Study Reveals Why More Veterans Aren’t Getting Hired By Kelly Johnson
In today's economic climate, transitioning from the military to the civilian world will mean entering an unyielding job market and period of unemployment for most veterans. In fact, the unemployment rate for former servicemembers from Iraq and Afghanistan conflicts rose from 10 percent in May 2010 to 11.5 percent in June 2010, according to the Bureau of Labor Statistics. But, a tight job market is only part of the veteran unemployment problem. read moreVideo "Teleconferencing" Transition Assistance Program (TAP), Michigan

"Meet Today’s Military
The United States military is the world’s largest technical
training school with over 220 occupational specialties. Why is
today’s military so technical? In 1972 the military became an all
volunteer force. Since then it has been reduced from 3.6 million
people to 1.4 million on active duty. The military replaced bodies
with education and technology! The impact on American society of an
all volunteer military is in 1970, one in ten people working in
America had served in the military. Today it is one in 200!
Relevant information about the military today includes:
- In 1970, less than 1% of all the enlisted personnel on
active duty had any exposure to college. Today, 30% have a college
degree (AS/BS) and 1% has a masters or doctorate!
- The military is the most drug free workforce in the United States!
- Military personnel receive the strongest training for a job
possible to ensure success in their missions.
- 92% of active duty military in the United States use computers at
their places of duty and 40% of military personnel have job
assignments that involve information resource management.
- 60% of the enlisted personnel can program in at least one computer
language.
- The military is the premier training ground for leaders with high
ethics!
- The military is the most diverse workforce in America in terms of
ethnicity and religion!
- 95% of those working in the U. S. defense industry originally
obtained their security clearance in the military!
When once asked why a company should hire veterans, VetJobs’
president answered: How many of the vice presidents in your company
manage a $30,000,000 budget, lead 18 people – that is a good ratio
of people to money – go through twelve months of extensive training
to learn their equipment, and if they make a mistake will take the
City of Jacksonville off the face of the earth? I just gave you the
basic job description of a weapons officer on a frigate in Mayport,
Florida, who also has several other collateral duty assignments. And
by the way, that weapons officer is a female who just turned 25
years old!
Meet today’s military. This is not the military of World War II
or Vietnam. It is the most highly trained, technically capable,
verifiable, diverse and teamwork oriented work force in the world
today!"
