SC&R Foundation Works with HirePatriots.com

January 15, 2014 - The SC&R Foundation has partnered with HirePatriots.com, an organization that connects veterans with employers through a one-day job board and permanent job postings over the internet. Since its launch in 2005, HirePatriots.com has helped more than 500,000 U.S. veterans find employment.

 

The foundation established this partnership in response to ongoing feedback from members of the Specialized Carriers & Rigging Association (SC&RA). Many of these members own or manage companies with an intensifying demand for skilled labor as economic conditions improve at a time when baby boomers look to leave the workforce.

 

The foundation’s landing page informs veterans of opportunities in the industry served by SC&RA members, including  “welders, mechanics, crane operators, dispatchers, drivers, riggers and more.” Such skills are typically developed in the military. A link to the SC&R Foundation can be found in the member directory at HirePatriots.com.

 

Veterans can search for full-time, temporary or one-day jobs by keywords, category, city and state. There are no fees to the veterans, so they keep 100% of what they are paid. Typically, more than 1,000 jobs were posted and 150 resumes are posted online at any time.
