INDEPENDENCE, Ohio–()–Alliance
Solutions Group, a full-service recruitment agency with offices in
Cuyahoga, Summit, Portage, Franklin, Lorain and Wyandot counties under
the Alliance Staffing Solutions name, has launched a new business unit
developed specifically for returning servicemen and women. Alliance
Military Placement Solutions (AMPS) is designed to help former
military personnel ease back into the civilian workforce by helping them
find jobs that will build upon the skills they’ve acquired during their
military service.
“Corporate HR executives and hiring managers
are sincere in their desire to employ veterans, and we believe that AMPS
can be a catalyst that provides those more rapid, more productive
matches.”
Company President Aaron Grossman explains, “We created AMPS because
we’ve seen that sometimes it’s harder or more complicated for a
returning military veteran to find a civilian job than you’d expect. The
culture is different, the military terminology of their work experience
is different, and sometimes corporate HR executives don’t immediately
understand how their military skill translates into the open positions
they have. Our intention is that AMPS will shortcut that process.”
AMPS will operate as one of eight specialized business units within
Alliance Solutions Group. Each unit focuses on a specific niche, such as
engineering, financial, healthcare or industrial positions, with
dedicated recruiters and staffing consultants focused on the needs of
those candidates and employers. Grossman said that model has driven
rapid and sustained double-digit growth for his 11-year-old company, and
he expects the AMPS focus on the military community will bring the same
advantages to veterans.
“By embedding ourselves in a market or community, we’re able to more
accurately understand the needs of both employers and candidates, which
in turn leads to a better match between the candidate and the job skills
required,” he explained. “Corporate HR executives and hiring managers
are sincere in their desire to employ veterans, and we believe that AMPS
can be a catalyst that provides those more rapid, more productive
matches.”
Grossman added that he feels a sense of urgency and priority behind his
new business unit that drove him to invest in the initiative. “At the
end of the day, I think we all believe returning servicemen and women
deserve our respect and gratitude,” he said. “Now that they’re home and
working hard to re-enter our communities, they need our help to move
quickly from military to civilian employment. They’ve supported their
country. Now it’s time for us to support them.”
As part of the AMPS launch, Grossman has also created a nonprofit
organization to accept financial and in-kind support from area
corporations that want to support military job recruiting efforts. “Many
executives we talk to want to do more than just post a job, but to offer
additional services such as resume improvement and interview training
and coaching. The Working Soldier Foundation acts as the nonprofit
entity to receive those contributions so we can convert those into
needed services for our veterans.”
