Make sure you participate in #CODVeteruns100K in #Warzone by 6/3, and follow @CODE4Vets for the latest on The Endowmentโs efforts helping veterans find work ๐
2.8M U.S. service members were deployed to combat zones since 9/11. 53K were wounded & 1,645 lost a limb. The good news is the survival rate is at a historical high and almost all wounded #Veterans lead productive and normal lives both at work and home. https://t.co/GTVDBu9XoY
Does the Government allocate sufficient funding and resources towards the employment of #veterans?
Employment is the lowest funded of any major #Veteran program in the US Government at less than 0.1% of ~$300 billion annual veteran spend. Our most recent cost per placement was $547 which is 10X more cost efficient than US DOL efforts. https://t.co/AB7mpQ4DaK #CODVeteruns100k
Is it true that the military can pull #veterans back to service at any time?
Most #Veterans have fulfilled the minimum service obligation of 8 years, split between active duty and Individual Ready Reserve. Unless they join the National Guard or Active Reserve, they aren't eligible for recall to military service. #CODVeteruns100k https://t.co/Ft37z9wnpx
Are #veterans at a disadvantage when applying for jobs due to their education when leaving the military?
Beyond technical training and certifications earned while serving, which are comparable to those of their civilian counterparts, there are ample opportunities for #Veterans to pursue higher education via fully or partially funded programs. https://t.co/OfnPy71j3F #CODVeteruns100k
Is the turnover rate for #veterans in civilian jobs higher than non-veterans?
According to LinkedIn, #Veterans tend to stay in their first job after military service 8.3% longer than non-veterans, a trend which multiple studies have shown continues across their entire careers. https://t.co/bdya66HGg9 #CODVeteruns100k
Is military experience relevant when #veterans apply for civilian jobs?

Beyond technical training and certifications that apply to many civilian industries, the intangible traits #Veterans develop while in uniform are the top skills employers seek โ leadership, critical thinking, resilience, and communication. https://t.co/xWDqcnUAgc #CODVeteruns100k
In honor of #CODVeteruns100K, we're working with @CODE4Vets to bust some of the biggest misconceptions about veterans in the workplace.
