Job for Veterans
As a veteran you bring a lot to the table, and we not only recognize that but honor your service by providing career opportunities for service members. Your transferable skills as a veteran can help you thrive in your job here no matter what career path interests you.
A Culture of Veteran Support
It’s important for veterans to find a civilian career that knows their worth and respects their expertise. As a top ten military-friendly employer and company founded by a veteran, supporting veterans and programs that uplift them is in our DNA.
Through collaboration with non-profit organizations and groups that honor veterans like Wreaths Across America, we can do our part to recognize their service.
Military Leave and Transition Assistance
As a service member, you should be able to focus on your military responsibilities without having to worry about your civilian career. We provide our employees who serve with a Military Leave Concierge Service to help with deployments, reentry, familial support, differential pay options and more.

“If it wasn't for the SkillBridge program, I don't think I would be where I'm at right now in my civilian life. I honestly don't know what I would be doing if I didn't take this opportunity.”

Maintenance Operations Manager
SkillBridge
We are proud to be a military-friendly employer and one of the ways we uphold that commitment is by participating in the Department of Defense SkillBridge Program. SkillBridge offers service members the opportunity to gain civilian work experience through industry training while still on active duty.
We have SkillBridge opportunities with J.B. Hunt available across the country and on a variety of teams from operations, equipment maintenance and beyond. We are proud to be a part of this program that gives participants the opportunity to make connections, use the skills and expertise gained in the military and get a head start on a lasting civilian career.
Driver Apprenticeship Program
Looking for a career behind the wheel? We are committed to getting veterans into the job that best uses the skills they gained during their service. There are a few ways veterans can join the J.B. Hunt team as truck drivers, including through our Apprenticeship Program or transferable military experience. Those with a Class A license can receive paid on-the-job training that will transition into a full-time position through our Apprenticeship Program.
Those who have military driving experience and the appropriate documentation from their time in the service may be eligible for 100% of time served to count toward the Class A driving experience they need to join our fleet. Your knowledge and skills are valued here.

“They know what we're going through, they know what post-separation is like, and they're here for us every step of the way. And they made me feel like from the start that I had a home.”
