Connecting Corporate America with America’s Transitioning Service Members
Corporate America faces an ever-growing challenge: finding the right talent in increasingly smaller pools of candidates who are drug free, can pass background checks, have experience, and possess a career focus.
Veterans Work Force Inc. (VWF) provides a solution.
Transitioning Service Members represent one of the strongest audiences from which industries can source technical talent, experienced professionals, and future leadership.
Service Members come from a culture of discipline, accountability, teamwork, and mission accomplishment. They are accustomed to completing the job, adapting to changing requirements, and putting the mission and their team before self.
VWF’s Military Sourcing Solutions connects this talent with Client Companies that understand the value of bringing Service Members into their organizations in numbers that make a difference.
The Right Talent. The Right Mission. The Right Fit.
Talent
Access the Talent
Transitioning Service Members represent an exceptional source of technical talent, experienced professionals, and future leadership.
They bring experience gained in demanding environments where performance, accountability, discipline, and the ability to learn are fundamental requirements.
VWF focuses on connecting Client Companies with Service Members who bring:
- Technical and professional experience
- Discipline and accountability
- A demonstrated ability to perform under demanding conditions
- The ability and willingness to learn
- Leadership experience and potential
- A career-focused mindset
- The ability to work as part of a team
- A culture centered on completing the mission
VWF coordinates sourcing efforts across Military Bases throughout the United States, with the potential to extend programs overseas.
Through hiring forums and events, we bring Client Companies directly into the military recruiting environment, creating opportunities to meet and evaluate transitioning Service Members where they serve.
The talent is there. VWF creates the connection.
Mission
Accomplish the Mission
Every VWF engagement begins with a defined hiring mission.
VWF designs recruiting programs around the needs of Client Companies, subsidiaries, or individual business units. Programs typically establish a defined number of hires over a one-year period, with the option to continue and expand the program as the Client’s needs develop.
VWF executes these programs through hiring forums and events at Military Bases across the United States.
Client representatives participate directly in these events to screen, evaluate, and hire candidates who fit the established profile.
The mission is to create hires that make a difference.
All hires beyond the agreed-upon number and focus are provided at no additional recruiting charge, except for pre-approved expenses associated with conducting the program.
Historically, sector peers achieve a typical success rate of approximately 250% of the established mission by engagement end.
And VWF stands behind the mission.
All hires are guaranteed, up to the established program goal, for one year from the date of hire, with a like candidate provided at no charge should a replacement be required during the guarantee period.
But the mission does not end with the hire.
VWF builds lasting and sustainable networks for the Client’s continued use in future recruiting efforts. These networks become human infrastructure-names, locations, relationships, and an understanding of the candidates and capabilities that can support future networking and recruiting efforts.
VWF also encourages the development of the Client’s internal expertise so that organizations better understand what Service Members can contribute, how to identify the right candidates, and how to bring them into their organizations in numbers that make a difference.
Accomplish today’s hiring mission. Build tomorrow’s recruiting capability.
Fit
Finding the Right Fit
Successful recruiting begins with understanding what the Client actually needs.
VWF defines successful candidates through a common understanding of the Client’s skill-set requirements, organizational needs, and business objectives.
We go beyond the resume.
A Service Member’s military occupation provides only part of the picture. VWF considers the individual’s Military Occupational Specialty, the mission of their organization, the responsibilities of their position, and what they must be capable of accomplishing.
This allows VWF and the Client to evaluate the Service Member holistically.
We identify candidates based upon:
- Military Occupation and technical specialty
- Organizational mission and experience
- Position and responsibilities
- Leadership experience
- Technical capabilities
- Transferable skills
- Individual potential
- The requirements of the Client’s organization
VWF works in concert with Client staff to establish the candidate profile, screen candidates, and identify those who represent the best fit.
The objective is not simply to fill a position. It is to identify the right person for the organization.
