In honor of Veteran’s Day and to support those who’ve served, Job-Hunt has identified 20 military-friendly employers that hire veterans, as well as industries known to support veteran hiring. The companies highlighted below not only offer job opportunities, but also value the qualities veterans bring to civilian roles.
Recruitmilitary.com says: “One hiring professional we spoke with calls veterans “Leaders in a box,” remarking, “They fit just about everywhere. Most are college-educated, many served under strenuous circumstances, saw combat action, and can use resources well.” What could be better than that?”
Today more than ever, employers are looking for workers who display discipline, leadership, and commitment – all qualities that military and veteran employees are known for. Hiring veteran just makes good business sense.
