Looking to hire a veteran? Then you probably already
know the many reasons that veterans make excellent employees. Their military
experience has provided them with education, training, values, leadership
skills and teamwork experience.
Two steps to hire a vet
Follow these two simple steps to find and hire qualified veterans.
1. Begin by
posting your job opening on your state job bank.
Follow the instructions on your state job bank website to post jobs.
2. Next, contact a
Veterans Employment Representative at an American Job
Center. Let them know you want to hire a veteran. They may ask for
details of your job listing(s). They will be able to help you identify
qualified veterans.
Translate military skills
Many veterans have specific skills that can be put to good use in
your workplace. To learn about military occupations that may share skills and
work experience with the jobs you're hiring for, visit the Civilian-to-Military
Occupation Translator.
