Veteran Talent A Must For Business Trends
A must-read for both employers and job seekers appeared yesterday on Massachusetts' Business West. Written by a worker's comp professional, it is a plea to employers to position themselves to attract the best talent. What constitutes the best talent? How about his second bullet: "Up to 75% of those 18 to 24 years old are not eligible for the military due to obesity, illiteracy, or substance abuse." His implication is that you, the military job seeker, are not going to be heading out into the civilian workforce in the numbers you once did and are therefore that much more valuable! You are needed in industries across the board - his example is auto technicians, which will never be outsourced and require technical knowledge, but his point extends across the civilian marketplace.
