About TVC's Veterans Small Business Growth Initiative (Cont)
Our partner in this initiative, RecruitMilitary, is a “veteran operation” through and through. The company’s founder, Drew Myers, is a former Marine Captain, and 100% percent of its owners, officers, account executives, and recruiters are either veterans or active reservists.
Participation in the initiative is a way of saying to military veterans, “Thank you for your service and sacrifice.”
It is also very good business. Today’s typical soldier, sailor, airman, Marine, or Coast Guardsman/Guardswoman combines
outstanding traits such as leadership, personal initiative, and self-discipline with a strong educational background and excellent training. Most of these men and women work in military occupations that have easily recognized civilian counterparts—for example, “Machine Operator and Precision Work” and “Transportation and Material Handling.” Individuals who have served in combat roles in the military make
excellent leaders in Corporate America.
Participating TVC Members can use RecruitMilitary’s employment mechanisms to post jobs on the RecruitMilitary Web site and to search the RecruitMilitary database of more than
100,000 registered job seekers. The database is highly diverse with regard to branch of the service, rank or rate, gender, and ethnicity.
