Walmart Announces Plans to Hire 'Any Veteran' Who Applies
Walmart has certainly faced its share of PR struggles over the past few months, but today the big-box leader announced an initiative that no one in his or her right mind could oppose: Beginning on Memorial Day, the company will have a job waiting for any United States military veteran who decides to apply.
The project only includes a couple of qualifiers:
- Vets must apply within the first 12 months of discharge
- Discharge must have been honorable
According to initial estimates, this will equal about 100,000 new jobs over the next five years.
