HigherOut Launches HigherOut Hero Program
There is a Hero in Higherout.
AUSTIN, Texas — Sept 1, 2008 — HigherOut, a strategic consulting and recruiting firm providing a full-range of workforce management solutions, today announced its HigherOut Hero Program. The HigherOut Hero program was founded in 2008 by HigherOut President Jeff McAdams, a veteran of the U.S. Air Force and Texas Air National Guard, to help veterans secure a bright future. Jeff understands how to help fellow veterans by maximizing the skills they have acquired in the service to land worthwhile careers. Jeff has also hired a number of military veterans to his own staff.
Today, military veterans are returning home from wars in Iraq and Afghanistan eager to go back to normal life and start their civilian careers. Unfortunately, the current economic crisis has made the search for employment a battleground of its own. The U.S. is also witnessing the highest number of disabled veterans returning home, greater than Vietnam, and more than ever these and other returning veterans need help establishing a career so they can live comfortably and provide for their families. The HigherOut Hero program is fully funded by HigherOut, with no cost to the veteran or employer.
“The goal is to give veterans a transition into civilian employment that is as smooth as possible,” said Jeff McAdams, “We (Americans) promised we’d take care of these folks if they took care of us, they did, now it is time to make good on our end.”
Companies receive substantial benefits from hiring today’s military veterans, who have the leadership, drive, character and skills needed for today’s demanding job market. Veterans are able to overcome challenges in the workplace by drawing upon disciplines and strategies learned during their time in uniform.
