Recruiting Heroes LLC Employment Agency - Your Path to Amazing Careers After Law Enforcement or the Military
First Responders and Veterans are America's Heroes. They believe in sacrifice, dedication, and hard work. They protect those who cannot protect themselves. Our Heroes have gone through extensive physical and educational training. Many have reached high levels of leadership. They know how to work as a team to accomplish a common goal. They are loyal, respectful, and passionate about what they do. They have all the attributes of a perfect employee. We help these Heroes find careers after law enforcement or the military.
The United States Department of Labor sites studies that show that Veterans are more productive and have higher retention rates than their civilian counterparts. This means that recruiting and hiring a Veteran or First Responder will lead to better productivity and less employee turnover for your company. A study conducted by Syracuse University shows that Veterans have abilities that can easily transfer across contexts/tasks, they have advanced technical and team-building skills, and much more (The Business Case of Hiring a Veteran: Beyond the Cliches (syracuse.edu).
Heroes do not only help your company with their skills, commitment, and lower turnover rates; they can also save you money. In 2011, Veterans were added to the list of eligible groups that qualify employers for a tax credit under the Work Opportunity Tax Credit (WOTC - Work Opportunity Tax Credit | U.S. Department of Labor (dol.gov)) program.
