Hunt's Heroes | J.B. Hunt TransportHiring military Veterans is a company-wide effort at J.B. Hunt, and we are dedicated to employing 10,000 Veterans by 2020. We value your character and what you bring to the transportation industry – hard work, devotion, intelligence, leadership and aptitude.

Under our Hunt’s Heroes division and as a Department of Labor Apprenticeship Program provider, we offer a number of hiring and mentoring programs that employ Veterans and transitioning soldiers, as well as military spouses.

Our most well-known programs fall under our J. B. Hunt National Apprenticeship Program – the Hunt’s Heroes CDL-A Hiring Program and Military Finisher Program. The first caters to Veterans across all MOS codes who are interested in pursuing professional driving as their civilian career, while the latter is a fast track program for those who have experience driving heavy equipment during their service time.

Through the CDL-A and Military Finisher programs, Veterans are paid a stable income while they complete orientation, driving school, and behind-the-wheel training. They assume their responsibilities at either a local (home daily) or regional (home weekly) Dedicated Contract Services or Intermodal fleet. As a participant in our 12-month J. B. Hunt National Apprenticeship Program, one may also be eligible to receive a GI Bill Monthly Housing Allowance (MHA) payment from the VA in addition to his or her paycheck.
