[ March 18, 2017   //   Gary G Burrows ]

USA Truck Inc., a leading capacity solutions provider headquartered in Van Buren, Arkansas, is a finalist for the 2017 Most Valuable Employers for Military. Awarded by RecruitMilitary, MVE recognition serves to help military-experienced job seekers identify the top employers to target for civilian careers.

“Nearly 30% of our driver team members are U.S. military veterans,” says James D. Reed, president and CEO. “Clearly, we put a premium on hiring veterans, and we’re honored to have our efforts recognized by such a prestigious organization.”

RecruitMilitary is a national leader in helping employers connect with high-quality veteran talent. MVEs are selected annually based on those employers whose recruiting, training and retention plans best serve military service members and veterans. The award marks its ninth edition in 2017. Winners will be announced in the May issue of RecruitMilitary’s Search & Employ magazine.

“Hiring veterans just makes good business sense,” said Peter Gudmundsson, RecruitMilitary president. “It is evident that companies across the country see the value that veteran talent brings to the table by this year’s list of MVEs. I congratulate each of the finalists on their veteran hiring strategies and for their selection.”
