EquipmentShare Honors National Hire a Veteran Day With Day-Long Recruitment Push and Year-Round Commitment to Veteran Employment

COLUMBIA, Mo.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--In honor of National Hire a Veteran Day on July 25, EquipmentShare is doubling down on its commitment to hiring and empowering America’s heroes. The construction technology company, headquartered in Columbia, Mo., will dedicate the day to recruiting and interviewing veterans, inviting veterans across the country to speak with recruiters and explore career opportunities across EquipmentShare’s 326+ locations.

On July 25, EquipmentShare’s recruitment team will focus on veteran candidates. Veterans interested in joining the company are encouraged to call EquipmentShare’s toll free line at 833-838-1344 or fill out the form at this link to be scheduled for same-day interviews for open roles.

“We’re treating this like a telethon for our heroes,” said Jabbok Schlacks, CEO and co-founder of EquipmentShare. “If you’ve served our country, we want to serve you by helping you find a career where your skills, leadership and dedication will make an impact.”

At EquipmentShare, veterans are building careers. In 2025 alone, the company hired 249 veterans. Dozens of veterans have been promoted within the company, from intern to full-time hire, from driver to technician, and into regional leadership roles. Currently, 57 employees continue to serve as National Guardsmen or Reservists, supported by a culture that honors their commitments.

EquipmentShare’s veteran hiring efforts are powered by strategic partnerships with Hiring Our Heroes (a program of the U.S. Chamber of Commerce Foundation), DoD SkillBridge, and the Department of Labor’s Veterans’ Employment and Training Service (VETS). These partnerships provide pathways for transitioning service members, veterans, and military spouses to join the civilian workforce with confidence and support.

EquipmentShare also has an internal Military Veterans Program (MVP) to guide veterans through onboarding, career development, and ongoing mentorship. Employees in the program are matched with veteran mentors and receive access to customized resources and support.

“Supporting our heroes is built into our culture,” said Schlacks. “We are proud to have hundreds of veterans in our ranks, and we’re excited to grow that number. Veterans make incredible teammates, and our company is stronger because of them.”
