“Organizations earning the Military Friendly® Employers designation have wholeheartedly invested in comprehensive and impactful initiatives that bring about positive, life-changing results for our valued service members, dedicated military spouses, and esteemed veterans within their ranks,” said Kayla Lopez, Senior Director of Military Partnerships at Military Friendly®.
“We salute these exemplary employers who raise the bar and understand that hiring military personnel is not merely an act of goodwill but a testament to a standard that truly embodies sound business wisdom. Their steadfast commitment to integrating military personnel into their workforce not only reflects their compassion but also underscores their business acumen.”
The Military Friendly® Employer designation is awarded to institutions after a thorough evaluation process that involves both public data sources and responses from a proprietary survey. More than 1,200 companies took part in the 2024 Military Friendly® survey.
The methodology, criteria, and weightings were established by VIQTORY, with valuable input from the independent leaders of the Military Friendly® Advisory Council, who are experts in military recruitment. The final ratings were derived by combining an organization’s survey score with an evaluation of the organization’s capacity to meet benchmarks for Recruitment, New Hire Retention, Employee Turnover, and Promotion & Advancement of veterans and military employees.
Regions Bank will be featured in the 2024 Military Friendly® Employers in the Winter edition of G.I. Jobs® magazine and on the MilitaryFriendly.com website.
