Why Veterans and Military Spouses Choose GovCIO
At GovCIO, service doesn’t end when you take off the uniform. Founded by a Navy Veteran, our company is built on values like leadership, integrity, and mission focus. For us, supporting Veterans and military families isn’t just a program, it’s a part of who we are. From career development to flexible work options, we create opportunities that honor the skills and sacrifice of those who served.
Why Veterans Choose GovCIO
A Culture That Honors Service
Veterans bring unique skills and perspectives, and GovCIO ensures those strengths shine. Mike Blanton, a Navy Veteran, shares that joining GovCIO gave him “a sense of purpose beyond the uniform.” Angelica Contreras echoes this sentiment: “I wanted to continue serving in a meaningful way, and GovCIO gave me that chance.”
Impactful Work
GovCIO supports projects for the Department of Veterans Affairs and Department of War, allowing Veterans to keep serving their community. “I still feel connected to the mission,” says Roger Esteban, who now works as a leader in mission support.
Career Growth and Development
Transitioning to civilian life can feel overwhelming—new environments, new expectations, and uncertainty about what’s next. GovCIO provides resume review sessions, mentorship, and training programs designed to help Veterans succeed. Cynthia’s story is a great example: after attending a resume workshop, she gained confidence and landed a role aligned with her skills. “The advice was actionable and made a real difference,” she says. Roger Esteban agrees, noting that GovCIO’s support helped him navigate the transition smoothly.
Why Military Spouses Choose GovCIO
Flexibility & Stability
Military life can come with multiple moves and unpredictability. Christina Krukar needed a career that could move with her, and GovCIO delivered. Remote roles and flexible arrangements mean spouses can build thriving careers without sacrificing family needs. “GovCIO understands the unique challenges military families face,” Christina says. “I’ve been able to grow professionally while supporting my family.”
Supportive Environment
Military spouses bring resilience, adaptability, and problem-solving skills, qualities we value deeply. Our teams work hard to ensure spouses feel supported, whether through flexible schedules, remote work options, or career development programs.
