Vienna, V.A. — SteerBridge, a leading technology company, expressed their deep gratitude for the prestigious award nomination by Hiring Our Heroes, a renowned organization dedicated to supporting veterans and military spouses in their career pursuits. The nomination, which comes after years of partnership with Hiring Our Heroes (HoH), acknowledges SteerBridge's commitment to bringing top-quality veteran and military spouse talent to the private sector.

Each year, Hiring Our Heroes recognizes the tremendous contributions of those who have developed and applied best practices for addressing the employment challenges faced by veterans, transitioning service members, and military spouses.

"The Lee Anderson Veteran and Military Spouse Employment Award is presented to a company or organization for overall excellence in hiring, training, and retaining veterans, transitioning service members, and military spouses," said Hiring Our Heroes. "Whether through its own work or philanthropic efforts, a successful nominee takes a comprehensive approach to creating economic opportunities for veterans and military spouses and works to close the civilian-military divide. Efforts may include up-skilling/re-skilling opportunities, apprenticeship programs, employee resource groups, HR training efforts, volunteer opportunities for veterans in local communities, and other efforts to empower veterans and military spouses as they search for meaningful careers."
