Educate yourself, don't be lazy. ☝️Sometimes the best option isn't the easiest one. Henry Dockerty answers a question we were recently asked at an event. 👇"How can we educate military personnel and help them understand the valuable opportunities that are available in tech before they leave the forces?"He explains how service leavers should use the time they have during resettlement to map out their options. And for employers? It's about understanding the level of training military candidates have, and making sure they're advertising their roles in the right places. 👀Check it out, and get in touch with the team if you want to know more. #MilitaryHiring #Veterans #ServiceLeavers

What I want to say when I hear a company representative say "We support our veterans, but this candidate does not have any real-world experience".Attention all veterans seeking a career!Military service is a real-world experience! It requires whole-person commitment, not just a 9-5 job. If a company can't see that, then it's not built to develop its people, but to exploit their experience.Instead, look for companies that value you as a whole person, not just the pieces they can use. Remember, there's a big difference between corporations. Stick with the ones that truly see your value.#veterans#militaryexperience#careeradvice
