“As veterans ourselves, we are proud of the ability to offer a means of support in this way, and are excited to be providing a place where veterans can connect with employers who are specifically looking to hire veterans,” comments HOH Founder, Dan Caporale.
Caporale was a Platoon Sergeant and Satellite Communications Specialist, who spent 8 years in the United States Marine Corps. He founded Hire Our Heroes in following his years in the Marine Corps., along with Tim Kirk and Paul Magness, they are now recognized as leaders in efforts for today’s transitioning veterans.
This online job board comes at a pivotal time for veterans as ‘the unemployment rate for veterans aged
18-24 is a staggering at 20.5%. On top of that, there are over 10 million veterans, including 1.6 million service-disabled veterans, who are currently out of the labor force,’ as noted on The Departments of Labor by Assistant Secretary for Veterans’ Employment and Training Service, Keith Kelly.
As troops begin to come home from Afghanistan and the United States continues to downsize their military forces, the DOL expects the population of veterans to increase by as many as 200,000 each year over the next five years. Knowing this, Hire Our Heroes is determined to provide secure opportunities for employment where the veteran population can cultivate their talents, traits, and attitudes for years to come with the assistance of the job board platform.
