This week on the Eye on Veterans podcast, we talk about a free resource that helps veterans meet hiring managers before they even apply. More than just a job board, 7 Eagle Group founder Jordie Kern created an online community where job seekers jump on Zoom calls directly with executives seeking veteran talent.
We discuss how multiple daily Zoom sessions allow vets to talk directly to these hiring executives, like a career matchmaker.
We also hear how 7 Eagle utilizes the DoD Skill Bridge program to allow service members to work within these companies for a short time, like a career test drive before leaving the military.
And we explore why veterans may be happier when they consider careers outside of their military occupational specialty, like the skilled trades, small business ownership and more.
