Bridging the Gap: Veterans & Job Clusters

The US faces critical workforce shortages in Critical Sectors, like Energy and Manufacturing. This map reveals where the jobs are and will be — and where the talent could come from.

Veterans from nearby military bases bring leadership, technical, and operational skills aligned with high-demand civilian roles.

Portability of Skills, Critical Industries, and Labor Shortage. How is it all connected?

Industry demands are evolving faster than ever, with new equipment entering the market every month. Traditional training methods, focused on specific machines or tools, struggle to keep pace —contributing to a growing skills gap across Critical Sectors.
  • Transversal Talent Pool

    Instead of chasing the latest gear, PowerTechs identifies transferable, cross-sector skills and cultivates a flexible, future-ready talent pool. This strategy enables rapid adaptation, drives operational efficiency, and builds long-term resilience.
  • Future Job Clusters and Military Bases

    We also bridge the gap between future industry clusters and nearby military bases, aligning skilled veterans with emerging opportunities where their experience and abilities are in high demand.

Who would be rather hired?

You have two people who look the same on the resume, but when you assess them with PowerTechs, you see that they are really quite different. It differentiates things that a resume can’t.

In fact, both Alex and John have managed a team of 5 people, both have operated an airplane for two years, etc.

Resumes make Alex and John look identical: same roles, same experience. PowerTechs reveals the truth: Alex excels in analytical thinking (100) and problem-solving (100), but struggles in technical aptitude (30). John is steady at 75 across all skills.

How It works
  • Step 1: Screening and Skill Assessment
    We introduce military veterans to a virtual environment familiar to them, such as a battlefield.
  • ... or a navy submarine, for example.
  • Step 2: Skill Mapping and Portability of Skills
    While they solve practical challenges, PowerTechs platform measures their real skills from the military that they can apply to civilian jobs.
  • Step 3: Re-Skilling
    While they solve practical challenges, PowerTechs platform measures their real skills from the military that they can apply to civilian jobs.
  • Step 4: Up-Skilling
    And thatʼs when we start training and upskilling them.
  • Results: Smart Rankings
    Companies get rankings with the best match candidates, and a very granular picture of their existing transferable skills.
  • Results: Training Plan
    Candidates and employees get an action plan to fill their gaps. Individually.
  • Results: Skill Passports
    Skill passports look like traditional resumes but demonstrate the real skills identified via practical challenges.

Cognitive Technology

We use systems and tools that mimic or augment human cognitive processes, such as reasoning, learning, problem-solving, and decision-making. It’s rooted in AI but focuses specifically on emulating human-like thinking, often by processing vast amounts of data to identify patterns, make predictions, or generate insights.
  • Transversal Talent Pool

    Cognitive technology uncovers hidden potential by looking beyond resumes or self-assessments, enabling individuals to discover strengths they didn’t know they had.
  • Quick Results

    This can lead to better job fits, career growth, or personal development, especially for those who undervalue their abilities.

Real Skills vs. Resume Assessment

Real Skills vs. Resume: Alex’s Profile

Comparing resume-based skills (incomplete, exaggerated) with cognitive tech (VR/XR) assessment to reveal true potential.

Resume-Based Skills

Skills listed on Alex’s resume, missing latent skills and exaggerating others.

Real Skills (VR/XR Assessment)

Full skill profile, including latent skills, detected via VR/XR simulations and cognitive analysis.

Career Impact

Alex’s resume listed technical aptitude and leadership, exaggerating leadership while omitting analytical thinking and problem-solving skills. Cognitive tech, using VR/XR simulations (e.g., troubleshooting tasks) and analysis of task logs, revealed his true strengths, including latent analytical skills from his Aviation Branch (MOS 15B) experience. This enabled a 2-week training program for an Equipment Maintenance Technician role and placement within 1 month, ensuring a better job fit and career growth.

Skill Assessment Comparison

Skill Assessment Comparison for Alex

Comparing resume-based vs. cognitive tech (VR/XR) assessments to uncover transferable skills.

Resume-Based Assessment

Skills listed on Alex’s resume, often incomplete or undervalued.

Cognitive Tech Assessment (VR/XR)

Skills detected by cognitive tech, including latent skills, via VR/XR and analysis.

Career Impact

Alex’s resume listed basic technical and communication skills, missing key strengths like analytical thinking and leadership. Cognitive tech, using VR/XR simulations and data analysis, uncovered these latent skills from his military experience (e.g., troubleshooting in Aviation Branch). This enabled a 2-week training program for an Equipment Maintenance Technician role in energy, with placement in 1 month, building a versatile talent pool for rapid industry adaptation.
