It always hurts me when I see a veteran business go under. Two great veterans I know and respect, who have worked tirelessly to build their businesses have flipped over this week. They are in a whirlwind of hurt right now. I feel for them. And I am frustrated.
The main problem with new business owners is capital. They have a great idea, but they may not have the funds to support themselves for the length of time it takes to make them profitable. That is where HirePatriots.com can help them tremendously.

I like Craigslist. It is a great site that serves an important utilitarian purpose. And they also support local charities. The purpose of this comparison is not to denigrate Craigslist in any way. But too often I hear business owners and hiring managers tell me, “I post on Craigslist for the same price.” So I have written this post to highlight the numerous advantages to posting your jobs on HirePatriots.com that Craigslist does not offer, and to encourage you to post on HirePatriots.com too.
The similarity that we share is that HirePatriots.com and Craigslist have inexpensive and free job postings. The...
HirePatriots.com is far more than just a job board for veterans. We touch the lives of millions of Americans that may not have even heard of us. HirePatriots strengthens local economies. It is a powerful educational tool for teaching love and duty to country. We unite communities in helping their local veterans to reintegrate into society after serving in the military. We assist senior citizens, and provide affordable labor and repairs for people who otherwise could not afford it. We use TV, radio, the press and the social networks to promote patriotism and honor for those who risk their lives...
Hire Patriots is an organization that I recently got involved in. Hire Patriots is a 501(c)(3) organization that provides a wealth of services to military members and their families including: transitional assistance; job fairs, military marriage retreats, and financial wellness seminars; as well as providing career and personal counseling: http://www.hirepatriots.com/news-and-blogs/entry/hirepatriots-programs-for-us-veterans-and-their-families
By far, the most important program is www.HirePatriots.com, which provides a national employment safety net for US veterans and their spouses. Participating communities receive a customized website and job board for area businesses and individuals to hire their local veterans, both for full-time employment and as day laborers. Tens of thousands...
My wife and I recently went to a couple of locations where local US veterans were working at some one day jobs taken from HirePatriots.com. The great thing about these opportunities is getting to meet and listen to the personal stories of the US vets that are being assisted by our outreach. It is very encouraging and inspiring. This time we got to meet 3 veterans that were already out of the military.
One was an officer in the Special Forces. He is a part time professor with a doctorate. He has a good pension and does not take these...
Despite having a proven work ethic, and a multitude of valued skills many military servicemen and women are having difficulty finding a civilian job. Projections are being made for over 1 Million servicemen and women to leave the military over the next 5 years. Moreover, according to the U.S. Chamber of Commerce Foundation currently 10% of post-911 veterans are unemployed, and the number jumps up to 30% for veterans under the age of 25.
To address this trend, many organizations have implemented programs to help veterans transition to civilian careers. One of these programs is Patriotic Hearts. This non-profit...
Any individual can be placed in a position of leadership. For example, you can walk down the street, hire the first person with a bachelor’s degree and position them in a management role – something I wouldn’t recommend – however, placing that person in a position of power doesn’t ensure that they will make a good, or even effective leader.
Hiring managers want leaders to hold more than a piece of paper; they want them to be socially influential, charismatic, and most importantly, a leader that can utilize their attributes to bring the parts of the whole together. In other words,...

HirePatriots offers online and on-site training seminars for transitioning military personnel and US veterans.

HirePatriots' goal is to develop relationships with businesses that help us both. We seek to work with our sponsors in an active way to achieve their goals in recruiting US veterans.

HirePatriots goes far beyond only posting your jobs or just adding your banner to a web page. HirePatriots takes action. First we take your job postings and share them on Twitter, Facebook and LinkedIn. Then we create a permanent page about your company and the positions...
Our non-profit is "Patriotic Hearts." We host welcome home parties, marriage retreats, job fairs, financial wellness training, and transitional preparedness classes for US veterans, as well as resume writing, job placement and career and personal counseling.
But our one-of-a-kind, premier program is HirePatriots.com. This unique job board has received awards from both President G.W. Bush and President Obama. And San Diego gave it its Visionary Award for stimulating the local economies. This is a simple idea; and yet, it is profoundly powerful. It creates an employment safety net for US veterans in communities across America.
In addition to providing a robust...

It is our most critical responsibility to promote an undying affection for America and the unprecedented principles upon which we are founded to each new generation. And this inspiration must continue throughout the life of every US citizen. Patriotic Hearts is dedicated to that purpose.
Patriotism is “a love and devotion for one’s country.” It is the foundation of any enduring nation. It supercedes political, racial, religious and cultural differences. And it must. Patriotism is an identity shared by every member of a society. -- We are “Americans.”
We are a unique nation because of our immense diversity of races, ethnicities,...
This is a quick post to tell you how to protect yourself and your personal information while using our Career Jobs Board. Recently I have received messages and emails about text messages being sent to those users who have submitted a resume to our Career Jobs Board. HirePatriots will NEVER send a text message, or call your cell phone. These are attempts at PHISHING. In case you are not aware of what that term actually means, PHISHING is an attempt to acquire personal information such as usernames, passwords, and even credit card details - to include money.

An April 1st edition of People Magazine published an article that talks about the hero’s among us. First and foremost it recognizes our Veterans who have returned from the service facing a high unemployment rate. It then discusses the challenges too many face and how it impacts their families; while some other families help out by providing one day jobs. And it introduces the Baird’s, who own Hire Patriots, and the sacrifices they have made to help our Veterans as a part of the community. Then there are the businesses like People Magazine who supports our Veterans through donations and full-time...
