It was your mindset, your mission. So why stop now? In the national landscape, it is clear that health services is an infinitely growing and developing field. The Bureau of Labor Statistics even identified the industry as having the fastest employment growth in the country, adding more jobs than any other industry through 2024. And for veterans, it's a simple choice for near-guaranteed career advancement in the civilian sector. According to Avery King, military veteran and military spouse talent acquisition lead at Hospital Corporation of America, "The soft skill I see most valuable would be service to others. In the military, people take care of each other; this skill transfers over into health care as we care for both our co-workers and our patients." Your unfettered commitment to America and its well-being has been obvious. Now it's time to take that commitment and put it to work in the civilian sector. COMMITTED TO CARE The booming health care industry is the perfect place for veterans to continue serving.
