APS Plans to Recruit, Hire Veterans
by Ryan Randazzo / The Arizona Republic

Faced with as many as 200,000 retiring engineers, power-plant operators and other employees in the next decade, the utility industry is reaching out to military veterans to bulk up its workforce.  Arizona Public Service Co. is among five utilities that announced the Troops to Energy Jobs program Monday to recruit, train and employ military veterans.
"We've had good results with veterans," President and Chief Operating Officer Don Robinson said, adding that APS employs about 700 veterans, or about 10 percent of its workforce.

"They are well-trained, adaptable, know how to lead a team and are used to changing conditions. We've had really good success hiring veterans."

The other utilities working on the initiative through the Center for Energy Workforce Development are Dominion, American Electric Power, Southern Co. and Pacific Gas and Electric Co.

By Sept. 1, Robinson said the utilities will be recruiting veterans and will provide details then regarding how to apply for jobs at APS. The jobs will be throughout the company, from power plants to energy delivery, technology, finance and communications.

"The other thing that is very appealing to us is that we have a very strong safety culture," Robinson said. "As you look at veterans, they come in with the same mind-set. They are used to looking out for each other and the people around them. The culture they bring as it relates to safety is very consistent with what we have."

Robinson said that utility jobs are good for veterans because they offer competitive pay and benefits.

"We also have an environment that encourages employees to learn more and expand their skill sets," he said. "We have an internal system that allows employees to bid on jobs in different areas so they can get to different areas they would like. We pay for tuition reimbursement for those trying to get degrees in many areas."

Robinson said that about 40 percent of the current APS workforce will be eligible for retirement by 2014.

During a news event in Washington, D.C., to announce the initiative, Energy Secretary Steven Chu noted that veterans have an unemployment rate of about 11.5 percent, or about 2 percentage points higher than average.

Anthony Herrera, an executive recruiter for APS who will manage the initiative and who served in the Marines from 1997-01, said veterans can use the program. "When you are getting out of whatever branch of service you are in, they don't provide a lot of training for transitioning into the civilian sector," Herrera said. "This initiative gives a clear line of sight for a veteran to gain skills to become employable."

The vets will get mentoring and career coaching from within and outside of APS. Some careers at the utilities will not require additional training, while others will require some additional education to prepare the vets for their jobs, Herrera said.

One of the areas where APS will need additional employees is the Palo Verde Nuclear Generating Station.

Many Navy veterans will have the background that makes them good nuclear candidates.

"Anyone, regardless of the job you do, if you served on an aircraft carrier or a submarine, you have the fundamental knowledge the nuclear industry looks to adopt," said Deon Clark, a Navy veteran who recruits for Palo Verde. "You have to be familiar with radiation-protection techniques."
