home increases and each time these heroes
return to their motherland, it is expected that
there are a few who succumb to

3. Over the past few years, the number of
veteran friendly employers has drastically
increased.
Before 2003, the percentage of veteran
employment opportunities was just around 60
percent, but when the advocacy to provide
employment to these veterans has started, it
increased dramatically.

4. Today, the percentage of companies
providing veteran employment opportunities
has grown to 138 percent.
These companies are not only hiring during
the Veteran's day though, they are hiring all
year-round. Thus, ensuring those that retire
from the service still has a chance at a normal
and active life in the society.

5. Why Are They Hiring Veterans?
These veteran friendly employers aim to not
only support the government and the local
advocacy groups' efforts to reinstall these
veterans to the society, but also to harness
the potential that these disciplined individuals
have.

6. Aside from the 138% growth in companies
hiring veterans, there is also a growth in the
amount of budget for military recruitment in
companies to around 268 percent.
The increase of interest in hiring veterans may
be due to the fact that companies have
realized the enormous potential that these
veterans' training, experience and expertise
can provide the companies.

7. Their ability to adapt to different working
situations and environment as well as the business
strategies and productivity of these highly
focused individuals are also a valued asset.
These veteran friendly employers also value the
fact that most of these individuals are able to
work well with a different kind of people
regardless of the background and educational
level of those people. These values are the
reason why veteran employment opportunities
abound.
