A former U.S. Marine and founder of HandyVets, Inc gives five reasons to hire veterans: (1) members of the military can quickly learn and master new skills; (2) members of the military must react quickly and accurately in a wide variety of situations; (3) military training teaches servicemembers to work effectively as leaders and as members of a team; (4) veterans have learned to work side-by-side with individuals with unique backgrounds and capabilities; and (5) veterans have strong personal integrity. Ethics and a sense of honor are ingrained in servicemembers. For more information, read the VA VAntage Point Blog.
