Changes in military recruiting may endure after pandemic

COVID-19 has had a dramatic impact on military recruiting, closing enlistment stations and forcing thousands of recruiters to woo potential soldiers online, or even on their front steps.

It’s added an extremely hard challenge to an already very challenging job and mission.

Dramatically I would imagine. The face to face communications/High School visits. College visits. Community Canvas Recruiting. You could still use cyber communication and emails etc...but having the face to face commo makes it most difficult for an average recruiter...
