Hiring Veterans Earns its First 5-Star Review

I’m proud to announce that Hiring Veterans has just earned its first 5-Star review. Tammy Ruggles from International Readers’ Favorite writes as follows:

Hiring Veterans: How To Leverage Military Talent for Organizational Growth is an inspiring and timely guide to recognizing and utilizing one of America’s most valuable resources: veterans. From the ground up, these authors plan to hire and maximize veterans in the workforce and community. One key point the book covers is how veterans can transition from military to civilian work. If this happens smoothly, hiring and retaining them will be more successful. It would be to the business sector’s advantage to hire someone with military service as part of their work experience, and many companies are doing this through their hiring programs. Veterans bring skills and a proven track record that can’t be found elsewhere, and they are brought into a company with a selection process that can include assessment, shadowing, and other training strategies if needed.

“If you think about the qualities and experience most veterans bring to the table, hiring veterans makes a lot of sense. This ready and willing population could boost your productivity and profits. You don’t have to run a big corporation to benefit. Small businesses are taking advantage of this opportunity to grow. Other issues addressed in this book include finding and recruiting veterans for your workforce, how to keep them once hired, how to access and implement the financial incentives that come with hiring veterans, and much more. Some of the skills veterans offer include leadership, a strong work ethic, and the ability to work in high-pressure situations. I like that this book is more than a theory. It’s grounded in research, offers practical tips, contains real-world examples via case studies, and is a guide you can use today. Hiring Veterans is a must-read if you are looking for that competitive edge in business and community.”
