Our employers understand the value of transitioning military members, veterans and military spouses and that they represent the best this country has to offer.
Onward to Opportunity is designed to build awareness of the soft and hard skills necessary to succeed in different industries while also making the crucial first connection with employers in these industries that are eager to hire veterans. Participants work one-on-one with a Transition Specialist from Hire Heroes USA to refine their resume, practice for interviews and receive additional coaching on how to start a successful career. For graduates of O2O who successfully complete the program’s requirements, a Transition Specialist at hire Heroes USA matches and guides the graduate through the interview process with the program’s employer partners.
This program benefits employer partners by engaging transitioning military and spouse talent earlier in the recruitment pipeline that’s trained to meet their skill needs.
We are honored to be an integral part of easing the transition from military to civilian life for our veterans and their families. We invite you to join our efforts to serve those who have served.
If you are an employer interested in hiring the best and the brightest, contact us below to learn more about engaging in the innovative O2O veterans career training and employment program. You can also email the Employer Relationship Navigator, Ken Mayes, directly at IVMFESS@syr.edu.
We are fortunate to have longstanding relationships with the many private and public sector partners who support the work of the IVMF and programs such as our Onward to Opportunity Program.
