I was especially pleased to see that Angela gently reminded readers to ignore their "inner voices"- the ones that whisper that you shouldn't have to make the (MOS) translation and that the job seekers should be the ones to make the effort to write their profiles so a civilian could understand them.

And since I am compelled to privately thank folks who write interesting articles several times a month I did what I usually do when I don't know someone, I use the internet tools at hand to track down their phone number and call them directly (I've been doing this since well before the internet).

The reason I'm outing Angela is that while it took me only a moment, I found her contact information on a job posting to a job board devoted to the hiring of disabled military, Warriors to Work. Her posting on this job board included her email address as well as her phone number. She could have simply linked those interested back to her ATS. She didn't. Kudos.

I love people who walk the talk.

Recently I started a group, "Recruiters - Lending A Hand" on Recruitingblogs.com where I'm looking for more stories to share  about how recruiters and industry staffing professionals are making difference. Charities, initiatives, education, etc. Feel free to join in.
