Raytheon’s Case for Hiring Veterans:

Experienced in using our technology, products, and services. Familiarity with our customers and their missions. To recognize our veterans for their contributions to our

company, as we share a mutual bond in our desire to help protect our country and our families.

An integral part of our Diversity & Inclusion focus. They bring technical and leadership skills, enhanced through

military experience, that can be applied to our positions. Many have security clearances through DOD or other

agencies, and all have integrity and ethics. It’s the right thing to do for our Nation’s service members!

Operation Phoenix Our approach to attracting, recruiting and retaining veterans

and their spouses and/or caregivers to Raytheon. Working to leverage the enterprise for attracting military talent

through our Talent Acquisition (TA) efforts:– RTN attends veteran-related career fairs, hiring expos, and outreach

events each year across the country. (Look locally and near VA & DOD facilities too!)

– TA is seeking to capture our outreach efforts & to be more “systematic” in order to yield positive, measureable recruiting-results. (ie: Interviews & Hires!)

– RTN’s outreach & recruiting, support, and involvement with military related associations, advocates, and government agencies are growing rapidly

Tips to Consider:

Don’t seek to source or network at DOD/VA hospitals. (They’re for healing not hiring.)

*Wounded Warriors; *Service-Connected Disabilities. HR-Build a “Vet Mentor” network internally to help new

veteran-hires, but don’t get hung up on “process.” Think about workforce development & careers for vets. Vets trust vets: Advocate for & use your vet-team both

internally & externally. Be creative… Leadership commitment is ESSENTIAL for success. Our “USBLN Network” is invaluable- Reach out!
