Vets Hired is a San Diego-based organization that connects veterans, active duty military personnel, and military spouses with civilian employers. Its core focus is bridging the gap between military talent and the broader job market through a combination of digital tools, employer partnerships, and in-person events. The organization's stated goal is to help 1,000 veterans, active duty personnel, and military spouses secure meaningful employment every day.
The platform operates several interconnected services aimed at military-affiliated job seekers and the employers who want to hire them:
- Job board: Lists over 30,000 opportunities for veterans, active duty personnel, and military spouses seeking civilian roles.
- Nationwide career fairs: Organizes in-person hiring events across the United States, bringing together veteran candidates and employers in a direct setting.
- Employer partnerships: Works with companies committed to hiring military-affiliated candidates, facilitating targeted recruitment and placements.
- Veteran talent marketing: Helps employers recognize and recruit for the skills, discipline, and leadership that veterans bring to civilian workplaces.
Headquartered in San Diego, California - home to one of the largest military populations in the United States - Vets Hired operates with a nationwide reach. Its services are designed for job seekers at all stages of military transition, from active duty personnel planning their separation to veterans and military spouses already in the civilian workforce.
