Anyone looking to hire employees might want to visit Ex Forces Employment Assistance on Facebook. Many ex forces personnel can tell you how difficult it is to find work in civvy street, I know because I've been there, anyway ex forces tend to be loyal employees... 


Thanks,

An ex-squaddie is for life not just for xmas

Echo Barney, military bods can bring a lot to your business, can be quicker to adapt to new situations than civilian counterparts and have a natural make do/can do attitude, rather than we haven't got the right kit, it won't work.

But they can also take some re-programming when it comes to working hours  I remember wondering why team members thought it was unreasonable to be expected to work 14 hours when dealing with a new project, when I couldn't get my head round the fact I was getting paid overtime
