Many veterans struggle to market themselves effectively. Employers receive resumes every day from veterans, but managers have trouble understanding the military lingo and identifying transferable skills.
There are stigmas associated with veterans: some employers believe Iraq and Afghanistan veterans are not good job candidates due to physical or psychological disabilities. Our nation has invested considerable resources into training its military service members, only to “leave money on the table” when those members become unemployed veterans.
