As thousands of service members transition to civilian careers each year, they represent a valuable and sustainable talent pipeline for an industry seeking skilled professionals to meet both current and future workforce needs.

NAED is committed to helping members connect with military talent by building partnerships that increase awareness of careers in electrical distribution, strengthen military recruitment pathways, and provide practical resources that make it easier for distributors to engage this highly qualified talent pool.

RecruitMilitary is a leading military recruitment organization dedicated to connecting employers with transitioning service members, veterans, National Guard and Reserve members, and military spouses.

Central Region Virtual Career Fair

Online hiring event was designed specifically for military veterans, transitioning service members, and military spouses.

"Our first RecruitMilitary virtual event was a great experience. We connected with approximately a dozen military candidates and received applications for both cybersecurity and supply chain positions that continue to move through our hiring process. The platform was easy to learn, and the virtual format provided a high return on investment with minimal time away from day-to-day responsibilities. We appreciate NAED's partnership and support in helping us participate." — DSG (Dakota Supply Group)
