Tech Groups Look to Vets for Growing Employment Needs

Tech isn’t the only association group interested in targeting this sector

The path forward for the technology industry in 2017 appears to involve encouraging vets to join the sector in a big way.

This week, the Consumer Technology Association announced that it would hire Jennifer Taylor as its vice president of U.S. jobs with a goal of pushing veterans to find careers in the tech sector in a big way.

CTA already has an existing platform focused on this area called U.S. Tech Vets, which it launched with the assistance of the Northern Virginia Technology Council (NVTC), Monster.com and Military.com. During her tenure, Taylor will continue to build out the platform and work to encourage HR professionals to hire more vets.
