Justin Constantine on Veteran Employment
SHRM's Tony Lee is joined by Justin Constantine, a motivational speaker, Marine combat veteran and a leading voice in the veteran community. He’s involved in all kinds of veterans’ initiatives, including SHRM’s HireVets platform. He is also the only guest on All Things Work to have been shot in the head. Tony and Justin discuss why they think HR professionals don't often look at veterans when hiring and why that trend is reversing, why companies shouldn't be so rigid in hiring only veterans with college degrees, the recent changes in how AI is used to match veterans to jobs, Justin's work with SHRM and how to retain veterans once you've got them in the door.Mentioned on the podcast: JobPathPlease subscribe to All Things Work on Apple Podcasts, Google Play, Spotify, Stitcher, TuneIn or wherever you listen to podcasts.
