Military transition and career services
Vets2Industry monthly networking circuits (Virtual via ZOOM)
Vets2Industry provides free networking events with other veterans/spouses and employers each month. Connect on LinkedIn or join the Facebook Group. They also have a free resource library for the military community – active, guard, reserve, veteran, military-spouse, dependent children, Blue-Star & Gold-Star Families, and caregivers – so they know which organizations provide free services and benefits. V2I also serves to break the circle of ignorance by listing companies that have opportunities for veterans, those that have specific military hiring programs, those that are on the 100 Military Friendly companies list, and those that selflessly provide Fortune 500 mentors for a year to transitioning service members through their partnership with American Corporate Partners. The goal is to educate all 220,000 to 240,000 transitioning service members each year and their dependents on free resources to ease their transition and life needs, and more importantly, provide hope.

Military Technical Recruiting
Technical recruiting doesn't have to be a one-size-fits-all solution. Most recruiting agencies are steadily moving away from a relationship based business model and moving towards automation and high volumes. We believe that recruiting is a people first business. Success is built on strong relationships and personal interaction with the people behind the job opening and the candidate profile, not automation of the process. This is the entire reason Military Technical Recruiting was formed. Connect with MTR: https://www.mtr.vet/
