So what do companies need to do to attract, retain and support military-connected employees?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">That will be the focus of the first <a href=\"https:\/\/employingusvets.com\/\" target=_blank>Employing U.S. Vets Conference<\/a>, which will include panels and wide-ranging discussions centering on the <a href=\"https:\/\/employingusvets.com\/agenda\/\" target=_blank>challenges employers face and effective tactics they can use<\/a> when pursuing veteran employees.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The conference will be cohosted by Military Times and <a href=\"https:\/\/vetsindexes.com\/\" target=_blank>VETS Indexes<\/a>, a company that creates financial investment products based on the Military Times <a href=\"https:\/\/rebootcamp.militarytimes.com\/news\/employment\/2018\/05\/07\/the-100-best-employers-for-veterans-in-2018\/\" target=_blank>Best for Vets: Employers<\/a> rankings.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cWe\u2019re really looking to bring together the best practices of all industries and organizations \u2026 to share their tools, how they can collaborate, and to build some relationships among industry leaders,\u201d said Nick Antaki, VETS Indexes\u2019 director of marketing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">It will be held at the New York Athletic Club in New York City on May 30, 2019, and include representatives from the Defense Department, the West Point Association of Graduates, the Society for Human Resource Management and dozens of major companies, including Amazon, Capital One, Kaiser Permanente, Nike, Walmart and more.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Chris Cortez, Microsoft\u2019s vice president of military affairs, will deliver a keynote address. The conference panels will include speakers like Carol Eggert, Comcast NBCUniversal\u2019s senior vice president of military and veteran affairs and Liz O\u2019Brien, senior director of the Military Spouse Program at Hiring Our Heroes, a U.S. Chamber of Commerce Foundation initiative.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Panel topics will include recruiting new veteran hires, helping employers understand how a veteran\u2019s military experience translates to civilian jobs, retaining vet employees and supporting military families.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Recent Bureau of Labor Statistics <a href=\"https:\/\/rebootcamp.militarytimes.com\/news\/employment\/2019\/04\/05\/vet-employment-stays-high-and-steady-in-march\/\" target=_blank>employment data showed<\/a> that post-9\/11 veteran unemployment in March 2019 was 3.1 percent and overall veteran unemployment was only 2.9 percent.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Karl Snyder, VETS Indexes\u2019 chief marketing strategist and a Marine Corps veteran, emphasized the conference\u2019s partnership with <a href=\"http:\/\/veteransonwallstreet.com\/\" target=_blank>Veterans on Wall Street<\/a>, an organization dedicated to helping employ veterans in the financial services industry.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">He also highlighted the fact that Rosalinda Maury, the director of applied research and analytics at Syracuse University\u2019s <a href=\"https:\/\/ivmf.syracuse.edu\/\" target=_blank>Institute for Veterans and Military Families<\/a>, will participate in one of the panels.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cWe have other groups and people realizing that this is an important and serious event, where we\u2019re talking about something important to a lot of people,\u201d Snyder said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Three Military Times employees will moderate panels: Christine Aquino, vice president of business operations with Sightline Media Group, the parent company of Military Times; Leo Shane, Military Times\u2019 deputy editor; and George Altman, editor of the Military Times transition publication <a href=\"https:\/\/rebootcamp.militarytimes.com\/news\/employment\/2019\/04\/05\/vet-employment-stays-high-and-steady-in-march\/\" target=_blank>Rebootcamp<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Service members separating from the military have relied on the Military Times Best for Vets rankings for years, using them as a guide to land civilian jobs with companies that understand and appreciate their talents. The rankings are based on an exhaustive, 90-question survey that takes an <a href=\"https:\/\/rebootcamp.militarytimes.com\/\/rankings\/2018\/05\/07\/best-for-vets-employers-2018-methodology\/\" target=_blank>in-depth <\/a>look at companies\u2019 vet recruiting, retention efforts, support for military families, culture and other factors.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cWe\u2019re very excited to announce Military Times\u2019 first-ever veteran employment conference,\u201d said Altman, who has worked on the Best for Vets rankings since 2012.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cFor a decade, Military Times has surveyed companies on veterans employment, through our Best for Vets rankings,\u201d Altman said. \u201cThis conference gives us \u2014 as well as Best for Vets companies \u2014 the chance to share best practices, so that more vets can find great post-military careers.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Military Times will receive a portion of fees generated from investments in <a href=\"https:\/\/rebootcamp.militarytimes.com\/news\/employment\/2018\/04\/10\/new-fund-lets-investors-back-companies-that-are-best-for-vets\/\" target=\"_blank\">VETS Indexes products<\/a>. However, the rankings on which the investment products are based are <a href=\"https:\/\/rebootcamp.militarytimes.com\/news\/employment\/2018\/05\/30\/military-times-partners-ring-nasdaq-bell\/\" target=\"_blank\">not controlled or influenced<\/a> by VETS Indexes, participating companies or advertisers. The editorial independence of the rankings is guaranteed in a written contract.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Snyder and Antaki said they are looking forward to all the conversations featuring folks from many types of industries, who will all be gathered with the goal of trying to employ more veterans.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cI hope [companies] will have enough ammunition to walk away and feel comfortable enough to start their own veteran-hiring initiatives,\u201d Snyder said.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Employing U.S.
