“Military veterans are purpose-driven and bring a unique set of skills and experiences to Herc Rentals,” said Mark Arell, vice president, talent, and a U.S. Army veteran. “We’re proud to know that our company is a becoming a career destination for military veterans who are shifting over to the civilian workforce, and we are pleased to have welcomed so many who chose Team Herc for their next mission. Our recognition as a Military Friendly Top 10 Employer reflects our ongoing commitment to attracting, hiring and developing our military veterans as well as those actively serving in the National Guard and Reserves.”
