recruiting #jobs #leadership #career #job #employment #work #management #payroll #staffing #recruiter #training #hrmanagement #trivalley #california #bayarea #usa #losangeles #ignitehrsolutions #ignitehrrecruiting

Veterans, I salute you! Thank you so much for all you did to protect and serve this country! Veterans are highly skilled and ready to contribute!

While on a call with Jake Hutchings this morning, an interesting concept was brought up regarding #veteranhiring and #milspouse hiring. Particularly within #talentacquisition teams that have regional or national needs. RecruitMilitary hosts 110 #careerfairs during the course of the calendar year. Nearly 1/3rd of these events are held on military installations. With 40% of servicemembers being married, imagine the growth of your talent pool when you tap into their spouses. The loyalty of the milspouse community cannot be more highly stressed. These men and women pick up their household every 2-5 years and move it (often across the country). Imagine the type of employer who hires that person. And takes one task (find a new job) off of their list. Can you see the impact of the value they feel by their employer? Those conversations are so impactful, and are some of my favorite to have with Clients. Educating corporate America to better position themselves to hire #transitioningservicemembers and their spouses, is some of the most meaningful work I do. So if you have questions, please, just ping my inbox. #veteranshelpingveterans #veteranhiring #recruitmilitary

Living up to our mission at RecruitMilitary means understanding our role: We are intermediaries in the veteran employment ecosystem, not the focal point. Our passion is connecting employers with the military community. However, our primary function is to facilitate, not lead, the conversations that bridge this gap. It’s essential that the voices of the real stakeholders - job seekers, employers, the Department of Defense, the Department of Labor, workforce development experts, and transition professionals - drive the discussions. Their insights uncover pressing issues and lead us to the most effective solutions. As an intermediary, our value lies in how effectively we support and amplify the efforts of those we serve. In this ecosystem, it's not about which voice is loudest or which entity has the most resources. Our focus must remain sharp on the key stakeholders. At RecruitMilitary, our commitment is unwavering: to enrich the veteran employment landscape without overshadowing the very individuals we aim to assist.

Today, July 25, 2024, is National Hire a Veteran Day, a day to recognize the invaluable contributions Veterans bring to our workforce. We encourage you to join us in our efforts to support Veteran employment initiatives and recognizing the importance of hiring Veterans in the workplace Veterans bring a unique set of skills, perspectives, and experiences to the table, making them valuable additions to any team. By hiring Veterans, not only do we support those who have served our country, but we also benefit from their dedication, leadership, and problem-solving abilities. FEMA has many vacancies specific to Veterans that qualify under several special hiring authorities. A special hiring authority does not guarantee you a job, but it does mean that we have to consider your application as you were still competing against other individuals that may have similar hiring authorities or be qualified for the job. https://lnkd.in/e5WqrtbS As a veteran, it is important to remember that you were also eligible for all open to the public positions which include our CORE, Reaervist, and Local Hire positions. https://lnkd.in/e4WTuqi4 I will post some links in the comments below to the USA Jobs federal résumé builder and two a video I created to assist you in focusing your federal résumé to a specific job announcement. Thank you for your service.

Veterans bring so many technical and soft skills to organisations and not just Defence Industry employers like #baesystems. Veterans can impart leadership, teamwork, initiative, training and planning skills to your business. Does your team need these skills, knowledge, attitudes and behaviours?

As we honor those who served on this #VeteransDay, hear from a panel of advocates who share advice on how employers can address the needs of veterans and their families. #WeAreBCBST
