I am excited to announce that we’ve partnered with Service 2 Software, a registered 501c(s) organization that exists to equip service members with the necessary skills to gain employment in the technology industry.  This partnership gives us a great opportunity to support our veterans while also providing skilled talent to our growing team.

S2S is an official program under the DoD SkillBridge initiative. The SkillBridge initiative provides job skills training to transitioning service members during the final six months of their duty. The service members continue to receive their military pay and benefits from the government while participating, so the service member bears little or no cost during the transition process. 

 “Companies struggle to find driven individuals with sales-ready skills that are the necessities to help them grow their business.” said David Hester, Service 2 Software Co-Founder and CEO. “For the service members, it’s a no brainer. We are the only program of its kind to help break into sales roles. We’ve partnered with rapid growth companies and provide service members with sales training from the top 1%.”

Through this partnership, we were introduced to Courtney Quinn.  Courtney is supporting our sales and marketing initiatives as well as outbound sales efforts at TaxConnex. She is embedding herself in the technology, culture and knowledge within the company in order to gain additional sales, marketing and technology experience during her remaining 5 months of service, while providing valuable help to the business.

“Service 2 Software has changed my outlook on transitioning out of the military by helping me find a path that suits me best and giving me the tools to learn about the industry and sharpen my skills,” explained Courtney Quinn.  “I am so thankful to be working with the S2S program and to be partnered with TaxConnex to gain the experience and knowledge to be even more successful in my career transition.”

Accountability, excellence and service are three of our core values at TaxConnex, and we believe S2S exemplifies those within their mission and ability to provide training and promotion to our active and retiring service men and women.

Courtney, welcome to the TaxConnex team!
