Why BIG Companies Take Veteran Hiring Seriously (and You Should Too)

Have you ever wondered why big companies invest in transition schemes? In today’s article we share some of the key reasons with you

Major successful companies like Amazon and Microsoft have got big transition schemes. These companies look at their business years in advance and veterans play a big part in the future of these companies. They know veterans are great hires because veteran employees add great value to a business, especially within IT/telecoms and logistics: veterans learn quickly, they’re adaptable and have a ton of experience managing budgets, working in teams, efficiently problem solving, not to mention how well they perform under pressure. 

In short, veterans can help a company accomplish their big goals by having the ideal work ethic and mindset for the job. 

“We actively seek leaders who can invent, think big, have a bias for action and deliver results on behalf of our customers. These principles look very familiar to men and women who have served our country in the armed forces, and we find that their experience of leading people is invaluable in our fast-paced work environment.” — Jeff Bezos

If you’re looking for employees with:

• A growth-mindset and a willingness to explore new ideas and innovations
• Project-management and problem-solving skills
• Strong interpersonal and communication skills
• People and leadership skills through past work experiences
• Someone who can strongly align and support with your mission

Hiring ex-mil candidates is your ticket.

Nowhere else will you find a blend of job skills that include leadership, discipline, and pressure-based decision-making. Serving their country, veterans have trained to become your company’s greatest asset.
