J.B. Hunt on the recruiting trail

 

You may or may not know, but J.B. Hunt is always on the lookout for talent!  The photo with this article was taken on July 28^th in a Naval Flight hanger at Ft. Dix, NJ attending the Hire Our Heroes (HOH) Career Fair hosted by the U.S. Chamber of Commerce.  At this career fair we spoke to candidates about ALL of the opportunities we had available from driving, office, and maintenance.  Hire our Heroes career fairs are put on for service members, and veterans to find employment after they have served (they plan to host over 1400 events nationwide in 2014) is just one of the many opportunities we use to find great people!  As we get closer to the fall we have put together a college recruiting schedule of institutions and career fairs we plan on attending and or speaking at.  This is a great opportunity for you to get out of the office, and help us bring more great people to our company.  We regularly attend classrooms, and speak to students about the transportation industry, and are represented at general career fairs throughout the country.  If you think this is something you might want to help out with or are alumni of one of these schools, even better!  Be sure to check with your chain of command, but we always welcome those who would like to participate and spread their experiences with those who want a future with JBH!  Below is our current fall college recruiting schedule for 2014, and a link to Hire Our Heroes list of events.  Matt Kaczynski – NE Regional Human Resource Manager
