Alorica Named to 2015 Military Friendly Employers List

Alorica, a worldwide leading provider of customer management outsourcing solutions, announced today that it has earned the 2015 Military Friendly® Employer designation by Victory Media, publisher of G.I. Jobs® and Military Spouse. Alorica is committed to hiring military talent, knowing first-hand that recruiting from the military community can lead to a strategic competitive advantage.

"Earning a spot on the Military Friendly Employers List underscores Alorica's commitment to connecting business opportunity and military talent in local communities," said Marianne Strobel, vice president of the AloriCares initiative at Alorica. "The diverse set of skills former military members and their spouses bring to the workforce make them a unique asset to any organization. We're honored to provide multifaceted veterans' programs that complement the training and skills gained from military service."

AloriCares is a veterans and military spouse corporate initiative of Alorica. AloriCares offers programs supporting employment, leadership training and development, educational scholarships, sponsorship and mentoring for individuals with military experience. Ten percent of Alorica's global workforce are veterans and military spouses, and the company plans to expand AloriCares in 2015 to reach more veterans and their families.

Companie competed for the elite Military Friendly Employer title by completing a data-driven survey, which evaluated the strength of company military recruiting efforts, percentage of new hires with prior military service, retention programs for veterans and company policies on National Guard and Reserve service. There are approximately 5,000 companies eligible for the 2015 Military Friendly Employers List, but only three percent earn the honor.

"The 2015 Military Friendly Employers represent the preeminent tier of companies with strong military recruitment programs and meaningful job opportunities for transitioning service members and spouses," said Sean Collins, vice president for Victory Media and a nine-year Navy veteran. "Our Military Friendly Employers constitute the group of companies moving the needle and realizing significant benefits by hiring from the military community. This year's group of companies reported hiring over 155,000 service members and spouses over the last 12 months, representing a 35 percent increase over last year and an average of 15 percent of total new hires."

Now in its twelfth year, Military Friendly Employers is the premier resource for transitioning service members and spouses seeking civilian employment. Alorica will be showcased along with other 2015 Military Friendly Employers in the December issue of G.I. Jobs magazine and the January 2015 issue of Military Spouse Magazine, as well as on MilitaryFriendly.com.
