AT&T Recruiting Service Men and Women



AT&T has launched a nationwide effort to recruit military veterans for approximately 3,000 job openings.  Nearly 200 of these jobs are in Los Angeles ranging from technical to sales management to U-verse systems.  The company has set up a special website to facilitate job applications by service men and women:  http://att-veterans.jobs/.  

“Every year AT&T hires hundreds of military veterans to join our team,” said Jace Barbin, AT&T Vice President and General Manager of the Greater Los Angeles Region.  “The self-discipline, teamwork and skills gained as part of our armed forces allow for an easy transition to a career with AT&T, where many of those same values are part of our everyday culture.”  

AT&T has a long history of supporting the military, dating back to World War I, and recruits top military talent for all levels of the company through a variety of programs. It also helps military employees adjust to their new civilian positions through mentoring and training.
Veterans can access the AT&T job openings via the special website that includes a Military Skills translator that allows veterans to use their current Military Occupation Code/Military Occupation Specialty to find out what civilian jobs at AT&T would be a good fit for them.
