Hiring Heroes

When you become a Marine you are taking on a lot of responsibility. You not only put your life on the line, but you embrace all the change you have to face. It could be leaving your family or the transition back to civilian life that can be the hardest…maybe even both!

U.S. vets are trained to do the impossible! Once they commit to finding a career that didn’t involve a gun everyone was just shell shocked. But 27% find re-entry into civilian life difficult. And we would like you to meet the groups helping them to find jobs!

Marines go through rigorous boot camp training both mentally and physically to prepare for active duty. In 2016, 20.9 million American men and women were veterans. Britt is at Camp Pendleton in San Diego to see these Marines transition to civilian lives.

They are taught to treat finding a job just like they do on a mission. It’s a very difficult task, and watching them trying to get the job done is inspiring.
