POWER YOUR TRANSITION: ENERGY CAREERS FOR VETERANS

ENERGY EMPLOYERS ARE HIRING

Energy employers are hiring; in fact, job demand within the sector is projected to remain strong for the foreseeable future as the industry prepares to hire several million people to support the energy evolution. Immediate opportunities exist for those looking for employment in trade and technical roles, engineering positions, IT and cyber paths, and on the business side of the house. With 11% of the sector’s workforce made up of veterans, it’s obvious that many former military personnel have found their second (or third or fourth) career in energy.

On April 1, Troops to Energy Jobs held a webinar for veterans who find themselves in need of search of new career opportunities. Industry veterans spoke about why they have found their professional passion in energy and what steps they took to translate military experience into the foundations of their energy career path.

THERE HAS NEVER BEEN A MORE EXCITING TIME TO WORK IN THE ENERGY INDUSTRY THAN RIGHT NOW

That’s because innovation, security, system reliability and resiliency, technology, and modernization are at the forefront of daily action. There are positions for those who want to work in business functions, technical roles, skilled trades and apprentice positions, and as engineers. Because so many veterans work in the industry, most energy companies have structured programs to help former service professionals onboard and assimilate easily. From peer mentors to Employee Resource Groups to a national organization that unites all veterans in energy, our industry’s business leaders are eager to attract, train, and retain veterans.
