Nearly 33% of Veteran job seekers are underemployed, a rate 15.6% higher than non-Veteran job seekers. Luckily, there are career options out there that allow Veterans to prosper and find meaning, following their time in the service. One of those career options is Information Technology.

Veterans themselves are at an advantage from their service alone, regardless of occupation. Grit, servant leadership, and communication are three key traits that are instilled in veterans that give them the mindset needed to excel and thrive in any work environment.
