Did you know that every year, 200,000 Veterans transition into civilian life and join the community of 7.8 million working-age Veterans in the U.S.? ???? Of those transitioning, 73% of veterans are seeking employment right away. This represents an annual pipeline of 188,000 skilled, experienced professionals ready to work. Veterans bring valuable assets to organizations, such as: ?? Transferable skills: Problem-solving, stress management, strong work ethic, flexibility, autonomy, and critical thinking. ?? Resiliency: Adaptable in the face of rapid change and challenges. ?? Mission Driven: Ability to understand the needed result and how to succeed without a detailed blueprint. These attributes contribute to higher-than-average employment rates compared to non-Veterans. For companies looking to meet their DEI goals, Veterans are a more diverse talent pool than college graduates.? If a Veteran sourcing and retention program isn't part of your talent acquisition strategy, you're missing out on valuable talent. #MilitaryTransition #Veteran #TransitioningMilitary #TalentAcquisition

With over 20 years of #military experience and extensive work in facilitating military-to-civilian transitions by leading global veteran programs in major tech companies (#Fortinet and #Alteryx) and forming worldwide partnerships with over 20 #nonprofits (TechVets, Soldier On Australia, Hire Heroes USA, Blue Star Families, Institute for Veterans and Military Families - IVMF, Coding for Veterans, Women In Data??, Women in CyberSecurity (WiCyS), and many more), I can confidently affirm that #career and transition planning is crucial for success! Just as occupational training is essential for military service, ongoing career development is crucial for post-service achievements. The DoD-SkillBridge program is a remarkable opportunity to translate your military expertise into civilian careers. #SkillBridge connects your military training and experience with valuable civilian job opportunities as you prepare to transition out of service. If you have 180 or fewer days remaining before separation and at least 180 continuous days of active service, you may be eligible for SkillBridge. Plan ahead and maximize this benefit for a smoother transition into civilian life! ?? #MilitaryTransition #CareerPlanning #VeteranSuccess

The annual transition of over 200,000 military service veterans into the civilian workforce offers significant benefits to firms seeking new hires, as highlighted by a 2022 study conducted by Syracuse University with support from JPMorganChase. That study found that veterans bring heightened productivity, faster promotability to leadership roles and smoother adaptability to dynamic business landscapes to their employers. They also exhibit lower turnover rates and higher levels of dedication when compared to non-military peers with similar skill sets. For businesses grappling with workforce challenges, tapping into the pool of returning military personnel could be a strategic solution. Initiating programs to attract and retain these veterans can enhance your workforce quality and stability. No matter your location, regional entities like workforce development, economic development, veteran service, or state agencies stand ready to facilitate connections between your company and the exceptional military veteran talent pool. One of the best ways to truly honor our returning veterans is to give them your fullest consideration as an employer and invest in their continued development and advancement. #VeteransDay #HireAVeteran #Manufacturing #ManufacturingCareers #MFG #Veterans #Workforce

Update: I'm grateful for the opportunity to serve as one of the (many) coaches for the upcoming FourBlock Virtual Central cohort! FourBlock was key to preparing me for my transition from military to civilian life. If you are a transitioning military member and haven't attended already, I greatly recommend signing up and joining this (free) after-hours career development program. You'll have opportunities for self discovery, polish your "elevator pitch," and to network with great companies and organizations. Note: For military members preparing to start their civilian life, the skills you gained in your military career will not (by themselves) prepare you to join the civilian workforce. Take the time to grow the skills needed to present your experience, knowledge, and leadership abilities in the best possible light... and hopefully make it easier to land your next role! Transitioning military members and veterans welcome! Link in the comments.

As we honour the brave men and women who have served our country, it’s essential to recognise the unique journey many veterans face when transitioning to civilian life. As I have mentioned in my upcoming book, embrace the opportunity to learn and grow! Whether through formal education, vocational training, or workshops, enhancing your skills can boost your confidence and broaden your career options. Through Critical Alpha, connect with fellow veterans and professionals in your desired field. Leverage platforms like LinkedIn to reach out, attend events, and participate in forums. Building a strong network can open doors to new opportunities and provide valuable support. To all veterans: As you embark on this new chapter, remember that you are not alone. Embrace the challenges, leverage your strengths, and continue to serve—this time in your communities and workplaces. #Veterans #CareerTransition #Mentorship

Translating military skills, embracing non-linear paths, and reframing experiences are valuable topics for us veterans and for hiring managers. If you are look for insights on veteran transition to corporate careers, this Harvard Business Review article is a great read. #VeteranTransition?#CorporateCareers https://lnkd.in/gev9fjmR?

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.
