Australian Defense Force veterans could be perfect to join your ranks!

Veterans who are no longer serving in the Australian Defense Force are a diverse and highly skilled source of talent, often having skills in risk management, critical thinking, planning and evaluation, and leadership. Many of these skills and capabilities are readily transferrable to the civilian workforce.

The Veteran Employment Commitment (VEC) recognises organisations for their current workplace policies and practices that support veteran employment. It offers guidance to implement or enhance veteran employment initiatives, aiding in better recruitment and retention of veteran employees.

If you’re interested in hiring veterans, consider signing your organisation up as a Veteran Employment Commitment (VEC) signatory and gain access to advice on how best to attract veterans for your roles.
