Frontdoor, a home service warranty provider, has partnered with Service 2 Software to offer job training for 10 military veterans through the Department of Defense's SkillBridge Program. The initiative aims to leverage veterans' leadership qualities for growth in business roles and provides hands-on civilian job experience in a remote work setup.
Frontdoor, Inc. (FTDR), a leading provider of home service warranties, has announced a strategic partnership with Service 2 Software, a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization, to offer job training for 10 military veterans through the Department of Defense's SkillBridge Program [1][2][3]. The initiative aims to leverage the leadership qualities of veterans for growth in business roles and provides hands-on civilian job experience in a remote work setup.
The collaboration will see the veterans gain valuable experience working alongside Frontdoor's sales, product development, and marketing teams. Frontdoor, which adopted remote work policies in 2020, will provide a flexible working environment for the participants. The program is part of the Department of Defense's SkillBridge Program, which is designed to provide service members with practical experience in the civilian workforce [1][2][3].
Bill Cobb, Chairman and CEO of Frontdoor, expressed his enthusiasm about the partnership, stating, "It’s deeply gratifying to us to be able to help empower these veterans as they transition into civilian life and embark on a new career path. Their discipline, tenacity, and passion are bedrock leadership qualities that will help growth and innovation for companies and communities alike" [1][2][3].
David Hester, CEO of Service 2 Software, highlighted the significance of the collaboration, stating, "This collaboration represents not just another training partnership; it’s a movement toward redefining how businesses tap into the leadership, grit, and adaptability of our nation’s service members. We believe military experience translates to unmatched value in the workplace. Frontdoor shares that belief, and together, we’re opening new doors for veterans to thrive in business roles" [1][2][3].
Frontdoor, with its extensive experience in home warranties through brands like American Home Shield and 2-10 Home Buyers Warranty, continues to support transformative initiatives that bridge the gap between military service and civilian careers [1][2][3].
