A Must Read For Our Troops in Transition & Veterans
Presented by Hiring Our Heroes, U.S. Chamber of Commerce,
and the George W. Bush Institute
The purpose of the Veteran Employment Transition (VET) Roadmap is to provide
transitioning service members and veterans a resource so that they are better equipped to navigate that landscape and succeed in the civilian workforce. The VET Roadmap captures
and consolidates essential steps with best-in-class resources and tools.
THE TRANSITION PROCESS FOR VETERANS IS A LIFETIME PROCESS THAT CAN BE DIVIDED INTO THREE ESSENTIAL PHASES: PREPARE, TRANSITION, AND LEAD.
VET Roadmap Addresses Challenges
• A communication and culture gap between veteran job seekers and employers
• Lack of military service member preparedness for finding civilian employment
• Stigma related to mental health concerns and ongoing service commitments (National Guard and Reserve components)
• Ability of both veterans and employers to match and translate military skills, qualifications, and experience to civilian job requirements
• Barriers stemming from credentialing and licensing requirements
• Financial instability and veteran acclimation to civilian life and workplace
