Why Get a Military Friendly Employers® Rating Now?
We’re in a recession, right?
You’re not hiring right now, right?
So becoming known as a "Military Friendly Employer®" isn’t really important now, right?
Think again. Think long term.
The U.S. Department of Labor forecasts more jobs than people to fill them over the next few years. In fact, it
forecasts a 12 million person labor shortage by the year 2012. Establishing and growing your military recruiting
program now gives you the upper hand in recruiting the best talent pool in the country.
And getting recognized as a Military Friendly Employer® should be the keystone of that program. Your company may be more
military friendly than you think. But you can only find out if you complete our survey.
