Simply, veterans are good for your bottom line. They bring all the traits that you want in an employee: education, training, values, leadership, teamwork and loyalty.

• Immediate Productivity and Eager Learners
  Veterans become valuable contributors from day one of employment. They have the proven ability to learn new skills and concepts and are used to being challenged, encouraged to demonstrate initiative, and think quickly on their feet. In addition, they can enter your workforce with identifiable and transferable skills, proven in real world situations.
• Leadership
  

The military trains people to lead by example as well as through direction, delegation, motivation and inspiration. Veterans understand the practical ways to manage behaviors for results, even in the most trying circumstances. The real world, front line and often battle proven leadership developed in the military is well beyond that of a similar person in a civilian job.
• Teamwork
  

Veterans understand how genuine teamwork grows out of a responsibility to one’s colleagues. Military duties involve a blend of individual and group productivity. They also necessitate a perception of how groups of all sizes relate to each other and an overarching objective.
• Diversity and Inclusion in Action
  

Veterans have learned to work side-by-side with individuals regardless of diverse race, gender, geographic origin, ethnic background, religion and economic status as well as mental, physical and attitudinal capabilities. They experienced working with many different types of individuals.
• Efficient Performance Under Pressure
  Veterans understand the rigors of tight schedules and limited resources. They have developed the capacity to know how to accomplish priorities on time, in spite of tremendous stress. They know the critical importance of staying with a task until it is done right.
• Respect for Procedure
  Veterans have gained a unique perspective on the value of accountability. They can grasp their place within an organizational framework, becoming responsible for subordinates’ actions to higher supervisory levels. They know how policies and procedures enable an organization to exist.
• Technology and Globalization
  

Because of their experiences in the service, veterans are usually aware of international and technical trends pertinent to business and industry. They can bring the kind of global outlook and technological savvy that all enterprises of any size need to succeed.
• Integrity
  Veterans know what it means to do “an honest day’s work.” Prospective employers can take advantage of a track record of integrity, often including security clearances. This integrity translates into qualities of sincerity and trustworthiness.
• Conscious of Health and Safety Standards
  
Thanks to extensive training, veterans are aware of health and safety protocols both for themselves and the welfare of others. Individually, they represent a drug-free workforce that is cognizant of maintaining personal health and fitness. On a company level, their awareness and conscientiousness translate into protection of employees, property and materials.
• Triumph Over Adversity
  
In addition to dealing positively with the typical issues of personal maturity, veterans have frequently triumphed over great adversity. They likely have proven their mettle in mission critical situations demanding endurance, stamina and flexibility. They may have overcome personal disabilities through strengths and determination.

• Working interview
   
Temp-to-perm allows you to evaluate characteristics that can’t easily be observed through a traditional interview, such as:  ability to follow directions, cultural fit, quality of work, work ethic and the ability to multi-task or work under pressure.
• Reduced hiring time
  
Temp-to-perm candidates have been pre-screened by our staff and qualified to match the needs of your opening.  This reduces your recruiting and interviewing time, so you can focus on your other priorities.
• No obligation to hire
  
When you use temp-to-perm services, you are not required to hire a candidate we send you, even after you interview that candidate.
• Evaluate long-term hiring need
  
If you’re hiring to address recent growth or a newly created position, temp-to-perm gives you the time to verify that the position is absolutely necessary – before adding to your permanent headcount.
• Decreased legal exposure
  
If a temp-to-perm candidate isn’t working out, you can end the assignment at any time.  Because the candidate remains an employee of the Veteran Staffing Network, your legal exposure is minimized.
• No advertising restrictions
  Using temp-to-perm services does not preclude you from advertising the position elsewhere.

There are specific tax credits available to employers that hire military veterans. The Returning Heroes Tax Credit for companies that hire unemployed veterans gives a maximum credit of $2,400 for every short-term unemployed hire and $4,800 for every long-term unemployed hire. The Wounded Warriors Tax Credit will increase the existing tax credit for companies that hire veterans with service-connected disabilities who have been unemployed long-term (maximum credit of $9,600 per veteran) and continue the existing credit for all other veterans with a service-connected disability (maximum credit of $4,800).

We can assist you to achieve maximum credit.
