About

Operating its West Coast office at 2825 Dewey Road in Liberty Station, Point Loma, San Diego, Hire Heroes USA is a nationally ranked veteran-employment nonprofit that provides free, one-on-one career coaching, resume revision, and job-placement services to transitioning service members, veterans, and military spouses. The San Diego presence, established in 2013 with a Call of Duty Endowment grant, positions the organization inside the Liberty Station arts and nonprofit corridor — minutes from the transitional-housing and benefits-navigation resources at Veterans Village of San Diego on Pacific Highway. Since its 2007 founding, the organization has served more than 62,000 clients nationwide, generating an estimated $2.3 billion in cumulative economic impact and maintaining a Charity Navigator four-star rating with a 100-percent accountability score. Each client receives a revised resume as a baseline, followed by ongoing coaching in interview technique, personal branding, networking strategy, and civilian job-market navigation — services that complement the readjustment counseling available through the San Diego Vet Center off-base. A volunteer corps of mentors from partner companies conducts mock interviews and career counseling sessions, extending the coaching pipeline beyond paid staff into a network of more than 200 veteran-hiring employers. The most complex client engagements involve service members separating with combat injuries or non-traditional military specialties, where translating classified or highly technical experience into civilian language requires iterative resume development and targeted employer introductions.
