  • Driving Business Success with Military Hiring

Orion Talent CEO Sarah Peiker recently joined Meghan M. Biro, Founder of Talent Culture, for a #WorkTrends podcast episode, Diversity, Inclusion & Business Success with Military Hiring. Their discussion centered on the growing talent shortage and the increasing prioritization of diversity and inclusion, both of which can benefit from the hiring of veterans.

In the episode, Sarah covers why veterans may be overlooked as a valuable talent pool by some companies and what obstacles, real or perceived, keep employers from hiring veterans. Sarah counters these misconceptions by listing both the unique mindset veterans bring to the workplace, as well as the unexpected advantages employers gain when they hire them.

Sarah and Meghan go on to explore ways in which companies that are interested in hiring veterans can begin to hire military to close the talent gap, and then help those veterans thrive in their civilian careers.
