A business case for hiring veterans

When it comes to veterans entering the workforce, are we telling the right story? Haven’t they been in the workforce already?

TL;DR

“Veterans stay with their initial company 8.3% longer than nonveterans.”

“Veterans are 39% more likely to be promoted earlier than nonveterans.”

Bridging the civilian-military divide demands that we think locally - “shift from a national strategy to regional strategic. Geographical implications influence employment experience and what opportunities may exist.”
