Like many Americans, veterans were hit hard by coronavirus-related layoffs in 2020. By the end of the year, veteran unemployment had nearly doubled, according to the Bureau of Labor Statistics.
But one Florida-based nonprofit found the means to help veterans affected by the pandemic adjust to the unstable job market, a way that analyzes more than just their resume and other traditional ways of finding employment. The Sapna Foundation teamed up with Wired2Perform to help veterans in need using its people analytics platform.
Wired2Perform says it’s more than just human resources software. Although human resources is its core competency, it uses behavioral science and analysis to help employers find talent using a holistic profile of potential job candidates. It s a purpose-driven proactive people performance management platform,” according to its website.
