According to Military.com, nearly two-thirds of new veterans say they faced a difficult transition back to civilian life that didn’t have anything to do with family issues, war wounds, or PTSD. It was jobs.
Veterans have a hard time getting hired in the corporate workforce, and their ridiculously high unemployment rates show it. Why?
The corporate world doesn’t understand how military skills and training apply to their businesses. And, military men and women don’t do a good job of translating it for them. They don’t understand how to ‘sell’ themselves for the job.
Once that communication barrier is broken, military veterans get access to the jobs and the salaries they deserve.
To help them achieve that, Career Confidential has created what we call Mission: Transition.
Mission: Transition is a step-by-step, comprehensive job search and interview training system.
It teaches transitioning military personnel how to ‘sell’ themselves to the corporate world. It trains them in all of the vital skills they need:
- how to write a resume
- how to get interviews
- how to job search long-distance (it works from anywhere in the world)
- how to communicate their value in those interviews
- how to sell their skills to hiring managers at civilian companies
- how to negotiate compensation and benefits
I’ve taught these skills to thousands of now happily-employed job seekers who were stunned at what their job search looked like without these skills and what it looked like after they learned them.
Over the last 4 years, Career Confidential has successfully trained more than 12,000 job seekers in over 70 countries. The results speak for themselves….job seekers who struggled for months and even years get hired at great jobs in a matter of just a few weeks—often with multiple offers.
Nothing changed for those job seekers except for getting training in job search and interview skills. That skill-building process changed their lives.
You can help get this vital training to a deserving veteran—or hundreds of deserving veterans. You can make a personal, positive, life-changing difference for one of America’s heroes by giving them the kind of wildly successful job search they deserve.
How?
By partnering with Career Confidential, you can purchase anywhere from 1 to 100 to 1000 Mission: Transition job-getting kits.
For every kit you purchase and donate to a veteran, Career Confidential will donate one, too.
Together, we can make a difference in the lives of hundreds or even thousands of vets.
The first job they get after leaving the military sets the bar for every job they get after that. It’s a critical first step that reverberates throughout their lives.
If you’d like to get even more involved, consider hosting a career event for veterans.
If you set up a career event, I will come and spend the day with participants as a career coach. I will work with them, teaching and training them on how to get a great job very fast. AND, I will give them a Mission: Transition kit for free.
I would love to discuss either idea with you, or any other you might have to help support our troops.
