I will answer your question.
In my experience, it is not about hiring managers' deciding that, because they are military members, they don't want to hire them. That is not my experience.
My experience is that there is truly a lack of awareness, particularly among those who have not had reserve time, regular force time or a large amount of exposure to military members. It is really a lack of awareness of those skills, competencies and leadership qualities that military members have. They simply don't understand. That is why I don't think it's in the realm of hiring managers' saying, “No, because they're military members, we don't want to hire them.” I actually do not believe that.
I really believe that if we can provide people, through either mentoring or coaching, with information about what a military member can do for them, that would be the best thing we could do.
