SAN DIEGO, Dec. 13, 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- Cubic
Corporation (NYSE: CUB) today announced its designation as a Bronze
Military Friendly® Employer awardee by Victory Media.
The Bronze Award winners have programs that scored within 40
percent of the tenth ranked organization in its category. First
published in 2003, Military Friendly Employers is a comprehensive
and influential resource for transitioning service members and
veterans. Each year, the list of Military Friendly Employers is
provided to service members and their families, helping them
discover the best post-military career opportunities available.
"It is an honor to be recognized for the fifth year as a
Military Friendly Employer," said Darryl
Albertson, chief human resources and diversity officer of
Cubic Corporation. "The Military Friendly Employer designation is a
testament to Cubic's commitment to implementing effective hiring
practices and retention programs to best meet the needs of veterans
and service members as they transition into civilian life."
Over 40 percent of Cubic's employees have military service
backgrounds. Cubic commonly hires transitioning military service
members and veterans for roles such as field and electronics
technicians, information technology professionals, engineers as
well as trainers and instructors.
"Companies that have earned this designation have exceptionally
strong hiring programs and meaningful jobs for transitioning
service members, veterans and spouses," said Daniel Nichols, chief product officer at Victory
Media. "Our Military Friendly Employers have moved beyond answering
'why hire military?' They are truly aligning their jobs and
recruiting efforts with Military Friendly Schools to translate
military competencies into civilian careers."
Companies and organizations earning the Military
Friendly Employer designation were evaluated using three data
sources in the scoring methodology: publicly available data from
federal agencies, personal opinion data from veteran employees and
proprietary Military Friendly survey data from participating
organizations. Ratings methodology, criteria and weightings were
determined by Victory Media with input from the Military
Friendly Advisory Council of independent leaders in the higher
education and military recruitment community. More than 200
companies participated in the Military Friendly Employers portion
of the 2018 Military Friendly Companies survey.
Cubic will be showcased along with other 2018 Military Friendly
Employers in the December issue of G.I. Jobs®
magazine, the January 2018 issue of
Military Spouse magazine and on MilitaryFriendly.com.
