Hiring Veterans: How to Leverage Military Talent for Organizational Growth

Description:

The definitive guide to hiring and retaining members of the military community by the foremost authority on the transition from military to civilian work life.

"Having led the veteran hiring programs at multiple Fortune 100 companies, I can personally attest to the value of the process Matt has laid out in this book. If you or your business leaders seek to leverage the skills and abilities of this nation's military service members, Hiring Veterans is your guide."
--Sean Passmore, Head of Military Talent Strategic Sourcing and Enterprise Military and Veteran Initiatives, Wells Fargo Bank, N.A.

Hiring Veterans makes the clear case for the value of employing members of today's military community. Veterans represent a real-time talent pool of experienced, trained, and dedicated professionals that, when properly harnessed, comprise an instant means of improving your competitiveness and productivity. Case studies of organizations both large and small clearly demonstrate how leveraging a veteran talent-based strategy is a business imperative resulting in organizational growth.

Hiring Veterans covers important topics such as how to successfully:
  • Organize and staff a veteran support program
  • Identify and recruit candidates
  • Onboard, deploy, and retain veteran hires
  • Capitalize on financial incentives for veteran employment
  • Apply for military-friendly recognition programs
  • Comply with regulations impacting veteran employment

Hiring Veterans is a practical guide for prospective employers who want to hire veterans. It addresses this primary question: How can employers better prepare for and employ transitioning service members to improve the productivity and competitiveness of their organizations?

"This book helps give employers the practical tools they need to hire and retain our well-qualified veterans and fully utilize the skills they acquired while serving in the Armed Forces. From leadership and work ethic to managing diverse teams in high-stress environments, our veterans bring to the workforce capabilities that can ultimately prove invaluable to an organization."
--COL Brad Wenstrup, USAR, Member of Congress

Review

"Author Matthew J. Louis is a retired lieutenant colonel from the U.S. Army who currently serves on JP Morgan Chase's external advisory council for military and veterans affairs. In Hiring Veterans, he makes an outstanding case for organizations to actively recruit and hire military veterans. While the focus is on large, for-profit organizations, the book's framework can easily be tailored to smaller and nonprofit organizations as well. In the opening chapters, Louis outlines the many ways in which veterans can enrich the functioning and profitability of an organization. He meticulously maps out a step-by-step plan to position potential employers to fully utilize military veterans' skills and training while minimizing the potential culture shock that some veterans may feel upon entering the civilian workforce. Examples of best practices come from Amazon, Walmart, ADP, USAA, and Procter and Gamble. Detailed appendixes contain a wealth of information regarding pre- and demobilization, sample job descriptions, government benefits, and more. Well written and extremely thorough, this book is a must-have for business collections."
--Jennifer Michaelson, Booklist

A How-to Guide on Reinvesting Veteran Talent

S. · 3 October 2023

Matt has done a tremendous job of collecting and organizing resources and practical applications to maximize veteran talent. Readers will increase their military cultural competencies to better serve veterans in the workplace (attract, recruit, hire, onboard, engage, retain). Many employers want to be veteran-ready but don't know how. This book will inform a unique strategy that any size organization can bring to life. I highly recommend this to hiring managers, DEIB leaders, executives with decision-making authority, and anyone ready to invest in meaningful outcomes for all. Great job, Matt!

I rebranded my company to start to help our Veterans find new careers in IT and Manufacturing - I had a lot to learn about the industry and the book was great at walking me through how a Veterans background/experience can translate to the civilian world. It also provided with a great understanding how a corporation can become a more Veteran friendly company as it goes into great deal on the process you should follow.
