Booz Allen’s Partnership with Hiring Our Heroes

Booz Allen is the #1 host company for Hiring Our Heroes fellowships in 2024.

Who is eligible to be a fellow?

According to Hiring Our Heroes, the following people are eligible for a fellowship:

  • A service member on active duty or transition leave; must be within 180 days of transition from military service at the time of the 12-week program
  • A current or previous military spouse who is unemployed or underemployed
  • A caregiver for wounded, ill, or injured veterans including spouses, parents, family members, and friends

What types of fellowship programs does Booz Allen host?

  • Corporate fellowship (for transitioning service members)
  • Military spouse/caregiver fellowship

How frequently are fellowship cohorts offered?

We offer fellowships three times per calendar year: in January, May, and September. Each program lasts 12 weeks (about three months).

“I’m deeply grateful for the Booz Allen Hiring Our Heroes Military Spouse Fellowship. It provided me with a transformative opportunity to realign my skillset, demonstrate the value I can bring to Booz Allen, and affirm my ability as a military spouse to secure meaningful employment, supporting a mission that, in turn, supports my service member and family.”

Where are the fellowships located?

While the Hiring Our Heroes fellowship program operates out of 17 locations across the United States, we are able to place fellows anywhere in the country, either virtually or in person. As a fellow, you can participate remotely, hybrid, or onsite.

How do I apply to the fellowship?

To be considered, you must apply directly with Hiring Our Heroes to join an upcoming fellowship cohort.

How does Booz Allen select fellows?

We typically host about 50 fellows per cohort. Booz Allen host teams invite fellows based on their skillsets and desired post-fellowship geographic locations or work models (remote, hybrid, or onsite).

Host teams, skillsets, and locations vary in each fellowship cohort, and applying to the fellowship does not guarantee selection to a fellowship program.

Does the fellowship lead to a job at Booz Allen?

Since 2018, 74% of our fellows have chosen Booz Allen as the place to launch their civilian careers after the program. In the past year, 90% of fellows received full-time offers and 79% have accepted full-time employment with us.
