Veterans bring incredible knowledge, experience and leadership. Leveraging veteran talent means overcoming cultural gaps, skill translation and reframing the way you view and interact with veteran talent and their resumes.
Veteran-Friendly to Veteran-Ready
Mobilizing well-intentioned veteran support into deliberate and intentional veteran hiring is beneficial to a corporation’s bottom line and an opportunity to reinvest in high performing service members. It is at the core of how COMMIT enables corporate partners to reframe and reinvent their veteran initiative programs.
All of the pieces came together to provide a greater understanding about helping veterans. The insights that COMMIT and other attendees shared was very helpful. I enjoyed the discussion of the military as another culture and applying cultural awareness strategies to working with, hiring, managing, and advising veterans.

Corporate Partnership
Mentorship is the foundation of our veteran services. Because veterans have such unique backgrounds, mentors who listen and orient their advice to their mentee are exceptionally powerful. Our Corporate Partners have provided stellar guidance and support to our service recipients, aiding in the positive journey they experience post-service.
By joining a COMMIT Consortium, your organization can help design a transformative environment in which our veterans can thrive and grow while your talent acquisition team gains access to all the tools and guidance our expert network can provide on hiring the right veteran for the job.

Prior to participating in the COMMIT Foundation program I often experienced great levels of anxiety and stress. This event provided a very clear, succinct method to re-evaluate and prioritize what is truly important to me when considering career transition.
