What this list is not. It is a track record, not a job board — the data describes a past filing cycle, so an employer here may or may not be hiring today. Check their careers page. It is also not a ranking of who treats veterans best; it counts hires, which is one honest signal among several.
Self-identification is voluntary. Employees choose whether to disclose protected-veteran status, so these figures generally understate how many veterans an employer really has. That cuts one way only: everyone on this list is at least as good as the number shown.
We filtered out obvious filing errors. Some filings report a veteran hire rate wildly out of step with the same employer's overall veteran workforce — a column filled in wrong, not a recruiting record. Those are excluded rather than celebrated.

Your own filed rate takes thirty seconds to look up — and if there is a gap, closing it is a sourcing problem, which is exactly what we do.
Let Us Make the Introduction
Applying cold works, but a recruiter who knows the hiring manager works better. We place veterans into direct-hire civilian roles nationwide — and candidates never pay a fee.
