Our Vets, a Valuable Resource we Need to Use: Companies are Reassessing their Requirements for Jobs with Experience over Degrees. Our Vets possess Experience, Leadership, Resourcefulness, Persistence, and unquestionable Loyalty.

Never confuse Education with Experience, they aren’t the same!

We all want to honor and thank the service and sacrifice that our Vets have made for us in the freedom and liberty that they have provided and protected. But we can do so much more than just recognizing them for their service and sacrifice; we can do something we all want in life. That is a job where we all can be respected and to be valued for our talents, contributions, and our abilities that we can provide.

Vets bring so much more than just their talents, they bring commitment, their life skills that were developed under the most demanding circumstances and situations. Vets work with some of the cutting edge technology and multi-million dollar pieces of equipment .

Vets have various high level skills to offer companies and organizations

They use their skills and knowledge in the support of field operations where other people and their lives are on the line. As Vets, we are able to adapt to circumstances without being contently supervised or directed in achieving the mission. As Vets, we also had to be resourceful and make adjustments without wavering in providing leadership, collaborating, and with coordination with others.

 

Vets respect and know the importance of authority in the command and operational control of operations and working in a safe environment. Vets have developed a vast arsenal of knowledge, following procedures, and skills that they can draw to adapt to operational changes. In addition to leadership skills, Vets have a vast amount of system organizational management and preparation skills.

If you want to improve your workforce with skilled and experienced members, reach out to hire a Vet for your team. They will bring value to your existing workforce with their inspiration and their professionalism without making excuses. Vets have what we call “That can do Attitude in Getting it Done Spirit.”

We all want to be valued, respected, and contribute to achieving tasks and objectives. Hiring a Vet will be one of the biggest assets in your company or organization. Offering a Vet a job is a great way to say thanks and honor their service and sacrifice. Just like the Greatest Generation created one of the most economical revolution, our current Vets can bring that to your company. Take the month of November to think of ways to incorporate a Vet into your workforce. Reach out to a Veteran organization to inquire how your company can make a great hire.
