Why Hire a Veteran

Qualified veterans bring enhanced skills to the workplace.
Their experience and dedication to working as a team and accomplishing the mission are all facets of daily ASC operations.
California also has more military bases within its borders than most states: 40 bases are in CA, some from every military branch
Each year there are hundreds of thousands of service members separating from the military.
Veterans have many transferrable skills outside of healthcare experience and bring a lot to the table.
Many would love to work in the healthcare industry but don’t know how or aren’t familiar with ASCs.
