Transitioning Veterans Fly Free for Job Interviews

Providing veterans the essential tools to succeed in today's workforce

“Hire Our Heroes (HOH) provides a free, round-trip ticket to transitioning veterans going on job interviews anywhere in the country that Southwest airlines flies.”

HOH will provide a free round trip airline ticket to any transitioning veteran interviewing to secure a job without the means to travel to and from the interview. The idea here is to support small to medium size businesses by allowing them to tap into an untapped market of talent that they might not typically have access to, due to budget constraints. In addition, this allows transitioning veterans the opportunity to interview and secure opportunities prior to making the final transition back into the civilian world.

HOH hopes that by providing these benefits to all transitioning veterans, the odds of securing employment are greatly increased. Please confirm your eligibility by clicking on the “Troop ID” logo at the top of this page and submit your credentials.

About the Wounded Warrior Amputee Softball Team:
“1-2-3, Warriors!” That’s the pre-game cheer for the national Wounded Warrior Amputee Softball Team (WWAST), a group of veterans and active-duty soldiers who lost limbs in Iraq and Afghanistan. Thanks to modern prosthetic technology, they are able to compete at high levels by wearing prostheses that allow them to hit, run, catch and throw. This month marks the team’s three-year anniversary. WWAST has a winning record of 98-46 and has played in 28 states and 67 cities.
