SUMMARY:Monthly Member Meeting - Hiring Minnesota's Heroes
DESCRIPTION:Overall unemployment is decreasing and it's increasingly challenging to find talent to fill the open positions many companies have right now. Yet\, there are talented military veterans with very transferable skills still available. Two reasons usually explain this: Veterans don't know how to transition from active duty and businesses don't know how to hire them. A third contributing reason is the challenge of translating military terms\, acronyms and jargon into language easily understood in the civilian world.\n\n \n\nOnce companies commit to hiring veterans because company decision-makers understand why hiring veterans offer a competitive advantage\, they need a plan to find veterans.\n\n\n\nJoin us for lunch and a panel discussion about how the Minnesota Chamber's "Hiring Minnesota Heroes" initiative can connect businesses with quality workers\, provide one-on-one assistance to develop a plan that fits your business' specific needs and help everyone achieve their goals.
