How and Why We Serve the Military Community and Their Families
Here at Tenet, your service can continue making a difference for civilians as well as you and your family. We believe our values, the driving force behind our work, play a vital role for our veteran team members to make the most of the skills they’ve learned in the military to build stronger communities.
These values extend to family members who have access to exceptional benefits and programs including our Military Spouse Program. You have served us proudly. Now it’s our turn.
Whether you’re just starting in your transition to civilian life or are looking for the next step in your career, our large network of peers – veteran and civilian alike – are ready to stand by you and your family in support of your journey.
Making You and Your Family’s Next Mission a Success
We’re prepared to help you and your family transition while you launch a civilian career you’re proud of. Through our vast array of resources including tools, training, mentors, and support programs for military families – there’s always someone ready to help when you join Tenet.
Support for Our Teams
One of the ways Tenet supports those who have served is through an Employee Resource Group (ERG) called Tenet SALUTE, which stands for Support, Advocacy, Leadership, Unity, Training, and Empowerment. The SALUTE ERG aims to build a community that promotes veterans’ interests in the workplace, fosters camaraderie, and highlights and leverages veterans' unique skills and expertise within the organization. Over the past couple of years, the SALUTE ERG has sponsored a guest speaker series on veteran issues, participated in military/veteran recruiting and led local veteran initiatives across the country.
Transition Your Resume
Your position in the military brings unique skills that can apply to the civilian workplace. The following tips can help paint the picture for recruiters reviewing your resume on how those skills apply to the role you’re interested in.
Identify Your Core Value
Think beyond the specific function your military role carried out – look at the broader picture. For example, carrying out high priority objectives with minimal room for failure demonstrates to recruiters your leadership skills, attention to detail, and ability to work under strict deadlines.
Show What Translates
Military careers often have closely related civilian equivalents. Make sure to include any technical skills you developed during your service – they’ll help you stand out as a candidate.
Highlight Team Talents
From high-ranking officers and unit commanders to teammates and subordinates, the military requires working with a variety of personalities. The interpersonal skills you learned to complete your tasks are just as valued in the civilian workplace.
Display Military-Grade Leadership
Leadership experience or training acquired through the military is highly valued by civilian employers. Prepare examples of how you can bring the best out of the people you work with.
Find Camaraderie in Our Team
Veterans hold many positions across Tenet, from Associate Administrator to VP of Hospital Operations and Hospital Chief Executive Officer. Here’s what our veterans have to say.
I’m a 12-year Air Force veteran. Like serving in the military, Tenet healthcare offers the opportunity to continue serving others, supporting patients in need, and improving lives, which aligns with my values of duty and service. Tenet offers diverse career paths, from administrative roles to hands-on patient care, so veterans can find positions that match their experience and interests.
