Military/Veterans
When you transition out of the military, you're ready for a new mission.
We recognize the exceptional leadership, teamwork and problem-solving skills that make veterans so valuable to our organization. We have hundreds of veterans who contribute to our team in roles as diverse as the perspectives they offer.
From onboarding to career development to leadership opportunities, we’re prepared to help veterans thrive at HDR.
Mentorship and Career Planning
We offer mentoring to help you navigate your new career as well as programs to plot out a roadmap for your career growth.
Veterans Employee Network Group
Through our Veterans Employee Network Group, we connect veterans, military family members and non-veterans to a community within HDR. This group offers opportunities to recognize and celebrate your distinguished military career and support your transition to a successful civilian career.
Continuing Education
Through a variety of self-guided learning opportunities, virtual instructor-led programs and collaborative in-person training, we provide opportunities to expand your technical knowledge, develop your business skills and expand your professional horizons.
Hiring Our Heroes
We proudly participate in the Hiring Our Heroes workforce development program. This 12-week U.S. Chamber of Commerce Foundation fellowship program connects service members, veterans, military spouses and military caregivers with hands-on employment opportunities.
Veterans In Business Network
We are a corporate member of the VIB Network, which helps veteran-owned businesses build connections with corporations, government agencies and prime contractors to build partnerships for contracting opportunities.
Career Opportunities
HDR Honored by ASLRRA

Honoring Our Veterans
We honor the service of our global military veterans and what makes them valuable coworkers.
"At HDR, our Veterans Employee Network Group is open to all employees, both veterans and non-veterans, who would like to celebrate and learn from each other’s diverse backgrounds and experiences."
"Intentional, motivated teamwork is one of the cornerstones in the foundation of a successful organization. Whether here at HDR or in the military, teamwork is what will propel an organization to success. It is a principle that has and will stand the tests of time."
"I have worked at HDR for more than 10 years after serving in the U.S. Navy for over 20 years. HDR has numerous veterans throughout the company, many in senior leadership positions. Without question, HDR values workforce diversity and is committed to hiring and retaining former military personnel."
"As a military spouse, we are used to standing side-by-side with our service members through their own careers, but it is so refreshing to have a company stand by me through my own."
"For me, the parallel of an employee-owner at HDR to serving in the U.S. Navy is seen in our matrix organization that gives us reassurance that we are a team with a network of support available to you and your task."
