Hanover, Md. (May 21, 2024) – Aston Carter, a leading talent solutions company specialized in accounting, finance and corporate talent, announced today that it has been named a Military Friendly® Employer and a Military Friendly® Spouse Employer, securing a top 10 spot among employers in its size category for both designations. These accolades—which Aston Carter also received in 2023—are awarded to a select group of organizations for their commitments, efforts and successes in creating sustainable and meaningful employment opportunities for the military community.
“The Aston Carter team has gone to great lengths to cultivate a welcoming culture for the military community—and it’s heartening to know those efforts have not gone unnoticed,” said Olakunle Arowolo, director of diversity, equity & inclusion. “We’ve made it our mission to align the unique talents of veterans, military spouses and service members with job opportunities they can truly feel passionate about. It’s a privilege to help them chart new paths in their professional journeys.”
Aston Carter ranked in the top 10 based on results conducted by service-disabled, veteran-owned marketing company VIQTORY with input from the Military Friendly® Advisory Council of independent leaders in the military recruitment community. Final ratings were determined by combining an organization’s survey score with an assessment of the organization’s ability to meet thresholds for applicants, new hire retention, employee turnover, and promotion and advancement of veterans and military employees.
“Organizations earning the Military Friendly Employers designation have wholeheartedly invested in comprehensive and impactful initiatives that bring about positive, life-changing results for our valued service members, dedicated military spouses and esteemed veterans within their ranks,” said Kayla Lopez, Senior Director of Military Partnerships at Military Friendly®. “We salute these exemplary employers who raise the bar and understand that hiring military personnel is not merely an act of goodwill but a testament to a standard that truly embodies sound business wisdom. Their steadfast commitment to integrating military personnel into their workforce not only reflects their compassion but also underscores their business acumen."
