Military and Veterans

Developing Your Career - Together

David Weekley Homes values our military Veterans’ service to the country, but we also choose to hire Veterans because of the skills and experience they bring to the workforce. We partner with our internal Teams and various external organizations to hire Veterans who share our organization’s core values and drive for excellence to successfully contribute to our Team.

Veterans possess important traits that we seek in candidates, such as:

  • Shared values: integrity, desire to be the best, pursuit of excellence, loyalty and servant leadership
  • Service attitude
  • Ability to work with a diverse group of people
  • Leadership skills
  • Work ethic
  • Goal oriented
  • Ability to adapt

While Veterans have proven successful in a variety of positions across the company from the office to the field, some opportunities we’ve found to align well with service experience include Builder/ Construction Superintendent and Warranty Service Representative.

Resume Tips for Veterans

Help us better evaluate how your military background translates to our opportunities by applying the following strategies:

  • Have someone without a military background review your resume to ensure it can be understood by civilians
  • Modify military terminology and acronyms to civilian terminology
  • Include your accomplishments, as well as the actions, skills and traits you used to achieve the end result
  • Limit your resume to 1-3 pages
  • Share squad or platoon accomplishments and your role in achieving them, along with any quantifiable data that you were responsible for

Here’s what a few of our Veteran Team Members had to say about David Weekley Homes:

AJ Bautch, Air Defense Artillery to Builder in Orlando
“David Weekley Homes is clearly committed to bringing in Veterans, and it is important to me. I am very thankful for you and the Team Members around me.”

Cole Ballard, Cavalry Scout to Project Manager in Houston
"The sense of community and family at David Weekley Homes is superior to that of any other company I have seen."

Rich Carr, Water and Liquid Fuel Systems Engineer to Business Systems Analyst I in HST
“In my role, I implement a lot of change to existing systems and processes, and the military prepared me well for understanding the difficulties of change and how best to approach the matter.”

Laurie Wright, Military Police to Communications Coordinator in HST
“It’s refreshing to be a part of a company that really values their Veterans and uses their past military experience as an asset and not a liability. The core values of the Army and David Weekley Homes are so closely aligned, it makes for an easy transition.”
