Volunteering Helps Advance Your Career!
NEW YORK, July 31, 2013 — According to a new survey from Deloitte, human resources (HR) executives agree that skills-based volunteering enhances the job prospects for graduating college seniors and returning military veterans. Yet, despite challenging economic times, less than half of the college students (46 percent) and military personnel (48 percent) surveyed think of volunteering at a nonprofit as a way to develop skills and gain the experience needed to land a future job.
The 2013 Deloitte Volunteer IMPACT Survey polled HR executives, college seniors and military veterans. According to the HR executives surveyed:
- Skilled volunteer experience makes a job candidate more desirable (76 percent)
- Skilled volunteer experience makes a college graduate more desirable (81 percent)
- Skilled volunteer experience makes a serviceman more desirable (78 percent)
